Bento #27 - Spring flowers bento

I am very pleased with today's bento ^_^ I was actually looking for a nice bunny pattern but came across these spring flowers instead, so I decided to use those :)

The bento contains a creamy risotto with mushrooms, peas and zucchini. On top of that I arranged the flowers which are made from beans, cheese and a baby corn center. A close up below :)

I cut the flower shapes out of paper and lay that on top of the cheese, cutting it out with a toothpick. Since I am a really slow worker this bento took me about 45 minutes to make.

In the other tier we have the rest of the baby corn & cucumber hidden underneath sakura apples and some Polish dumplings that hold potato and cottage cheese.
