The Best Reusable Silicone Bowl Covers
Have you often thought about how much we could really use some reusable silicone bowl covers? I know I have. Yes, I have plastic wrap, but it doesn’t stay as tight and secure as I would like it. Recently, I was contacted about doing a review on these awesome reusable California Houseware Silicone Bowl Covers, and I jumped on it. The company even offered two sets for two readers, what’s not to love, right?
So, I started thinking about how easy these would work on all of my bowls and they will stack neatly inside of one another. You can see through the lids which I love and they do not slip like plastic wrap.
Please remember this review is my opinion and I want you know I do not recommend something I will not use myself.
Silicone Bowl Covers
The picture below I put together for a party tonight. Look how nice the silicone bowl cover fits all the different size bowls. The large bowl is full of tortilla chips, the medium bowl has grated cheese, and the small bowl has some salsa. I’m also taking the jar to the party because I want to make sure I bring plenty of salsa.
Here’s the deal with cans of fruit, if you put plastic wrap on a bowl, it drips, these do not drip. Yay, for silicone bowl covers!
This is one of my larger bowls and it stretched really well over the diameter of it.
Mark and I are taking white chili to the party tonight along with the chips and salsa. You can see how nice the Mozzarella cheese is viewable through the cover.
Another nice tidbit is that the small silicone bowl covers will fit on our regular mouth mason jars! Woohoo! Who loves some M & M peanuts?
I’m so excited to have a giveaway today. There will be two winners and they will each win one set of 7 pieces of these silicone bowl covers. You can buy some here on Amazon: California Houseware
Silicone Bowl Covers
I quote their website:
“✓ YOU GET – The stretching lids have enough elastic, allowing you to have a secure cover for a variety of shapes and sizes from small to extra-large for your different, even rectangular containers
❶ Special XL size 9.5” to14”
❷ 7.9” to 11”
❸ 6.5” to 9”
❹ 5.9” to 8”
❺ 4.7” to 6”
❻ 3.7” to 5”
❼ 2.8” to 4”
They’re even stackable.
These silicone lids are circular in shape but stretchy and pliable enough, seals snugly round and even odd-shaped and rectangle items.
Tips on how to use them:
1. Keep the surface dry before you put these silicone cover lids on.
2. Place half of the lid over one edge of the container. Start on the side closest to your body.
3. Stretch the other half of the lid away from you, inching your way around the bowl.
4. Stretch, then press the top of the lid while pulling the tabs to create a vacuum seal.
5. Pull the sides to ensure a perfect fit.” End of quote.

Broken, plastic bowl covers are one of my many frustrations in the kitchen.
I assume they can be purchased. Very long contest, I must admit (almost a year).
Hi John, the contest is only a week, thanks for letting me know about the typo! LOL! I changed it to Nov. 7th, 2018. I had eye surgery and I tell you this is not fun trying to type with one. Thanks for your patience! Linda
These would be awesome! Thanks for all the research! I always learn something new from your posts!

Hi C. LeGall, your comment gave me the giggles! Your husband being a Saran wrap freak!! This is so funny! Happy Halloween to you! Linda
Thanks for this review. Love that the small one fits a mason jar.
I could use them. It’s such a pain fighting through all the bowls and lids. Why don’t any of the lids in the drawer fit the bowls? Are there gremlins in my kitchen?
Hi Manetta, oh my gosh, those darn gremlins! I hear you on that one! I love it! Linda
Would love to win these. I’m pretty good at keeping my bowl covers and where I can find them but everyone has containers that don’t have covers.
Hi Lisa, these really are awesome even if we have the regular lids. These fit tightly over the bowls. Good luck, Linda
These covers are awesome! So handy!
Hi Camie, thanks for entering, they are so awesome! Linda
Hi Linda, I would love to win these also! You may also want to change the entry rules a bit as you have this ending before it starts, I think the ending month should be November… thanks for all your great posts!
Hi Jan, you are so nice, someone told me and I quickly changed it. I had eye surgery and it’s so hard to type with only one eye. Thank you so much for letting me know! Linda

These look like an excellent product!
HI Doris, They really are, thank for stopping by and entering my contest. Linda
Since I never win the plastic wrap fight and it comes out all wonky I would love these covers.
What a great invention!
Hi Bebe, I was thinking the same thing, it is a great invention! Linda
I commented but it hasn’t been added to the list. Where did it go?
As I said in the first one I am a loser in the wrapping with plastic wrap
skills. Would love a set of covers. What a wonderful invention!
Hi Bebe, yes you are in, no worries, thanks for entering! I have to approve each comment because every once in a while people say things that are not acceptable for my readers to see or me for that matter. lol! All is good, Linda
I have moved from plastic storage containers to glass with snap on lids (you know the kind) and I admit that the lids are kind of a pain to clean. These covers would be very helpful. Thanks for passing on the give-a-way. I knew it would be popular!
Hi Debbie, oh I so glad you like the giveaway! I love the bowl covers! Linda
Looks like a good product, I ordered a set on Amazon. They are offering a coupon giving a little over
$2.00 off.
When I win the free set, will give it to my kids.
Maybe it will encourage them to start saving and eating leftovers ??? :).
Hi Gary, oh I love your comment!!! I have the giggles, encourage leftovers!! I love that!! Linda
These look awesome, Linda! Thanks for the opportunity to try them! 🙂
Hi Tanya, i”m so excited they gave me extra ones to do as a giveaway! They are awesome! Linda
Those look wonderful, are they available on Amazon?
Hi Janet, yes they are available on Amazon. A reader even said they have a $2.00 coupon off. I had to type in California Houseware (no S). I love these! They have a 15% off coupon. Linda
Happy Halloween and thank you for showing us something that is pretty unique. These would be a great earth saver as the amount of Saran Wrap and foil we use to cover our take away bowls would ring the earth.
I would love to try these as it sounds a lot better than another lap full of jello.
P. S. Hope the eye heals quickly
The covers look wonderful. I will put these on my wish list for Christmas.
Hi Cindy, they are really easy to use! I love them. Thanks for stopping by. Linda
I would love to have some of these! I’m so tired of the covers I have where the “elastic” gives out after the first use. Something like this would be so nice to have!
Hi Robbie, these are so nice because they can be used with hot or cold food. I love the reusable idea! Linda
These are new to me! I have been suffering through a roll of plastic wrap with a faulty tear strip. Very frustrating! These silicone covers would be awesome to win!
Hi Jean, the minute you said suffering through the plastic wrap with a faulty tear strip, I could totally see it in my mind. Thanks for stopping by. Linda
These sound great! Saves money and reduces disposable plastic wrap useage.
I’d like to try these!
Thanks for your review.
Hi Jenny, I think we are all looking for things to reduce disposable items. Thanks for stopping by. Linda

