Trudeau Fuel Sandwich Box Review

I come across about Trudeau Fuel range products through one of the bento blogger. I started to find where can I get the Fuel range products in Malaysia. Unfortunately, I unable to find in my small hometown here. Sad. :(

But to my surprise, a nice lady in Trudeau Corp kindly sponsored me few items from Fuel range. I am so delighted. One of it is sandwich box. So, I am going to do a review of Fuel sandwich box or they called it, Everest sandwich box for this post. :)


I have been wanting to own a sandwich box like this, and finally my dream comes true. :) The sandwich box comes with 3 different colors and they send me red color. I like the red color as I will be using mostly to pack for my little girl or either myself. :)


The box is made of PP and eco-friendly material. It is also made of BPA free material, one of the matters that concern most of the mommies. 


One thing that I like about this sandwich box is the attached lid. You will never worry that the lid is misplaced or missing anymore. What's more? All Fuel range products are comes with 5 years warranty! How cool is that, isn't it?


My girl launched the sandwich box. I packed seedless grapes, korean strawberries, oranges bits and chocolate alphabet biscuits for her. She was all smiling when i showed her the new box. Although she was happy with her new box, but she was unable to finish them. Probably a bit too much for a 2.5 year old girl.


So, I used the sandwich box for myself next day! Yay! I packed cream roll (cut into half), two mini croissants and some fruits. Nicely fit into the box. Awww....i falling in love with this wide base sandwich box.     


Another one using Trudeau sandwich box. :) Tamago mini croissants and fruits for myself. I cooked and stuffed the tamago into the ready bought mini croissant. I added nori as the eyes. Does it looks like elephant? :p


Packed tamago mini croissants for hubby too. The sleepy elephant mini croissants. :p 


Another simple chocolate banana sandwich for myself again. I saw an rilakkuma chocolate banana toast from pinterest other day, so I think of making one too, as it looks simple. But mine looks terribly awful as I do not have the bear shape cutter that able to fit and cut perfectly on the banana size. :( I have relatively a bit larger bear cutter and smaller one. It is definitely not looks like rilakkuma. =.='''


My girl one looks much more better. I used the small bear shape cutter to cut the banana. Nori as face details. I was trying to pack a smaller piece banana chocolate for her as I saw she finished one whole piece of chocolate sandwich yesterday night. However, she did not took them in school. She told me she does not want to dirty her hand. =.='''

Coming up next, Trudeau Snack Pod review. :)

Bento No# 118: Pizza Bento

Out of sudden, I think of making own pizza after seeing few homemade pizza from Instagram. So, I bought sandwich wrap, mozarella cheese, honey tomatoes and ham. My initial idea was making bear pizza. But I failed. :(


The sandwich wrap was cut using the cutezcute cutter. I spread the bolognese sauce on the sandwich wrap before arranging the ham, tomatoes on the top. I actually arranged in bear face. Used the ham as eyes, nose, mouth, etc, before I sprinkled the mozarella cheese on top. But I don't see any bear face when i took out from the oven. *sob sob* The above homemade pizza was for myself. :)


And this for hubby. I saw an idea to include the hard boiled egg on the homemade pizza from Instagram. Such a brilliant idea and yummy! Do you see the hard boiled egg for the top pizza in this blue diablock box? :)


My little girl gets one slice of bear pizza too. :)  I packed two boxes for her. One for her morning break, one for afternoon break. :)

My first Trudeau Fuel review is coming up next! Stay tune! :)

Bento No# 117: Three Days Bentos

I received a parcel from a very generous and friendly lady from Trudeau Corp on last Saturday.


I received total 5 different items, 2-piece foldable cutlery set, trapeze insulated lunch bag, sandwich box, duo  stainless steel thermal food container and a snack pod, all from Fuel range and all in red color, my favourite color. :) It was my love at first sight when I see them. Beautiful! :) I'm going to review them one by one and at the end of my review, i will hold a giveaway. Sounds cool? So, continue to check out my blog. :)

So, I have made few bentos but I do not have time to sit down to blog (again, the same excuse, LOL). So, I'm going to post 3 days bentos that I made for my little girl at one go. :p


I bought the alphabet chocolate biscuits from Jusco and i think it is perfect for me to include them in my girl's bento since she does not wants sandwich now. So, in the box are all her favourite, blueberries, alphabet chocolate biscuits and strawberries. 


Next day, I packed the same fruits for her again. Strawberries and blueberries. She seems does not get bored with these two berries! 


FIL plucked homegrown papaya from his small farm nearby. So, I included papaya for her. I also included a packed of dried raisins into her school bag. :)

I am running out of ideas on how to decorate her bento as she does not wants bread and cheese. I can do much more cutesy bento with bread and cheese. I need to explore more foods for her.

Bento No# 116: Minnie Bento

So, I've back from holiday with sister and relatives. It was all-ladies trip as we were going to Bangkok. A shopping paradise to all ladies!

MIL told me that she packed chocolate biscuits and grapes for my girl when I was away. I was touched to hear that. My MIL needs sleep as she is still under medication, but she woke up earlier when I was away to pack some fruits and snack for my girl. :)

So, I have to back to my routine after holiday. Deep in my heart, I know that my girl does not like bread. I know that. But yet, Im not giving up to put in a minnie nutella sandwich for her again. I also includes her favourite fruits, strawberries and blueberries. I used my new picks, Okazu picks. So cute. Hehe.


A very easy peasy snack bento for little girl to bring to school. Takes 15 minutes to prepare. :)

Bento No# 115: Ladybird and Smiley Face Bento

Hello! I am so sorry that I did not update my blog for nearly a month. I was away for holiday after posted Wizard of Oz bento. I was actually had a bento made before to Wizard of Oz bento, but I was a bit stressed out on the Wizard of Oz bento because it was my first time participating on the bento hop. So...this post is delayed. I still have few delayed posts. How i wish i have 36 hours a day. Sigh....

So, back to the bento. I managed to get mini wheat buns from local bakery shop here. So, I made ladybird bento for my girl. I doubt she would finished them and I was correct. She only took the sausage, not the cheese and bun. She finished the strawberries too. 


Ladybird bento for my girl. I only realised that the ladybird's wing were placed upside down after i viewed the photos from my handphone gallery. 


Ladybird bun was made of mini sausage, cheese and scrambled egg under the mini sausage. The smiley face bun was stuffed with salmon mayo. Added strawberries in between. The same goes to hubby, so I did not take photo as I was running out of time. :p
