Some new molds. I'm especially fond of the quail egg mold and the Anpanman onigiri molds (my son loves Anpanman). I made this with one of the Anpanman rice molds, and this with an egg mold. You can also use ice cream sandwich molds (i.e. from Amazon or Williams Sonoma) for shaping eggs or rice balls; there's a how-to here. For my blog.

extra-minty> I get them either from eBay or the Japanese dollar stores near me (Daiso, Ichiban Kan). (Bay Area bento shopping guide here)

Thanks Biggie, I'll have a look on ebay. Thanks for sharing your bento enthusiasm. It is now a matter of time till I treat myself to a wee bento box, for my lunches at work :O)

extra-minty> I just revised the photo description -- you can also use ice cream sandwich molds (i.e. from Amazon or Williams Sonoma) for shaping eggs AND rice balls (multi-tasker); I wrote a how-to here.

Hey Biggie, no I don't want to shape any eggs ever ever ever, being vegan I'll stick with the rice :O) i really admire your attention to detail, such care with presentation of food makes it beautiful, special and fun :O)

extra-minty> Ha ha, okay! You might want to check out One More Bento Fan's photostream -- she's put a lot of interesting things in onigiri molds, such as steel-cut oatmeal, couscous, etc. Might be up your alley!

natesgirl> Unfortunately I had to order this from eBay (Tokyo Gift) in my one eBay purchase last year. Seller was fine, don't get me wrong, I just don't like to pay shipping if I can avoid it.
