I still prefer Make it mini, they are so darn cute and the attention to detail is better. I also like getting extra items to make other things. The hat is cute, but I don’t need one in each pack.
Agree.. it ridiculous that each capsule has a chef hat light.. and there is barely enough sprinkles to complete it let alone use for something else... I am definitely MGA Miniverse girl
Miniverse is definitely cuter to me and I love that they give us so many extras but I'm still going to pick up some of these too. The projects themselves are cute but I'm a sucker for packaging.
That really surprised me too, maybe they could have sold the UV light on the side and allowed the batteries to be replaceable that way if you buy several capsules you don't have so many uv lights.
I think they were cool . But not as fun looking as the miniverse ones!! ..... And sorry but I hate the fact that they have the Disposable UV light in every one... Its just more plastic and batteries that are going to end up in landfills!! On top of it just not being that strong of a light !?
The chocolate cake was my favorite. I really liked that they actually made it two layers. I think some of the ingredients were better detailed but the little packagings weren't as detailed. Not bad for a first attempt into the mini make it universe.
Some UV resin recipes seem to forget that the resin will only be cured where the UV light can reach it. I would’ve made that ramen in more stages, curing as I went, so each layer got adequate light.
You are right Doodlefish, when i make them my way i do cure them in layers :) but i wanted to try my best to follow their directions to see how things turned out :)
For sure . I do gel nails at home and any gel polish that is darker in color or too thick will not cure at all .. if thr light cannot touch it then it will not cure
The packaging looks like real meal kit packaging. If you open it carefully you can still use it to make "meal kits" for display in a dollhouse or grocery diorama. They should sell the little hat uv lights separately cuz you don't need one with every kit. These look like fun.
With Miniverse I’m wanting savory and nut the desserts as there are too many of those. Of the ones you did here, the desserts were better than the savory dishes, in my opinion. I like Zurus resin colors better. That tomato reduction was really dark and opaque, not like miniverse’s translucent red. There were some things done better and some things done worse. A good first try. But lose the chefs hats.
Oh no! I can see mixing the miniverse and these to make my own recipes. I need those roasted potatoes for my turkey! The details on these seem pretty good and I like how easy the resin pours and they seem to give you enough. The packages look more 'grown-up'. I do like the containers in this brand. At least on the star sprinkles they did put a label to make it look like there is still some in it. Good for using in doll kitchens. The whipped cream is really neat!
The cake was my favorite of course. I love the way the “whipped cream” came in a working can like that. I give them a little break as this is mini brands first go at this. The resin seems to come out easily, big plus. The details on the food look really nice as well.
I don't like how the resin is packaged, or that the ramen and onions come in clumps, but the rest of the ingredients are super cute! Love the baked potatoes and the sliced apricots the most. The UV light feels wasteful, especially because it doesn't work particularly well. But overall I do like the way these turned out, I'll definitely be trying them out. Thank you for another fun video! ❤❤❤
I think the Mini Brands did better with the food miniatures, they look more realistic than the Miniverse’s. Even the resins look more like sauces and broths. On the other hand, Miniverse has a better overall presentation and individual packaging, making them more fun to DIY. But that’s just me 😁
I think you were thinking of maraschino cherries. Thank you for showing this. So far I have only seen promotion pictures. You're the first one I've seen actually open anything. I still call Miniverse better. Mini brands is notorious for duplicates. I've always liked that miniverse just puts one of each thing in a box, and it only has duplicates if the box holds more than there is in the collection. I saw someone open a box of mini brands and almost the entire box was the same one. It was crazy, and such a waste. I "might" get these, only because some of the ingredients are different. I liked the tomato reduction, and the whipped cream. I didn't like the ramen and onions just being a blob that you can't move around to your own liking. I don't like that they are very skimpy on ingredients, but did like the jar for the sprinkles and the can for the apricots. I love that I have extras with miniverse so I can create my own things too. The little UV hat just seems like a waste since it's a throw away. I would like to have one, just to display, but not in every single capsule. I don't know.. I think mixing the two together, instead of competing with each other might be a better way to go.. 😅 I have a feeling my miniverse collection might have just a little mix of mini brands here and there. Oh, and I loved the plate the chocolate cake came with. (sorry for the long opinion post.. hehe)
love the canned fruit, little skimpy on the ingredients! (ie, potatoes, the number of stars on that vs what you got :/ etc) liked the whip cream though.
Hi CC!😊 First I hope you’re having a wonderful day and so happy to see you back.😊 These are pretty great. I’m glad you tried these. I don’t know if I like them as much as mini verse however I did love the apricot cake and that chocolate cake the whipped cream was pretty awesome!😊 I kind of feel this is what we in the mini community look for in some of it.😊 If I see these in a store I would buy a few hoping for the cakes.👍👏 Thanks again for sharing see you next time.😊
Well, the ramen is a disappointment compared to the amazing one we have with Miniverse.😅 And clumping the green onion was poor choice for MiniBrands. They could have sold the light separate and went for better quality ingredients instead with the month they spent on the chefs hat.
