Join our program on October 21st (Friday) 19:45-22:30 at Tokyo :)
Making a basic healthy Japanese bento box for your next lunch is already a creative process but a kyaraben will definitely add a little more fun.
In a kyaraben, the food in your bento can look like cute cartoon characters, animals, or even beautiful plants. Making a kyaraben used to be just a trick to get children excited about eating their bento but it has now turned into an art form where even competitions are held. It’s popularity has actually spread across the globe but there is always room to recruit more kyaraben enthusiasts.
In this program you will learn how to make either a Hello Kitty or Pokemon kyaraben. Please make sure to indicate which kyaraben you would like to make at the time of your booking. You will also learn how to make healthy tofu balls, flowers out of cherry tomatoes, and sunflowers out of small sausages.
