Snack Buddy (Blue) - Modular Lunch Box System

Meet the Snack Buddy – the little box that goes a long way. With a 400ml capacity, it’s roomy enough for a decent snack, but compact enough to mix and match with the rest of your lunchbox lineup.

Think popcorn for movie-day lunches, pretzels for crunch, cut-up fruit for freshness, or a slice when you’ve had time to bake. It’s just as happy holding slices or cookies, too. This box is for real families, real appetites, and real food – no cling wrap required.

Made from tough, food-grade stainless steel with a snug silicone lid, the Snack Buddy is dishwasher safe, leak-resistant for thick liquids (like yoghurt or dip), and built to last. Because kids grow, appetites grow, and the way you pack lunch should be able to grow with them.

  • Bigger snacks for bigger kids (eg popcorn, pretzels, crisps, cut up fruit)
  • Parents who want to ditch the bento but keep the flexibility
  • Packing “nude food” without single-use plastics
  • Everyday snacks you can just grab and go

FAQs

Before putting away make sure your lunch box is completely dry. We recommend storing your lunch box with the lid off. This is to avoid a build up of any food smells.

Yes! we have a growing list of stockists. We are currently stocked in stores in QLD, WA, VIC, NSW and SA. We will happily put you in touch with a stockist near you.  You can contact us here.

Silicone is prone to staining with watery and dark coloured foods, for example watermelon or tomato juice.

Soaking in hot soapy water with a very small amount of bleach added will help to remove the stains. Stains will naturally fade and disappear over time. We will not replace stained silicone as this is considered part of the normal wear and tear of the product.

Silicone can absorb odors from scented dishwashing liquids or tablets. To prevent this, we recommend using fragrance-free dishwashing liquids or tablets, often labeled as "eco products" and available at most supermarkets. If your silicone products develop a soapy smell or taste, try one of the following deep cleaning methods:

Deep Cleaning Silicone:

1. Vinegar + Baking Soda

  • Mix equal parts hot water and vinegar in a sink or bowl.
  • Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda (it should fizz).
  • Let the silicone soak for a few hours or overnight.
  • Rinse and dry. Repeat if needed.

2. Boil in Water + Vinegar

  • Fill a pot with 3/4 water and 1/4 vinegar (enough to cover the silicone).
  • Boil for 10-15 minutes, then rinse and dry.

Our lunch boxes are completely dishwasher safe. All components (silicone and stainless steel) can be washed this way. They are also suitable for hand washing.

Our lunchboxes are crafted from high-grade 304 food-safe stainless steel and have been independently tested to meet FDA food safety standards. We use 100% pure silicone, also independently tested and LFGB certified—the highest standard for food-safe silicone products.

We've worked hard to create tough, hard wearing products but all products are susceptible to wear and tear. Scratches or dents may occur with use of our stainless steel lunch boxes.

Our build your base range has been designed to suit children (and adults!) of all ages.

Our products and packaging are designed in Australia and manufactured in China.

Perfect for my twin toddlers

These boxes are excellent and so versatile. We recently took our twin toddlers overseas and had these packed in the backpack at all times. Great for snacks but found them most useful for restaurant leftovers and buffet breakfast food, and feeding it to the kids later instead of buying packaged snacks. They are light weight, durable and easy to clean and dry in the hotel room. We also use them for playgroup snacks time.

High quality and great design

We really love Nudie Rudie lunchboxes! Last year when we started out solids journey, I wanted to get something durable and low rod for my baby. After getting the lunchbox, this time I purchased the snack containers and we are loving it! Easier for packing quick snacks on the go. The lid works perfectly sealing everything inside. No leaks. Thank you!!!

Lids not tight enough and Come off way too easily not secure for the contents inside and also means they just leak

Thanks for your feedback. We note that the same comment has been posted across several of our products, so we’d just like to clarify how these containers are designed to work.

Our Snack Buddy uses a soft silicone lid rather than a clasp-style closure. Because of this, the lid doesn’t “lock” on, but it is designed to sit securely when the silicone is pressed fully and evenly around the edge of the base.

If fitted correctly, the lid should remain in place with normal movement in a lunch bag — you should even be able to gently turn it upside down and have the lid stay on. In our experience, the most common cause of lids coming loose is the silicone not being pressed down evenly all the way around the rim.

With the lid seated properly around the edge, the container will remain secure during normal use.