Honestly you are just to adding the broth part and I’m completely disappointed with MiniBrands for this. Not worth the price for this one and honestly even if it were three dollars wouldn’t buy it. Not sure if I’ll watch the rest of video or not. It’s not you dear, it’s the product. However I’m very grateful you did this. Tells me wether I’d buy the others or not. And sadly it’s a gamble, since you don’t know which ball has what. So with that said, I’d probably not but any of them.
No worries i understand. I do these reviews to help anyone that wants to first take a look and see if they like them before purchasing. Appreciate you!
If Mini Brands was first on the make it mini concept we'd be more critical of Miniverse. The only thing I'd say Mini Brands has over Miniverse here is the resin being easier to pour. The rest is just plain copying and I'd guess they are way more expensive given the addition of the UV light and more resin. I agree with you that having to hold a miniature UV light for 10 minutes is too much for anyone and didn't need to be included in each kit. (looked up the price and they are the same 9.99 as Miniverse. Surprising.
Wow, these look really cheap like mini brands just threw it together because miniverse was going off. Like miniverse gives you actual pieces of ramen noodles, not just a clump of molded noodles lol
Make it mini wins except for the whipped cream. That’s an awesome detail. The other packaging feels rushed and not nearly as nice as MIM. Plus the ramen being in one piece was disappointing.
I think I wouldn't invest in these. 😅 the chocolate cake was the most interesting and I don't think it would be worth the chase for me. The rest have 1 or 2 things that I would want to save to mix with the miniverse food.
I like how realistic these are, but I think the miniverse is cuter. Too bad the lamp sucks, I was gonna get one just for the lamp. I like the apricot almond cake, but I’m gonna pass on these.
I like the ideas but i still think miniverse does it better. I like the idea of the added UV light but it falls flat and doesnt work well, i agree with another comment about having the uv light seprate (so it can be better quality) like actual resin uv lamps. Again i like the ideas here but i hope its done better in the future 😭
The whipped cream is a silicon clay that air dries. You can buy is for doing crafts. A friend of mine used to decorate literally everything she owned with the stuff. Her phone, her laptop, her kindle....
Ya love the details, and great picture instructions, more details on some but barely any sprinkles or not enough ingredients like Miniverse. I love younger kids can do these and I want the cake but I don’t like the long cure and throw away hat lite. 🥰💚👻
I am a Miniverse girl all the way , but if I were to choose one of these it would be the desserts.. i have wanted more savory items in miniverse, and thr turkey and ham were absolutely adorable, but i didnt get either one sadly. These savory dishes in this minbrands is not very good at all
Unfortunately, no UV lighter in the Summer fruits cake... And the cream doesn't pour as beautifully as in the photos... But it's a fun moment to create our own cake for dolls ! 😉🤗
my faves were the pork loin ( I want to put some of the rosties with the chicken that came in the xmas mini verse balls :) ) and the Black Forest gateaux ( chocolate & cherry cake :)
Mini brands still has more trash than mini verse the ball it comes in is a diaplay box not just a ball you throw... The mini brands ball is not a diaplay shelf or box its a throw away ball.
@@ccstoysandcreations ur good I just thought since its a harder plastic it does take longer to break down than the thinner stuff. Alot of people wouldn't realize tbh I'm just one to notice everything. 😜 not to nit pick ur video. It is cool that they are making them I just hope mini verse doesnt die now because I absolutely love the mini art projects I get to do lol
I like it but that sprinkles jar looked emmmptyyy. Product baggies can be carefully cut on the top, then stuffed up and sealed for an extra item for a dolly kitchen….that way you are getting more for the money. I like that the Make It Mini gives you plenty of product so you have leftover for other projects, that is pretty awesome and I hope they never change that. The small UV light is cool, but it could be seen as a waste of material, because it has a very short working time and then what? Nice decor, but I would trade the idea of the UV light for more product. Instead of having to hold the UV light you could make a little stand out of wire, nothing fancy but it helps. I like how realistic everything looks and I think it’s awesome that they are dipping their toes into making these type of products. Hopefully more companies come up with similar ideas so we can compare. A neat approach would be a product that uses the kind of material they used for the chocolate cake instead of resin. It would be a similar waiting time anyways. ❤
Love the apricots and the roast potatoes, reallyyyyy don’t like the disposable UV light (what a waste), the plastic packaging and the ramen/onions lumped together! Not winning over mini verse for me, but some potential
These were kind of disappointing… not a big fan of the way the food looks, the resin is not colored properly and I don’t really like the style of the packaging… not that that’s a big deal- I’m just more drawn to the make it minis. At first I thought I liked the light then it didn’t work and I realized that every set comes with one which is kind of wasteful. They should put a little more money into it so it actually works, make it have replaceable/rechargeable batteries and sell it separately.
