If you're a pesto-loving gardener, you've probably heard the trick of freezing pesto in ice cube trays to make individual portions. Even better: these pesto cubes are stored neatly on their own stacking tray, and each one has a cover to prevent freezer burn. It's easy to use one at a time without others accidentally popping out, and you can label them with erasable markers.

The pesto cubes are the perfect portion size, compact and easy to store in the freezer. The attached lid makes so much sense. They also make a unique gift.

bought a set last year and discovered the convenience of the product so I bought 2 more sets. I can make and add pesto's, juices, sauces, hummus...anything that makes a lot, doesn't use a lot and you cant eat it up before it spoiles

Cubes could be a bit larger. But, you can always use two if more pesto needed.

This is the perfect solution to a big batch of pesto. The worst part about making pesto is cleaning the food processor. This way, you can make a large batch and benefit from being able to store the pesto and use it at a later date. It then tastes as fresh as the day you made it. The cube sections are the perfect size for a double serving.

Being able to store individual portions is great. Not just my favorite pesto, but freeze specialty drinks so the melting "ice" won't dilute the drink.

Comments about Pesto Cubes, Set of 20:
My freezer is so neat now. Gone are all the odd sized small containers that wouldn't stay stacked. Now my leftover herbs and zests are nicely stored. I always zest citrus before squeezing so I have zest when needed. I also whiz up any leftover cilantro, parsley or other soft herbs with just enough olive oil to process, then freeze to add to future meals. Leftover portions of tomato paste or chipotles in adobo can now be saved - the red will probably discolor the plastic container, but then I'll have dedicated containers for those staining foods. I think I need another set...my herb garden isn't even planted yet! I can't respond to the durability or construction quality as I haven't 'washed, re-used, washed' this product yet.

I have given these at 2 baby showers for mothers to make their own baby food, freeze and then have the convenience of just grabbing one, self-contained, portion. I also use these in my own lunch box for smaller portions and for nuts and seeds I sprinkle on my lunch - genius!

I have used these for many leftover foods as well as for fresh lemon, salsa, pesto, ginger, etc. These are one of the best items I have ever purchased.

The size of the containers are perfect for what I needed. I have a small dog that needs home-cooking due to a sensitive tummy. These containers hold the exact amount of chicken I need for each of his meals. And, I can freeze the extra that I won't be using for a few days. I've been looking for an item like this for so long. Plus the stacking trays for the containers are GREAT!!! No more toppling over containers in my fridge or freezer. So useful for so many things.
