Bento #139 Cupcake Bear Bento

I've made some steamed cupcakes on Wednesday, using the recipe posted by 5AM Bento. It's really a simple recipe and the taste is not bad too ... I've doubled the recipe to yield for 10 cupcakes... I reducedthe pancake mix and add in 10-15g of cocoa powder. I just omit the cake flour since I'd make a mistake, adding the cocoa powder to the pancake mix when sieving the flours and there is no chance for me to get 2 colours from the batter...the remaining ingredients still the same as in her post .... thanks to 5AM Bento for her sharing.

After the cakes were ready, I just decorated them into cutie bears.... cocktail for ears, cheese for mouth part and the rest are nori.

Pls refer to 5AM Bento , for the original recipe :D