I agree about the concerns with the UV light. I was just telling someone, maybe they could have sold them on the side but not disposable they could have made the batteries replaceable.
My favorite was pork loin. The roasted potatoes are so cute and the pork looks so good. The one I hope to get is the glazed lamb. I don't think I will collect them but I would like to have a few things to add to my miniverse ingredients.
I too don't thing i will collect these but certainly want to review them all for you if i can get my hands on more :) lol. I went back to target today and they were all sold out. :)
Congrats on getting these! I’m trying to find out if all of the wrappers show the strawberry cake? I was only able to get one at my Target store & it did contain the strawberry cake, but the chef’s hat light was missing. 😢
Thanks for sharing CC! Now I know they're worth buying a couple to try! Hoping for whipped cream in something. I want to try refrigerating it for 10 to 15 minutes if it gets too runny, like cookie dough. 😂
I think I would have left the cherries out of the inside of the cake and put them somewhere else in my collection it's silly because you can't see them. Or maybe just put four and put them right at the edge where you can see them
Only thing i like is the half cherries the star sprinkles and the foam sillicon and that you get cans but not that you dont have spare ingridents to keep in the packaging so you have stuff for the pantry/fridge.
@@ccstoysandcreations I got a portable UV light off temu for like $2 its nice cause its pocket size! And it has foladable legs (like a full blown nail one but mini)
I like the idea of master chef by Zuru but, Two things that is very important of make it mini 1. Exactly how do we change the batteries inside of the mini UV light, I try to twist the middle part off but, It didn't budge and I Know that I'm gonna break it that way 2. Where do we put mine UV chef hat whenever we collect them all 😂
I Think the ramen, chives, and chop sticks, all look like little cabochons... There is another way to make loose ramen and not look like Mini Verse ramen, same with the little green onions... And come on, they could of gave us separate chops sticks, theirs are prettier than Mini Verse chop sticks... Well, everything is all blobbed together so separate chop sticks would have been useless anyways ... I think the seaweed would look better cut up in strips or something... Just a thought... Great video as usual ... Take care...
I’ve used white shower caulking from the hardware store in piping bags with tips when I did decoden many years ago? It’s very inexpensive and super fun. Just make sure to get the white, not the clear. These seem ok, but they could’ve applied money for better ingredients rather than the chef hat lights. I hadn’t seen these, but leave it to you to be out here enabling LOL! I can tell that the bottles and containers aren’t in scale with MV, but are the finished items? They still look kinda big? I’ve recorded, edited and uploaded 2 MV videos, but haven’t released them yet. It’s like I’m suffering from stage fright?! It’s not like I’ve never done videos before. 😒 TFS! 🩵
Sometimes I'll use puffy paint in my miniverse crafts instead of resin. Not sure if that's what the white stuff is, but it reminds me of it. Personally I like that I don't have to make the normal mini brands (also, where are the brands?) but I'd still try a couple of these out. The disposable light feels kind of wasteful but at the same time it was nice of them to include something I guess. Miniverse definitely has cuter packaging. These mini brands resin bottles look sad lol
I am absolutely dying to get these. I am beyond excited for the savory items. But that apricot cheesecake, omg luv!!! I really like elements n dislike a few, like how the Ramen was stuck together already. I love how miniverse it's like individual noodles vs the already formed noodles in minibrands. But it's on par for minibrands. I love the ingredients in these tho more realistic in some areas. I think miniverse is more giving on extras tho, mini brands seems to just give exactly what u need. For me as someone who hoards her extras that's a downside to these. Overall I am so excited to find these. Can't wait till I can add these to my collection of minis!
I definitely think the mini verses are better so much cuter ❤and I don’t like how the lights only have 2 hrs use and then can’t change the battery or charge it so wasteful. But still fun 🤩 I have worked with that whipped stuff but I have seen it used I think it’s like a silicone or yes a glue. I have seen it on Temu and Ali express.
I may get a couple of these for the food items alone. But I only have to use uv light with miniverse for 20 seconds...give or take. Oh well, I love Mini Brands for all their other stuff.
They're definitely better sculpted and painted than miniverse plus that "whipped cream" opened so many creative possibilities however i think the little packaging being only masterchef is kinda meh compared to the cuteness and collectible aspect of miniverse. I think it's great that they have competition since with can mix them up.
I think the hat would be better with more bulbs in them. I really like these as much as the make it mini, you dont have to try and follow the recipe, you could use it as guide and just have fun doing the dish your own way.... I like that it gives us more mini items and we can use them together eith make it mini.
