Key Features
-
4 Unique Animal Shapes — Each cutter features a distinct animal silhouette that appeals to different interests:
Seal: A sleek, playful shape perfect for "sea-themed" lunches.
Whale: A large, friendly curve that works well with thicker fillings.
Squirrel: A detailed profile featuring a bushy tail.
Bear: A classic, heartwarming favorite that everyone loves.
Crust-Removing Design — These cutters are sized to fit a standard slice of sandwich bread, effectively trimming away the crusts while sealing the edges of the bread together to keep fillings contained.
Internal Detailing — Each cutter includes "stamp" lines that press a cute facial expression or body detail into the surface of the bread, so the animal is recognizable even without extra decoration.
Safe for Kids — Made from high-quality, BPA-free food-grade plastic with rounded edges. They are safe and easy enough for children to use under supervision, turning lunch prep into a fun activity.
-
Versatile Use — While designed for sandwiches, these sturdy cutters can also be used for:
Thick slices of fruit (like watermelon or cantaloupe).
Slices of cheese or ham.
Cookie dough or pancakes.

How to Use for Best Results
Soft Bread is Key: Use fresh, soft, or slightly warmed bread. If the bread is too dry or cold, it may tear rather than cut cleanly.
Fill Center-Only: Place a small amount of jam, honey, or thin ham in the very center of the slice. Avoid the edges where the cutter will press down.
Press Firmly: Place the cutter on top of the sandwich and press down firmly on a flat surface. Wiggle the cutter slightly to ensure a clean break through both slices of bread.
Stamp: Gently press the "face" detail part of the cutter to leave the animal’s expression on the top slice.
Serve: Pair your animal sandwiches with Torune Koala Food Picks or place them inside a b.box Mini Lunchbox for a perfectly themed meal.
Usage & Care Tips
Cleaning: Hand-wash only with mild dish soap and a soft sponge. Do not put them in the dishwasher, as the high heat can warp the plastic and ruin the precise cutting edges.

Safety Restrictions:
Do not use in the microwave, oven, or toaster oven.
Do not use with extremely hard or frozen foods.
Storage: Store the cutters in a dry place. Their flat profile makes them easy to stack in a kitchen drawer or keep in a small container.

Busy Mornings: A quick way to make a lunch look "special" in under 60 seconds.
Waste-Free Lunch: While the crusts are removed, they can be saved to make croutons or breadcrumbs!
