I’ve been searching for a travel bowl that could do double duty as both a bowl and a plate. I finally found the JSK Space Saving Kitchenware range and was so impressed that I ordered the complete 11-piece kit.

The products are made from food-grade silicone and are thoughtfully designed for travel. I particularly like that the containers don’t have a pop-top, which makes them much more secure for carrying soups, yoghurt or other liquids. The lids seal well and also double as plates, saving valuable space when travelling.

Every piece feels well made and packs down neatly. My favourite is the snack cup, which will be perfect when I head back to backpacking. It’s ideal for carrying blueberries, nuts or other snacks in my day pack and, once empty, it collapses down to take up very little room. It can also be used as a collapsible drinking cup when needed.

A special mention to owner Jacquie, who went out of her way to make sure my order reached me while I was on the move. That level of customer service is rare and very much appreciated.

When I eventually settle back into having a kitchen again, I can see this whole kit becoming part of my everyday life. Its clever, space-saving design means a lot of my bulky kitchen items will no longer be needed. It’s great to support an Australian business creating practical, high-quality products that are built to last.

One suggestion I’d love to see in the range would be a round collapsible bowl that’s perfect for cereal, along with an optional rigid protective lid that could be purchased separately. I think it would make an already excellent travel range even more versatile for backpackers and travellers.