Oh I misunderstood when you mentioned competition. I thought somehow it would be some ingredients that you could make your own recipe out of. A bit like your challenges with your husband (had they been listening?!) Anyway I think the cakes work best here although nt sure of the proportions of apricot slices and almond slivers. Mini can is cute though and I would like to see the profiteroles. Are these priced similar to MiniVerse?
Hi :) i got them at target they were 9.99 plus tax :) the kitchen is mini verse the fridge and pantry to the right are made by me :) the shelf after the mini verse kitchen was make by my husband and the far left one is the mini verse all you can eat shelf
Just out of curiosity, cause I don’t live in USA anyway, but how did you find these so fast? I’ve see no one with these in UA-cam and didn’t know it was going to be a thing
Awesome Find. You’ve been missed. Loved the last three. They shorted us on the details of the first. I’ve been watching tutorials on polymer food. I want to make translucent onions whole and chopped. Seen a tutorial with them now I’m obsessed. So I was breathless when you pulled out the onions.😢Just to be let down once you opened them. SMH. Loved the video. Huge van of Master Chef. So I was sold at the name. The details on the pieces are nice. But we all have high standards due to MiniVerse. Pray for me when my Husband gets the credit card statement…SMH and falling to my knees
Also I found the baked potatoes, burgers, and skewers. I will be giving the weights that I found my capsules on my channel as I get them. Not as a guarantee, but perhaps as a step closer. The blind is fun. But not cost efficient. Check me out CC. I would love your feedback. Stayed blessed.
Is the image printed on the paper wrappers pixelated? Maybe it’s just how it seems from the distance in the video. I don’t like the amount of waste there is going to be with all these lights. There is already waste with the balls but now extra plastic with the weak lights plus the battery.
First thing I have to say is you have an adorable personality . I bet children absolutely love you. It looks like the bags are paper and the bowl in the Chopsticks were so bright and adorable I didn't really care about the kind of dull paper package that came in. The other one comes with little individual plastic packages. Again I have to mention how cute and bright the bowl design. It is way more attractive and realistic looking fed the mini verse. The ramen of course it's going to be in a circle like that because how else would it be because you're going to be adding things to the top it doesn't need to be any different and what did you want it individual noodles I'm very confused I don't mean any offense it just sounds kind of strange like you're looking for something not to like. I think the container looks like a lot bigger than the other company the only thing I don't care for is the green onion it could have been flakes. Even though it's temporary the lamp is really handy. I don't know if you work with resin very often but if you pour that much as you did all at once it will take a long time to harden. So maybe you should have put a little later just making sure everything was connected and then did it in layers and it would have hardened much faster. I hope that helps. I've been working with UV resin and that's one thing you learn if you pour a whole bunch at once it's going to take forever to harden. So small amounts multiple layers. I just think the dish and everything looked adorable. They do give you a ton of resin which is way better than mini verse.
@@ccstoysandcreations I want to get those potato’s to go with my ham dinner. We always make ham with green beans and new potatoes. I can’t wait to see what else they have.
Ok so I am torn on these lol you did a great job! the ramen and green onions being clumps is disappointing and the amount of ingredients given are as well. I do like some things like the apricots and cherries. I do think the little chef hats are adorable bu should be made to use more than that like take batteries. If these do come into my stores I will have to get a couple to try them though. the desserts were my fave but did like the meat and potato one as well! :)
I agree Melissa, the desserts were my favorite too !!! I think we can use several of these with mini verse items :) i am up for the challenge. Now i just need to find some more lol
I still prefer Make it mini, they are so darn cute and the attention to detail is better. I also like getting extra items to make other things. The hat is cute, but I don’t need one in each pack.
Same! They were even the ones who came up with it first!
Agree.. it ridiculous that each capsule has a chef hat light.. and there is barely enough sprinkles to complete it let alone use for something else... I am definitely MGA Miniverse girl
The white stuff is decoden whip. It’s an air dry silicone clay material. People use it to decorate phone cases or faux desserts.
How cool!
Where should I buy it?
@SweetyHelen92 they have it on Amazon, but it's cheaper on aliexpress and temu
Awesome, thank you very much i need to find some :) and try it with mini verse items :)
Miniverse is definitely cuter to me and I love that they give us so many extras but I'm still going to pick up some of these too. The projects themselves are cute but I'm a sucker for packaging.
Me too :) but i agree, i too want to get 2 more just to have some extra ingredients on the side to combine :)
I don't like the amount of plastic waste just from the chef hat uv light 😮... 2hrs the toss 🙅🏾🙅🏾
That really surprised me too, maybe they could have sold the UV light on the side and allowed the batteries to be replaceable that way if you buy several capsules you don't have so many uv lights.
