Description
This set of three bumblebee snack boxes brings a cheerful garden pattern to packed lunches. Each box is square with softly rounded corners, with a teal base and a cream lid whose top is printed with black and yellow bumblebees, pale wings spread, flying over a teal ground scattered with little white dotted circles. The three boxes come in graduated sizes, small, medium and large, so there is a box to suit whatever you are packing. The set is 11.5cm square and 5.5cm tall, and weighs just 0.15KG altogether, so it adds very little to a bag.
Snack boxes like these are ideal for the small things that travel better in their own container: crackers, sliced fruit, nuts, raisins or a couple of biscuits. Tuck one inside a lunch bag, take the whole set on a picnic or a day out, or keep them in the kitchen for portioning snacks ahead of a busy week. Having three sizes means you can match the box to the food, so a handful of berries is not lost in a box meant for something larger. The square shape sits neatly beside other containers in a bag or cupboard, and the bright bee print makes your boxes easy to spot.
The bases are made from polypropylene plastic and the lids from polyethylene plastic, a light, practical pairing for boxes carried about every day. When they are not in use, the smaller boxes nest inside the larger, so the set takes up the space of a single box in a drawer or cupboard. The bases can go in the dishwasher on the top rack only, while the lids are hand wash only, and the boxes are not suitable for the microwave. Wrap the nested set with a ribbon and it makes a cheerful small present that will earn its place in the kitchen every day.
