Pop Chef
Sample item received for review. All opinions are my own.
I’ve been trying to come up with creative ways to make school lunches and snacks more interesting. I noticed the Pop Chef and thought that it would be a great product to make foods more fun.
I got a chance to review the Pop Chef and from the moment it came out of the box, my youngest has been obsessed with it. She wants me to make shapes out of everything! There have been a few times that it just wasn’t possible (“No, honey, you can’t have butterfly shaped spaghetti. Nice try, silly!”) The very first thing we tried was apples. Mikenah was very pleased with the results.
Later, I tried cheese and that turned out nice, but the cheese wanted to stick. I wasn’t sure how well the dislodging tool would work, but it did just fine. I’m sure thicker pieces of cheese would have worked better. These are thin, pre-cut sandwich slices.
There are 6 shapes to use:
- Circle
- Heart
- Flower
- Butterfly
- Sun
- Star
The flower is the biggest shape and all the others can be layered nicely over or in it. For instance, as the box shows, you could cut a flower out of watermelon, then cut a circle shape out of the center of the flower and fill it with a honey-dew melon circle. It fits perfectly and looks great!
Some great uses for the Pop Chef could be mini sandwiches, ham and cheese bites, fondant decorations for cupcakes, fruit kabobs and even cookie dough shapes. The possibilities are endless!
The Pop Chef comes with 3-piece Pop Chef tool, dislodging tool, skewers, 6 shapes, and an instruction & recipe guide.
