Finally, a homemade-tasting gluten-free bread without the hassle! I love that the ciabattas come in a resealable freezer bag, so I can bake up as many rolls as I need, and easily save the rest for another batch. Best of all, they take less than 10 minutes in the oven, and bake up chewy and crisp on the outside and soft on the inside!

Product Review: FunBites https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-funbites/ https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-funbites/#respond Tue, 01 Apr 2014 09:30:19 +0000 http://www.thecreativekitchen.com/?p=6900

 Looking to have fun while making and eating food? Have picky children who don’t eat enough, or even at all? FunBites is a great new kitchen tool to use for both. Cut up your kid’s foods into bite-sized shapes and give them both a fun and interactive eating experience. We love FunBites not only because it makes food more playful, but also because it helps develop motor skills, improve spatial awareness, and build logical thinking.

From the Mouth of a Kid:

Different shaped foods are fun! I like cutting my sandwiches into hearts and triangles.

From the Eyes of a Parent: images

I love FunBites because they’re not only made from safe plastic and dishwasher safe, but because it helps me to get my fussy eater to eat things in smaller bites and fun shapes. It’s simple to use, and makes my kids looking forward to mealtimes! Plus, I have to admit that I have fun playing with them, too!

Flavorful Features:

FunBites comes in 3 shapes: hearts, triangles and squares. Each set comes with a curved cutter and matching popper to pop out the bite-sized pieces.

The Icing on the Cake:

FunBites are BPA-free, USA made, and dishwasher safe. In addition, the cutting part is bladeless, making it safe for both children and parents to use.

Time to Use?!funbites-oval-logo

Anytime! Cut up pancakes in the morning, pack different shaped sandwiches for lunch, shape fruit or cheese for an afternoon snack, or even slice up pizza or burgers at dinnertime.

Good to Go?

Yes! Stash one in your purse to add some fun to any lunch on-the-go.

Mix it Up!

Use FunBites to make different shaped croutons for salads! Place the bread cut-outs on a sheet pan with a small amount of oil or butter, and toast them in an oven set to 350°F for 5-8 minutes, or until golden brown.
