Clockwise from top left: baby carrots, purple grapes, mini quesadillas topped with Stars Wars cheese, sunflower kernels and the little treat section holds chocolate and candy coated sunflower kernels.
Nope, no m&m's! That tube is being repurposed to dispense sunflower kernels. :) It's the perfect size and makes them really easy to carry and eat!
The light sabers are a huge hit with my three big kids. They are actually for cupcakes, but make really great bento picks, easy to spear things on them. I left them laying on top of the grapes here so you could see them better. :)
The Star Wars cheese (a Storm Trooper and X-wing fighter ship ((according to my obsessed son)) is made with a set of cookie press cookie cutters from Williams Sonoma. I've had the face ones for a long time and then this past May Ethan picked out the new space ship set for my Mother's Day gift. Isn't he precious?
I decorated the accents with food safe markers using the same technique I used with the Hello Kitty cutters I posted Monday (shown here). It didn't turn out as well as I had hoped, but the boy was happy and that was good enough for me. :)

OK so, I'd have to take the label off of the M&M's container lest my child be SORELY DISAPPOINTED when she opened it. LOL Cute idea though!
So freaking awesome! Where did you get the light saber "swords"? My Charlie would go crazy for those, especially since he's going to be Luke for Halloween :) Nice job as always Melissa!
"Unknown" - that label is long gone already, I only left it on for the purpose of taking pics of it so everyone could identify it easily. :)
EP - thanks! I got the light sabers from Amazon. I've never seen them anywhere else. :)
