Luv It!

I was so thrilled when I was contacted by FunBites to do a review.  My first impression upon receiving the FunBites Luv It! food tool was Wow, that's nice -- heavy-duty and well-made, and a very fun, vivid color!  Obviously, T shared my opinion.  I had put the cutter at the Very Back of the counter...and when I returned to the kitchen less than 15 minutes later, T already had "discovered" it and checked it out; I found it at the Front of a Different counter!  ;o)

I tried a new recipe for Savory Crackers...and used my new food toy tool.

The FunBites Luv It! was so easy and FUN to use!  After unrolling a pie crust, I cut it into many geometric shapes.

I placed the FunBites cutter on the pie crust.


Using the handles, I rocked it back and forth a few times.  In a matter of seconds, I had lots of geometric shapes!


Using the FunBites insert, I popped the shapes out of the cutter and onto my baking sheet.  (That insert is a genius idea!!)


I used the geometric shapes to make fun pictures:

a sun for me...


and a king wearing his crown for T.


My husband informed me that the king's mustache is upside down...and that that's why he doesn't look more like a king.  Oh.  Okay.  I get it.

Before T and I enjoyed eating our snack, I had to get in a little "shapes" practice!  ;o)

T used his FunBites geometric shapes to help Elmo hunt for shapes.



After we finished playing with our food, I cleaned up in a snap.  The FunBites set can be hand washed -- the FunBites preferred method -- or put in the dishwasher -- my preferred method.  <g>  (I do love that it is dishwasher safe.)

Not only is FunBites really easy and fun to use, it also is BPA free.  I like that.


FunBites has another cutter, FunBites Cube It!, that cuts food into little squares.

Wouldn't this lunch have been quicker and easier to prepare using the FunBites Cube It!??