I think they were cool . But not as fun looking as the miniverse ones!!
..... And sorry but I hate the fact that they have the Disposable UV light in every one... Its just more plastic and batteries that are going to end up in landfills!! On top of it just not being that strong of a light !?
i wonder if they had to do the light with a max amount of watts for it to be safe for kids?
The chocolate cake was my favorite. I really liked that they actually made it two layers. I think some of the ingredients were better detailed but the little packagings weren't as detailed. Not bad for a first attempt into the mini make it universe.
Exactly 🥰💚👻
I agree :) i want to get another cake :) and use it with mini verse items :)
Some UV resin recipes seem to forget that the resin will only be cured where the UV light can reach it. I would’ve made that ramen in more stages, curing as I went, so each layer got adequate light.

The packaging looks like real meal kit packaging. If you open it carefully you can still use it to make "meal kits" for display in a dollhouse or grocery diorama. They should sell the little hat uv lights separately cuz you don't need one with every kit. These look like fun.
Yes i love that idea and i also agree with the uv light.
Oh dear!! There goes the rest of my money!! I MUST have these too! 😂😢😅
Right?!

I think the Mini Brands Create is taking a more realistic approach than Miniverse but I prefer cute over realistic any day lol
Oh no! I can see mixing the miniverse and these to make my own recipes. I need those roasted potatoes for my turkey! The details on these seem pretty good and I like how easy the resin pours and they seem to give you enough. The packages look more 'grown-up'. I do like the containers in this brand. At least on the star sprinkles they did put a label to make it look like there is still some in it. Good for using in doll kitchens. The whipped cream is really neat!
They definitely should make the Uv light rechargeable
I agree!!! I was just Mentioning i went back to buy 2 more so i could combine them with mini verse but my target was all sold out :)
Sorry, zuru but with my experience, I’ve done yours and Miniverse Miniverse is better in my opinion
The cake was my favorite of course. I love the way the “whipped cream” came in a working can like that. I give them a little break as this is mini brands first go at this. The resin seems to come out easily, big plus. The details on the food look really nice as well.

Hi CC!😊
First I hope you’re having a wonderful day and so happy to see you back.😊
These are pretty great.
I’m glad you tried these.
I don’t know if I like them as much as mini verse however I did love the apricot cake and that chocolate cake the whipped cream was pretty awesome!😊
I kind of feel this is what we in the mini community look for in some of it.😊
If I see these in a store I would buy a few hoping for the cakes.👍👏
Thanks again for sharing see you next time.😊
Thank you very much!
the inner packaging is underwhelming. I'm used to the cute bottles and containers from Miniverse and like that better.
Me too :)

The disposable uv light seems like a disgusting waste of plastic and batteries! 🤦♂️🌎💀
Agree :(
I would use Mini brands version as ingredients in my doll kitchen. I wouldn't cure them.
That is a good idea :)
I think I wouldn't invest in these. 😅 the chocolate cake was the most interesting and I don't think it would be worth the chase for me. The rest have 1 or 2 things that I would want to save to mix with the miniverse food.
Thank you for watching Chiru :)
I am SO pissed at the disposable UV light. That just feels like it brings waste to an extreme level.
I was surprised when i read it only lasted for 2 hrs.
I like how realistic these are, but I think the miniverse is cuter. Too bad the lamp sucks, I was gonna get one just for the lamp. I like the apricot almond cake, but I’m gonna pass on these.
Oh no!! I’m in trouble!!
That is two of us :)
What would Gordon Ramsay say about this…. Dammmnn 🤬🙄😆😆
That is a good question lol. :)
I kinda like the desserts but if they were in miniverse it would be my least favorite :( not a fan of this sorry 😞 🥲
No worries nothing to apologize for :)

Ya love the details, and great picture instructions, more details on some but barely any sprinkles or not enough ingredients like Miniverse. I love younger kids can do these and I want the cake but I don’t like the long cure and throw away hat lite. 🥰💚👻
The can of apricots was nice. But that’s the only thing I liked in that one.
I loved the canned apricots too!
I am a Miniverse girl all the way , but if I were to choose one of these it would be the desserts.. i have wanted more savory items in miniverse, and thr turkey and ham were absolutely adorable, but i didnt get either one sadly. These savory dishes in this minbrands is not very good at all
Welcome Back. Ah look so cute
👍🎀🤍❤️
😊Thank you very much!
Zuru what are you doing to us 😮 im spending way too much money on the miniverse now you bring these out 🤦🏻♀️
I expected more from mini brands and master chef 😬 it seems like they put more of the budget into the meat than anything else 😬
Cute! Huge missed opportunity though cause they totally could have used name brand foods to assemble which would be so amazing!
I love your idea! that would have been an awesome opportunity!