I have been looking for a substitute. I hate plastic wrap!
Hi Stacey, me too! I want more reusable items!! Linda
These would be perfect for me. I live in a rural area and hate to drive into town to shop for non reusable items. Is there a link to purchase these?
Hi Carol, yes you can buy them on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GQLD9H8/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=foostomom00-20&linkId=52a46aa799297bc26091b23309209948&language=en_US Thanks for stopping by. Linda

I have a small selection of glass bowls with silicone lids, but they’re all small. I’d love to use these on my larger bowls that have no lids.
Hi Annette, if you have some then you know just how they work! They are so awesome! Thanks for stopping by, Linda
I want some!
Hi Kathie, that’s exactly what I said when they sent me the email about the silicone covers! Linda

P.S. love getting your newsletters!
Hi Bruce, thanks for stopping by! You made my day, I’m glad you like my newsletter! Linda
The small one seems ideal for covering leftover canned dog food (my dog only eats 1/2 can per day), but are they easy enough for people with arthritis, etc. to use?
Hi Roxanne, I bet the small would fit on for sure. You are so right, they would be awesome for people with arthritis!! I have arthritis and I love them! Linda
This wouldn’t fix so many problems, I would love to win this set!
Hi Cindy. I love these reusable lids. I like that the price of them is practical to buy as well! Thanks for stopping by! Linda
Hi Linda. I’ve seen these kids in green, but never white. I like the white ones better! Hope your eye heals quickly and wishing you an uneventful winter!
HI Laura, yeah I would like white ones better too! Thanks for wishing my eyes heal. This has been a bit of a rough year. My other eye will be operated on Nov. 6th. I had cataracts and they put lenses in one eye and the doctor had to put two stents in each eye to relieve my Glaucoma pressure. I am seeing double so it’s really hard to type but I hope that improves. LOL! It’s hard to type with one eye. Thanks for commenting, you are so nice. Thank you, Linda
Hi Linda, these would be great to have. Love reading your news letters, I think it’s the only reason I check my emails every day, lol. Thanks for all the great recipes and tips you share, I have them saved in a folder for easy access.
Hi Lucie, you are so nice, you made my day! It’s people like you who keep me going. I really like those silicone lids. Thanks so much for commenting. Linda
These covers look great! Always looking for ways to keep smells inside their own bowls and am trying to get away from using so much plastic. Hope I win.
Hi Sandra, thanks so much for entering my giveaway. I’m trying to get away from plastic too! Linda
These look fantastic. So much better than plastic wrap! I have been printing all of your posts, reading them & saving them for help in an emergency. Thank you so much for your knowledge & sharing it.
Hi Lucinda, thanks for entering my giveaway. They are really nice stretchy lids. You made my day when you said you print all my posts! Linda
PLEASE ENTER ME FOR THE COVER DRAWING. GOING TO AMAZON NOW TO PUT ON MY WISH LIST
Hi Jerry, I will right now, thank you so much for entering. Linda
Sounds like a wonderful invention. I want to try these and maybe purchase more sets for Christmas gifts for my daughters.
Hi Deanna, thanks for entering my giveaway!! I love how they nestle inside each other. Good luck, Linda
What amazing timing! I ran out of plastic wrap tonight. As I was writing it on my shopping list I thought how nice it would be to have some bowl covers. I could save money on plastic wrap. I wish they made them in a rectangular shape too.
Thanks for the chance to win!
Hi Michelle, I was thinking the same thing. I would love a 9 by 13-inch size. The plastic wrap always slides off those larger pans. Thanks for entering. Linda
Thank you for reaching us about these handy covers. I now am sold on wanting them in my kitchen arsenal. I hope I win.
These look so great. I’m going to buy some for sure. thanks.
Hi Bernadine, I love them, thanks for entering my giveaway! Linda
I’m in my 50s and I remember my grandma used to have some bowl covers that were much like shower caps…plastic with elastic around the edge.
These bowl covers brought back that memory for me.
Hi Michelle, oh does that bring back memories. I remember wearing those caps too. You’ll love these silicone bowl covers if you win!! Thanks for entering. Linda
I have a set of these bowl covers and enjoy using them. However, I have yet to find an efficient way to store them when not in use. I’m currently keeping them nested in a plastic bag, but they stick to the bag and to each other, and when I go to grab one I have to take the entire nested arrangement out of the bag and find the one I want. Just wondering how other people deal with them.
Hi Naomi, darn, that’s not good. Try storing them in an open bowl without a cover. What about a piece of paper towel between them? Linda
