We use only the highest quality silicone available for our products. We also have our products tested and certified for food safety by a specialized laboratory.
What is possible with silicone is that it sometimes picks up odors from the food that linger. However, this does not affect its use: you can continue to use the Yummy Tray to keep liquids or food safe and fresh.
To avoid odors as much as possible, we recommend washing our products immediately after use with water and soap, or in the dishwasher. Since most dishwashers use a vinegar-based rinse aid, this usually helps to prevent odors.
The smell of stored breast milk can sometimes be very strong, and not always pleasant. If you notice an odor, you can use one of the following methods:
- Make a mixture of vinegar mixed with baking soda, ratio 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to 2 tablespoons of baking soda. Apply this mixture to the Yummy Tray and let it sit overnight. Then rinse it out as usual.
- Heat the oven to 200 degrees and place the tray on a plate in the oven (without lid). Set a timer for 30 minutes and check every 10 minutes to make sure the smell is gone. Repeat until the smell is gone.
- Wash the tray (without lid) one or more times in the dishwasher on a higher temperature program (60° Celsius), using a vinegar-based rinse aid.
- Place the tray (without lid) in boiling water with white vinegar in the ratio of 1 cup of vinegar for every two cups of water. Let it soak for 45 minutes and then gently scrub it.
