Where to find bento equipment?

In: General

14 Dec 2008

When I first started making bento lunches, I used to read other bento blogs for inspiration, and I would always be terribly impressed by the cute food picks or sauce bottles or the silicone cups I’d see used as food separators. I did find people selling them online but I found the prices too high.

However, I am happy to report that bento fans now have a great place to go to for bento equipment – Daiso! Yes, you can get lots of Bento equipment at Daiso, now open at The Curve, Mutiara Damansara. Here are a couple of picture of what is available at Daiso:-

I visited on their opening day and immediately picked up a pack of cute animal food picks, 2 silicone food cups, a pack of 20 sauce bottles and a pair of shakers for food flavouring or chilli flakes. All for a mere RM20 since everything in the store is just RM5 each! I’ll picture them soon.

I saw bento boxes, onigiri shapers, rice ball shapers and any number of containers. So, if you are new to making bento lunches, pick up your equipment at Daiso – its inexpensive and you get the cute stuff to brighten up your lunch boxes! I can see my lunch boxes looking cheerier by the day already! :)

About this blog

This is my journey into making bento lunch boxes. I don't do cute but I do try to make them as attractive as I can - both to look at and to eat. Perhaps we might learn from each other. Feel free to drop me a line or to showcase your bento. I am at bentodelights [at] gmail [dot] com. You can read more about this site.