Unfortunately, no UV lighter in the Summer fruits cake... And the cream doesn't pour as beautifully as in the photos... But it's a fun moment to create our own cake for dolls ! 😉🤗
Aw so sorry :) but you are very right its a fun moment :)
my faves were the pork loin ( I want to put some of the rosties with the chicken that came in the xmas mini verse balls :) ) and the Black Forest gateaux ( chocolate & cherry cake :)
I loved the cake too!
Mini brands still has more trash than mini verse the ball it comes in is a diaplay box not just a ball you throw... The mini brands ball is not a diaplay shelf or box its a throw away ball.
I had not paid attention to that you are very right :)
@@ccstoysandcreations ur good I just thought since its a harder plastic it does take longer to break down than the thinner stuff. Alot of people wouldn't realize tbh I'm just one to notice everything. 😜 not to nit pick ur video. It is cool that they are making them I just hope mini verse doesnt die now because I absolutely love the mini art projects I get to do lol
I like it but that sprinkles jar looked emmmptyyy. Product baggies can be carefully cut on the top, then stuffed up and sealed for an extra item for a dolly kitchen….that way you are getting more for the money. I like that the Make It Mini gives you plenty of product so you have leftover for other projects, that is pretty awesome and I hope they never change that. The small UV light is cool, but it could be seen as a waste of material, because it has a very short working time and then what? Nice decor, but I would trade the idea of the UV light for more product. Instead of having to hold the UV light you could make a little stand out of wire, nothing fancy but it helps. I like how realistic everything looks and I think it’s awesome that they are dipping their toes into making these type of products. Hopefully more companies come up with similar ideas so we can compare. A neat approach would be a product that uses the kind of material they used for the chocolate cake instead of resin. It would be a similar waiting time anyways. ❤
Thank you very much appreciate you stopping by
Love the apricots and the roast potatoes, reallyyyyy don’t like the disposable UV light (what a waste), the plastic packaging and the ramen/onions lumped together! Not winning over mini verse for me, but some potential
Agree!
I didn't even know these existed. Mini vs you in trouble girl lol.
These were kind of disappointing… not a big fan of the way the food looks, the resin is not colored properly and I don’t really like the style of the packaging… not that that’s a big deal- I’m just more drawn to the make it minis. At first I thought I liked the light then it didn’t work and I realized that every set comes with one which is kind of wasteful. They should put a little more money into it so it actually works, make it have replaceable/rechargeable batteries and sell it separately.
I agree about the concerns with the UV light. I was just telling someone, maybe they could have sold them on the side but not disposable they could have made the batteries replaceable.
My favorite was pork loin. The roasted potatoes are so cute and the pork looks so good. The one I hope to get is the glazed lamb. I don't think I will collect them but I would like to have a few things to add to my miniverse ingredients.
I too don't thing i will collect these but certainly want to review them all for you if i can get my hands on more :) lol. I went back to target today and they were all sold out. :)
I feel like Miniverse has it down, look forward to what mini brands comes up with and if they will make the corrections:)
Very true :) hopefully they read, hear everyone's feedback and improve as they find needed :)
Congrats on getting these! I’m trying to find out if all of the wrappers show the strawberry cake? I was only able to get one at my Target store & it did contain the strawberry cake, but the chef’s hat light was missing. 😢
Oh no i am so sorry about that .
Ramen and pork dish was my favorite...I think I like these more... hopefully being mini brands they will make a kitchen and counters for them
That would be very interesting to review and see what they come up with :)
It's Deco. It's kind of like a more liquid like air dry clay.
Ahhhh Deco i need to find some online to try to use with my mini pipping tips :) ty ty ty
Love it!! They all look so good!! I think the deserts were my favorite. Can not wait to find them.
I see a lot of intermixing in my near future.
Yes me too!
Master Chef is supposed to be a challenge
18:01 Maraschino Cherries 🍒🥰
ah yes!!! thank you!
I bet that whip cream is kind of like a spackle type substance.
So cute! Where did you find them?
Hi :) I found them at Target
Oh, these are interesting. But not very charming 😅
Welcome back, CC! ❤
Loved your video ♥️
My favorites were the cakes i might buy one but really want a cake. See you next time 😊
Yes I agree!
Maraschino Cherry's 🍒
Wow you can’t even reuse the lamp that they give. That really makes it a ton of waste in my opinion!
I agree !
Thanks for sharing CC! Now I know they're worth buying a couple to try! Hoping for whipped cream in something. I want to try refrigerating it for 10 to 15 minutes if it gets too runny, like cookie dough. 😂
Still not that good of a product tho
Maraschino cherries, is what I believe you are referring to.
Yes!!!!!!! thank you so much!
The whipped cream has to be glue! There is a really thick craft glue. The chocolate cake is definitely my favorite!!
