Muffin tin meal in a bento?

I love this bento box of mine with 4 little dividers. I usually use it without the compartments but with muffin tin meals being the rage now in the blogosphere, I thought I could incorporate it into my bento. I did a colour co-ordinated set today with yellow being the colour of choice. I think the bento is enlivened with the colourful paper cups, rather than just using the compartments alone, don't you think? I boiled some young corn and cut them into smaller bite-size pieces and put Mama Duck in charge of them. I made cutout strawberry cream cheese sandwiches and got princess to eat two of them up as they couldn't fit into the compartment. :P There are strawberries watched over by Papa Duck, and a little pastry that grandma bought her. I'm not really sure what it is, but there seems to be a little cheese in the middle.

This is what my muffin tin bento meal looks like closed over. I think it's lovely. :)

Where are the ducklings?
Agree with you, the paper liners sure liven up the box.
