Silicon lid set by Classic Shopping
Making your containers airtight is key to storing food in the fridge. Without it, flavours fade, textures change, and strong odours can spread to other items. That is where these food-grade silicone stretch lids come in — a smart way to upgrade your existing bowls and containers.
Made from BPA-free, platinum-cured silicone, they are non-toxic, odourless and safe for both kids and adults. Flexible yet durable, they create a tight, leakproof seal to keep leftovers fresh longer, no need to transfer to new containers.
These lids stretch to fit most shapes and sizes, from jars and bowls to cut fruits like watermelon or lemons. They are safe for the microwave, oven, freezer, and dishwasher, and they will not warp or release harmful chemicals.

Silicone ice cube trays from Othoba
If you are still using the plastic ice trays that came with your refrigerator, it might be time to upgrade to a pair of silicone ice cube trays. Silicone trays are much more flexible than plastic, making it easier to pop out ice cubes without bending or breaking the tray. Say goodbye to the frustration of frozen cubes stuck in plastic trays!
The silicone ice cube trays from Othoba come with a sealed lid design, allowing you to cover the tray tightly. This ensures perfect lid tightness to prevent overflow and keeps your ice cubes free from odours in the fridge. Each set includes two premium silicone trays, each with 37 cubes, for a total of 74 ice cubes.
Silicone also handles both freezing temperatures and higher heat (up to a certain point), meaning these trays can be used for more than just ice. You can use them to freeze small portions of soup, baby food, or even herbs in oil.