It's silicon clay, fake deserts are made with it.
It’s decoder, a kinda silicone thing
Thank you for stopping by, i believe you are right it does have glue like smell. :)
I think I would have left the cherries out of the inside of the cake and put them somewhere else in my collection it's silly because you can't see them. Or maybe just put four and put them right at the edge where you can see them
Wish i would have thought of that such a great idea 🥹
@@ccstoysandcreations you do awesome things 👍💜
Only thing i like is the half cherries the star sprinkles and the foam sillicon and that you get cans but not that you dont have spare ingridents to keep in the packaging so you have stuff for the pantry/fridge.
Yes i wish they would've added a tiny bit of extra ingredients even if that mean not adding a UV light :)
@@ccstoysandcreations I got a portable UV light off temu for like $2 its nice cause its pocket size! And it has foladable legs (like a full blown nail one but mini)
The cherries you were thinking of are glacier cherries 😊
Thank you very much :)
I like the idea of master chef by Zuru but, Two things that is very important of make it mini
1. Exactly how do we change the batteries inside of the mini UV light, I try to twist the middle part off but, It didn't budge and I Know that I'm gonna break it that way
2. Where do we put mine UV chef hat whenever we collect them all 😂
I Think the ramen, chives, and chop sticks, all look like little cabochons... There is another way to make loose ramen and not look like Mini Verse ramen, same with the little green onions... And come on, they could of gave us separate chops sticks, theirs are prettier than Mini Verse chop sticks... Well, everything is all blobbed together so separate chop sticks would have been useless anyways ... I think the seaweed would look better cut up in strips or something... Just a thought... Great video as usual ... Take care...
I’ve used white shower caulking from the hardware store in piping bags with tips when I did decoden many years ago? It’s very inexpensive and super fun. Just make sure to get the white, not the clear. These seem ok, but they could’ve applied money for better ingredients rather than the chef hat lights. I hadn’t seen these, but leave it to you to be out here enabling LOL! I can tell that the bottles and containers aren’t in scale with MV, but are the finished items? They still look kinda big? I’ve recorded, edited and uploaded 2 MV videos, but haven’t released them yet. It’s like I’m suffering from stage fright?! It’s not like I’ve never done videos before. 😒 TFS! 🩵
thank you so much for the decoden tips !!! i do believe they are in scale with mini verse finished items :) the cheesecake is very similar in size
Sometimes I'll use puffy paint in my miniverse crafts instead of resin. Not sure if that's what the white stuff is, but it reminds me of it. Personally I like that I don't have to make the normal mini brands (also, where are the brands?) but I'd still try a couple of these out. The disposable light feels kind of wasteful but at the same time it was nice of them to include something I guess. Miniverse definitely has cuter packaging. These mini brands resin bottles look sad lol
:) we are used to the colorful packaging of mini verse right :) ? Thank you for stopping by :)
I am absolutely dying to get these. I am beyond excited for the savory items. But that apricot cheesecake, omg luv!!! I really like elements n dislike a few, like how the Ramen was stuck together already. I love how miniverse it's like individual noodles vs the already formed noodles in minibrands. But it's on par for minibrands. I love the ingredients in these tho more realistic in some areas. I think miniverse is more giving on extras tho, mini brands seems to just give exactly what u need. For me as someone who hoards her extras that's a downside to these. Overall I am so excited to find these. Can't wait till I can add these to my collection of minis!
Thank you Callielou2 they are certainly worth trying and they are very fun to build too :)
How could they make a disposable elektronic? That’s evil
I definitely think the mini verses are better so much cuter ❤and I don’t like how the lights only have 2 hrs use and then can’t change the battery or charge it so wasteful. But still fun 🤩 I have worked with that whipped stuff but I have seen it used I think it’s like a silicone or yes a glue. I have seen it on Temu and Ali express.
I may get a couple of these for the food items alone. But I only have to use uv light with miniverse for 20 seconds...give or take. Oh well, I love Mini Brands for all their other stuff.
Omgeee the chocolate cake is my favorite!
:) I like it too!
They're definitely better sculpted and painted than miniverse plus that "whipped cream" opened so many creative possibilities however i think the little packaging being only masterchef is kinda meh compared to the cuteness and collectible aspect of miniverse.
I think it's great that they have competition since with can mix them up.
The M on the table is the master chef symbol.
Yes :) it is i believe they collaborated for this series :)
I think the hat would be better with more bulbs in them. I really like these as much as the make it mini, you dont have to try and follow the recipe, you could use it as guide and just have fun doing the dish your own way.... I like that it gives us more mini items and we can use them together eith make it mini.
