Kidco Healthy Snack Frozen Treat Trays Review

Kidco Healthy Snack Frozen Treat Trays
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I was looking for pop molds I found these "Frozen Treat Trays." There are some advantages and some disadvantages to this type of mold. First, you can freeze basically anything in them and I've had good luck freezing homemade juices including lemonade and juices I make in my juicer. The caps on this brand have permanent plastic sticks in them so you don't have to buy wooden sticks all the time. They also sort of catch some of the drips although don't count on it.
The disadvantage is that you can't just pull one ice pop out of a tray you have to put the entire tray in a bowl of warm water to release the pops. I found them nearly impossible to pull out without doing this and setting them in warm water for thirty seconds usually does the trick. Then you can just put all the ice pops in a plastic ziplock freezer bag for storage.
Here are the two "juicing" recipes I've used lately. There is a enough juice for the ice pops and a few cups of juice leftover to enjoy:
Recipe 1:
1 pound strawberries
1 pineapple, peeled
2 Pink Lady apples, unpeeled
2 oranges, peeled
Recipe 2:
1 pineapple, peeled
2 oranges, peeled
2 apples, unpeeled
1 (6-ounce) container blackberries
1 cup grapes
For both recipes cut the fruit to fit your juicer and juice. Pour the juice into your frozen treat trays. There are really unlimited ways you can make juice so you can have fun experimenting all summer long.
You would think this would come with a nice recipe book but only three recipes are included. You can mix yogurt with fruit in your blender or freeze applesauce, chocolate milk, egg nog or puddings.
While these are fun for kids adults will love them too. I went out walking in the heat and it was so good to have some ice pops ready on my return.

I am so disappointed as one by one they develop a crack near the mold mark on the bottom and subsequently leak. This happens with all sizes. They have only been used for cold drinks, never warm either so it is not a question of mis-use, just poor manufacturing.

Matches the plates I have.
Nice size. I wish I bought more.
The stripes ate all there, didn't start fading... I think it helps if you avoid setting one cup inside of the other.
Later I'll buy all the other sizes.

I think the 19 ounce size is a bit large for my everyday use. I also bought the 14 ounce and like that size better. These are so tall and while they stack it is hard to stack for easy storage as they are so tall I can't fit more than 2 high. Otherwise love the design and whimsy but think a 12-16 oz glass is a better fit for my daily use.

I must have ordered these "glasses" in mistake. They look okay, at least while they are new, but the size is for a small child. They are very tiny.
Besides, when you wash them, either in the dishwasher or in the dish rack, water accumulates at the top, because it has borders that hold the water. Not practical. This problem must probably apply to all sizes.

Although a little pricey, these are really cute, well-made cups that seem to be holding up well even with being run through the dishwasher. And they are a perfect size for a 3 yr. old.

With its mod mix-and-match designs, ultra-bright color palette, and clean geometric shapes, the French Bull look is instantly recognizable--and sure to elicit smiles on even the cloudiest of days. Created by American designer Jackie Shapiro, this fun collection of 100-percent melamine products unites lightweight, durable construction with savvy design sophistication to cheerfully complement daily dining. Stock the family kitchen, brighten casual entertaining, or turn picnics into chic affairs with a customized assembly of dinnerware, serveware, and accessories.
The Superhero Kids character series will have little ones dreaming up their own superpowers as they down those superfoods you serve (go ahead and sell green beans that way!). Four wacky characters look part animal, part alien, and all action as they pop out from their own comic-book word backgrounds: Bam, Zap, Hug, and Pow. Let each child pick a favorite character or mix them up for a different surprise sidekick at every meal. Available on a 6-ounce juice cup, 8-inchplate, and 5-3/4-inch bowl (all sold in sets of four), the Superheroes are always ready to save the day. A great kid-friendly material, melamine has a high heat resistance, does not readily absorb foods and liquids, and won\'t shatter when dropped. The glazed finish also resists scratches and keeps the hallmark color fresh and vibrant. French Bull is dishwasher-safe on the top rack; however, it should not be placed in the microwave.

Not dishwasher safe as advertised. Even without using the heat setting these cups flaked, discolored and became brittle immediately. And our hot water heater is set low! Cups and bowls were/are fine.
Overpriced for what you get vs. durability.

My son who is almost 2 years loves these. We also have them in the princess design and also a winner there for my 4 year old daughter. These plates are well made and durable for the toddler set. We have only had them a month but they are holding up perfectly to the abuse he gives them and dishwasher washing. If they were microwave safe they would have gotten 5 stars.
