Baby Food Storage Tray - Silicone Pop Out Portion Freezer Tray (2 Pack) - Breast Milk and Food Storage Made Easy

I had been researching on and off for a few weeks on what to buy for freezing baby food. Some products the silicone came off in he food or the harder plastics cracked. I ultimately went with this product because it is USA made and had the best reviews. Not sure why more aren't buying the product but it's great. Pros - 1 ounce portion makes mixing foods much easier. - I like the oval shape rather than rectangle or square (just personal preference). - no freezer burn!! - food pops out easily. - 36 1 ounce portions so it's awesome for making big batches and stocking up. Cons (not really cons just things to be cautious of) - some people said the silicone tore and that's definitely a possibility. Just be mindful when taking it out. - food pops out easy but I can't just open a 1 gallon bag and they all fall out. So don't expect that. I just bought it so I'm sure with time I'll figure out a quick technique for removing food. - don't over fill! I made this mistake and the top cover stuck to the food. Thank goodness it was only half a tray of food otherwise I may have had to wait for the food to thaw just enough to remove the cover. So definitely do not over fill or the cover will not come off. Prior to this I was using a regular plastic ice cube tray and cracked it :( and this is why I was dead set on silicone. Plus silicone is easy to wash and I think safer.

Love this silicone food tray! I’ve used these for frozen puréed ginger, puréed baby food (steamed squash, steamed peppers etc), herbed butters. Easy to fill, easy to wipe, easy to clean, easy to store. They come out perfectly clean and unstained from the dishwasher. No lingering smells, no residue, soft and flexible. The silicone has a lot of give so if you’re working with a completely frozen product it will still pop out without compromising the integrity of the product.

These have been a game changer in making my LO’s homemade baby food. It’s super easy to clean and the portion sizes are perfect. The only con, just like everyone else is saying, is that it’s hard to get the silicone out of the plastic sometimes. It feels like it’s going to rip, but so far mine has held up with no rips.

I use this product to make cat food using a mix that creates nutritionally complete food using boneless meat. Meat is cheaper in large amounts, so it helps to make up several pounds at once and freeze it. This tray creates convenient one-ounce pucks that can be thawed overnight in small serving sizes—no waste! You do have to let the frozen trays sit out for a few minutes to be able to pull out the pucks, it’s difficult to get them out right from the freezer. Load ‘em up in a ziplock bag and make another batch in a different flavor. Great product, makes my life easier which is a rare compliment from me.

I thought at first that it was a bit clunky and unnecessary to have the silicon in the plastic, but it makes sense to me now. I like how thin the silicon is because it makes it easy to get the frozen food or milk out without waiting. it is a little difficult to get the silicon out of the plastic mold but it is worth it because it helps the silcon keep its form when setting it somewhere in the freezer. I like these! the portions never go to waste because I used 1 cube of food to feed my daughter when she was just starting solids, then 2 when she ate solids regularly, and now I use 4 for a feeding. Sometimes she just wants a little snack so I use 1 or 2 when I know she isn't that hungry. I use these trays for fruits mostly. I even used blueberries and I expected the silicon to stain but it didn't. I was happy with that. I like how the silcon comes out of the plastic part so I don't have to wash the plastic bottom as often. SCORE FOR ME. I like this. I recommend it. and it comes with 2 trays

I bought this for portioning and freezing things like leftover chicken stock, herbs in oil, puréed ginger, things that you really just want to prep once in a while and have on hand. I had been using ice cube trays and it worked ok, but my freezer is a drawer at the bottom of the fridge, so when I would open and close it, I spilled at least a little at least half of the time. Then I tried a silicone ice cube tray and they were so easy to get the cubes out, but it sort of flopped all over everywhere... bad call for my freezer. This is the best of all scenarios! The rigid shell prevents flopping. The snap on lid kept everything inside the tray and off the bags of frozen veggies! And the silicone liner made popping them out perfectly easy! I also love that each portion is one ounce. It’s so easy to know how many cubes to use for all my recipes. Genius!

Let me start by clarifying that sometimes it's difficult to pull the mold out of the hard plastic, like many people complained. However, the benefits of the outer plastic outweigh that, which I'll get to. You can eadily rinse the back or rest it in hot water for a minute to make it so much easier. I'll also add that the silicone turns white when it stretches, indicating that it's not pure (or so I've heard). It retained the smell of tbe strong-smelling foods I used it for (after hand washing), which is annoying but didn't seem to affect the next batch of food I froze. It is thinner than the more expensive brands, and the serving sizes are smaller. I actually like those features because the thinness makes cleaning so easy. Just sink in soapy water and scrub it between your hands. The pockets easily flip inside out and scrub with a brush or sponge. Shake it to dry and it will be dry within a minute. Tje more expensive ones were slightly more difficult to clean and require a bottle brush to clean the holes. I love the smaller portions, which is why I bought this one over others. Most of the expendive ones, though they have bigger holes, store less food overall. It stacks well in my deep freezer and the plastic protects it from spilling. Other brands don't have a hard outer case and they spill more easily because things (like bags of breastmilk) press from below and push contents out.

I love these! I have a 10lbs pup and bought him a small Woof treat ball. They sell a 4 cavity silicone mold for it that is half the price of this one without a lid or the plastic shape holder. You need to under-fill these by about 1/4 inch and they’re perfect. If you don’t the treat ball won’t screw together correctly but will still work. My favorite recipe for my little guy is taking bone broth, I like Native Pet, and freezing it. He gets one after long walks so he doesn’t chug water, or at night to help him settle (mental stim toys are really great for your pup!). Other treat ideas that’ll last longer: pumpkin + kibble, bone broth and kibble - soaked, plain yogurt + berries, banana + pumpkin, kibble + banana - list is sort of endless depending on your pups preferences. FWIW - this is my first small dog in years, my last two have been large and giant breeds, one was on a strict vet food diet and the other was a tank. This particular mold is 1oz, the actual treat ball I suspect actually holds 0.75-0.80, and the large one is likely 1.25oz (not a significant difference but can be depending on the size of your dog!) while the XL is probably closer to 1.75oz. I own them all.
