Bentomio Bringing Creativity and Nutrition to Your Family’s Mealtime

Hello, Bento Mio family! I’m Karla, and I’m thrilled to share the story behind Bento Mio, one of the top lines from our family-owned Bayson Company. Inspired by my husband, a talented chef, and motivated by my son’s school journey, Bento Mio was born out of love for food, creativity, and balanced nutrition.

How Bento Mio Began

The idea for Bento Mio came to life when my little one started school. Like many parents, I wanted to make sure he enjoyed healthy meals, even when I wasn’t there. But I didn’t want to pack just any lunch; I wanted it to be something he’d be excited to open. I started creating adorable, balanced bento boxes that combined nutrition with fun, making every meal a mini celebration.

My husband, with his culinary expertise, played a huge role in this journey. Together, we came up with ideas that made the lunchbox both delightful and nutritious, making Bento Mio a brand that’s as focused on taste as it is on health.

Certified in Child Nutrition

To deepen my understanding of child-friendly, nutritious meals, I completed a Child Nutrition and Cooking course authorized by Stanford University. This course empowered me to create meals that are not only fun but also nutritionally balanced. I believe that when children see their food presented creatively, they’re more likely to enjoy it and with Bentomio every bite is crafted with care for their well-being.

Inspired by Japanese Bento Culture

Japanese bento culture has been a huge inspiration for Bento Mio. The Japanese are masters of transforming simple, healthy ingredients into visually appealing and delicious meals. I wanted to bring this same philosophy to Bento Mio, creating bento boxes that capture the Japanese spirit of balance, beauty, and fun. Every box is a mix of vibrant colors, varied textures, and thoughtful presentation, designed to keep mealtime exciting for both kids and adults.
