I was excited to test these out when they arrived. All the images I've seen posted online look really cute but I wondered how easy that would be to replicate at home.
To start, I use Pepperidge Farm whole grain bread. It's wider than normal bread (like Wonderbread) but also not as tall. Because it is so wide, I am able to turn the stamper sideways and fit two stamps along the bottom half of the bread. I then used a pizza cutter to evenly cut the bread horizontally so that I could put the filling on the top half. That means I'm able to get two full pockets from one piece of bread. Their how-to video has the stamp going right in the middle of the bread which would be very wasteful.
When they say don't overstuff these... they mean it. I was conservative with the PB&J on my first pocket so I tried a little more jelly on the second one, which resulted in the pocket bursting when I sealed the edges. But it was kind of cool because it looked like an alien bursting out of the animal's stomach so it wasn't a total loss.
The set doesn't come with instructions but it does include a link to their website and how-to video. It wasn't loading for me but a quick Youtube search brought me to a video that showed me how to make the sandwiches. I found it to be very simple and they looked just as good as the photos I've seen online. I could see myself making a ton of these in advance and freezing them which would make packing my son's lunch much easier. I also washed these by hand to ensure they don't get ruined in the dishwasher (plus one of the pieces is so tiny).
Overall, this is a nice set for those who like to add cute little touches to their kids' lunch.

This was one of the best purchases I have made, my husband says I have a lot of "Food Toys" and I'm super glad I added this one! These mini sandwiches are SUPER CUTE! They hold a little more than a teaspoon of filling. It takes a little bit of time of make 'em, but it's worth it. I even toasted mine. I made my first ones filled with honey and some with cheese. After you make the sandwiches, you'll have a lot of crust and extra bread, I made fresh croutons out of the left overs! Here's how: Cut the left over bread into cubes about an inch long/wide. Get yourself a pan for the oven. Pre heat to 375 degrees F OR use the broiler like i do.... Put your cubes on the pan, sprinkle generously with olive oil, sprinkle on your favorite herbs, i used garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to evenly coat the bread cubes with oil and the herbs. Put under boiler for 1 minute or less. Take out pan, stir around your soon to be croutons, put back in for another minute, take out... Repeat until your croutons reach desired crispiness. Let them cool and store them in a zip lock bag!making hard boiled eggs into shapes was a little difficult for me but I was still able to get a face print and slight ears for my egg-imals. I used large eggs and they didn't turn out the way i liked, they didn't fit right in the shaper... But they tasted good, and still turned out cute!