Those lil roasted potatoes tho
Right! they are really cute. :)
Oh I misunderstood when you mentioned competition. I thought somehow it would be some ingredients that you could make your own recipe out of. A bit like your challenges with your husband (had they been listening?!) Anyway I think the cakes work best here although nt sure of the proportions of apricot slices and almond slivers. Mini can is cute though and I would like to see the profiteroles.
Are these priced similar to MiniVerse?
Me too the profiteroles sounds and looks awesome, these i got at Target for 9.99 plus tax each :)
Can I know where you got them please? Also, where did you get the counter and extra kitchen shelves that go with your kitchen? Love your vids
Hi :) i got them at target they were 9.99 plus tax :) the kitchen is mini verse the fridge and pantry to the right are made by me :) the shelf after the mini verse kitchen was make by my husband and the far left one is the mini verse all you can eat shelf
sooo cute…do more of these recipes
Thank you, I will try :) i went back to target today but they were sold out
MINI VERSE
Thank you for stopping by :)
@@ccstoysandcreations what?
Just out of curiosity, cause I don’t live in USA anyway, but how did you find these so fast? I’ve see no one with these in UA-cam and didn’t know it was going to be a thing
I got them at Target :) i went back today and they were all sold out.
😮😮i have to try one of these❤❤i love these so much,how funnnn!!!
You should! Hope you like them :)
Awesome Find. You’ve been missed. Loved the last three. They shorted us on the details of the first. I’ve been watching tutorials on polymer food. I want to make translucent onions whole and chopped. Seen a tutorial with them now I’m obsessed. So I was breathless when you pulled out the onions.😢Just to be let down once you opened them. SMH. Loved the video. Huge van of Master Chef. So I was sold at the name. The details on the pieces are nice. But we all have high standards due to MiniVerse. Pray for me when my Husband gets the credit card statement…SMH and falling to my knees
Also I found the baked potatoes, burgers, and skewers. I will be giving the weights that I found my capsules on my channel as I get them. Not as a guarantee, but perhaps as a step closer. The blind is fun. But not cost efficient. Check me out CC. I would love your feedback. Stayed blessed.
Thank you very much Laana :)
Some of the colors of resin I like and some I didn’t. Some of them seemed so dark or the wrong color for the deserts n stuff.
Is the image printed on the paper wrappers pixelated? Maybe it’s just how it seems from the distance in the video. I don’t like the amount of waste there is going to be with all these lights. There is already waste with the balls but now extra plastic with the weak lights plus the battery.
Yes the image printed on some is pixelated not too clear.
A question does the master chef uv light hat come with each set or is it separate
From what I seen when she was opening them you get one in every ball which would make sense as she said they only have a 2 hour life span
Yes.
You see her open the packages
in the video you can literally see they come in each ball
It comes with all of them
It comes with each one. I bet it has to be child safe though. 🤷♀️
Basically mini brands copied mini verse
First thing I have to say is you have an adorable personality . I bet children absolutely love you. It looks like the bags are paper and the bowl in the Chopsticks were so bright and adorable I didn't really care about the kind of dull paper package that came in. The other one comes with little individual plastic packages. Again I have to mention how cute and bright the bowl design. It is way more attractive and realistic looking fed the mini verse. The ramen of course it's going to be in a circle like that because how else would it be because you're going to be adding things to the top it doesn't need to be any different and what did you want it individual noodles I'm very confused I don't mean any offense it just sounds kind of strange like you're looking for something not to like. I think the container looks like a lot bigger than the other company the only thing I don't care for is the green onion it could have been flakes. Even though it's temporary the lamp is really handy. I don't know if you work with resin very often but if you pour that much as you did all at once it will take a long time to harden. So maybe you should have put a little later just making sure everything was connected and then did it in layers and it would have hardened much faster. I hope that helps. I've been working with UV resin and that's one thing you learn if you pour a whole bunch at once it's going to take forever to harden. So small amounts multiple layers. I just think the dish and everything looked adorable. They do give you a ton of resin which is way better than mini verse.
Not as colorful look cheaper but i cant feel them so i may buy 1 to try
It seems like these are meant to look more realistic.
Yes i believe you are right :) i loved some of the items it came with i need to go look for 1 or 2 more to mix with mini verse :)
@@ccstoysandcreations I want to get those potato’s to go with my ham dinner. We always make ham with green beans and new potatoes. I can’t wait to see what else they have.
This is great for people who like more details
Ok so I am torn on these lol you did a great job! the ramen and green onions being clumps is disappointing and the amount of ingredients given are as well. I do like some things like the apricots and cherries. I do think the little chef hats are adorable bu should be made to use more than that like take batteries. If these do come into my stores I will have to get a couple to try them though. the desserts were my fave but did like the meat and potato one as well! :)
I agree Melissa, the desserts were my favorite too !!! I think we can use several of these with mini verse items :) i am up for the challenge. Now i just need to find some more lol
