NUK Homemade Baby Food Flexible Freezer Tray and Lid Set

I have been using these freezer trays for about a couple of weeks so far and they've been working out great! We make all of our 6 month old's baby food at home and I purchased two of these trays to freeze what we make in bulk. I did read in other reviews that folks had a tough time getting frozen food out, but I did not have any issue. The silicone is very flexible and allows you to pop out the food by turning each cube pocket inside out. My hands do get a bit cold doing this, but it's pretty quick to get out! I love that this comes with a lid so you don't have to worry about anything getting into your baby's food. Each pocket holds about 2oz of food each. After the food gets frozen, I try to promptly take them out and put them into freezer disposable bags and label them with the food type and date to keep in the freezer. When I want to defrost or thaw them out, I simply take a cube out from a bag and put into my wean green cube and stick it in the fridge or microwave to defrost. I have yet to put these in the dishwasher but I did find that these trays are really easy to clean by hand if you use a bottle brush. I clean each of the pockets with a bottle brush and gets it clean easy and quick! I've also read that these make really good ice cubes for adult drinks which is probably what we'd probably use them for after our baby is done with pureed food. =D

I've used other 1oz silicone trays. One type was the ones that's plastic, where you push on one side of the half moon cube and the food comes out. That one comes with a cover and that's why I tried it. However, I find that pushing the frozen food on one side and have it slide out on the other side is hard, and when the food pushed out on the other side, it hurts my fingers and cut them sometimes. The food "cube" is not cube, it's a half moon shape, so it's very hard to keep organize in a zip lock bag, most of the time is just a giant bag of stuff that took up space in the freezer, or you'll keep the food in the tray itself and take one out at a time. No no no!! (Only plus is that it's hard plastic so the ice cube food will not be deformed and it has a lid) I've also used the 1oz silicone ones with no cover. So to freeze the food in those, you'll have to put the tray into ziplock bags, and the top of the food will smoother onto the inside of the bag and if you put anything on top of it, it'll deform and squish the ice cube. The bottom of that tray is all connected, so when it's time to push out the ice cube, it's a little hard, especially the first one. I do like that one because it's 1oz, i could blend a few types of food into these 1oz, mixed them w/ other batches of 1oz, and my baby will have a mix of many type of food in his meal, usually just 4oz. The reason I really really love this NUK one is it's the best of the 2 types of trays I've tried. 1. Silicone - I could put some hot food that's blended right into the tray, don't need to wait for that 10 mins like if I'm using the plastic ones. 2. The bottom of this tray is not connected. This actually makes the ice cube very easy to push out, even it's a taller cube. 3. It has a lid!!! (need I say more??) 4. It has a small footprint, but since each slot is 2oz, it holds up to 18 oz. I do wish that it will come in 1oz size though, since that gives me option to have more combination of food in each meal. Another thing about this tray is, if you are trying to freeze something that's very watery, it might take some skill. Since the silicone is very soft thin type, something very thin and liquidy might not stay too well, then on top of that, you'll need to push the lid onto the tray, then transport it to the freezer. But with some skill, I could do it with no problem. All in all, I love this tray, it is my go to ones.

I love this product! I bought two so I would be able to make larger quantities at a time. It is sooo easy to make baby food, pour it in these little molds, pop the frozen food into a freezer bag and label it, then make something else. Its a wonderful product! As with many silicone products it is a little wobbly when you go to stick it into the freezer but you can keep it on a hard flat surface (maybe a plate or small cookie sheet) and transfer it to the freezer on that until it sets up and you take it out of the molds to store it. I love the size of the cubes, they are about the same quantity of the commercial baby food that you buy if you fully fill them. But you can choose to fill them only partially if baby is just starting solids so that it is closer to the serving size they can handle at that stage. We live in an area where neighbors give us a lot of produce during the fall. I have been able to purée pears, apples, and squash just from what neighbors have freely given us. It saves us a lot of money and I like that I know what I'm feeding my baby!! It is so easy to make your own baby food it just takes a little time but saves a lot of money!

These containers are easy to use, clean, and store. The only thing I really didn't like is the lid doesn't stay on well. However, its a small defect that doesn't take away from its usability. Just have to remember when moving the tray around or it will fall off. Bought three and found they are easily stackable when storing away. In the freezer or fridge I would set the bottom one on a small plate for a sturdy base. The cubes are very flexible and the food pops out easily. We've come a long way from making food in ice cube trays back when I had my first baby! This is a must have for homemade food prep.

Gostei muito para deixar as comidinhas da minha filha no congelador

use it all the time, very easy to take the frozen cubes out (simply let it stand in room temperature for 5 min, then flip the container up side down, then push the bottom down a bit).

for babyfood freezing. Great price and quality. No complaints. Shipped on time.

Super útil para almacenar la comida de bebé y no tener que cocinar diario. Buenos materiales, algunos comentarios dicen que no cierra bien la tapa, pero en la caja dice que así debe ser, no cierra herméticamente pero si tapa bien la comida para meterla al congelador. Es muy fácil sacar la comida una vez congelada. Lo usé hasta con betabel y no sé pinto el plástico. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Muy buen precio y funcionalidad excelente. Tapa bien la comida del bebé y la protege del hielo en el congelador, y siendo de silicón es muy fácil sacar los cuadritos que requieres aunque estén congelados. Muy recomendable. Fácil de lavar.
