TINY little cups, but you can make egg bites to rival Starbucks
I am a Starbucks egg bites lover, and I've never been able to duplicate the soft, creamy recipe at home using my Instant Pot or oven. I wanted to give this product a try since supposedly "sous vide" is what gives that texture!Overall, this product is great. It comes with some recipes, but I found I had to tweak them a little to get the consistency and taste I was looking for, but I think I got it! I can now make them to taste almost identical to Starbucks, with that same consistency (tips at the end of this review if that's what you're looking for too).It comes with a larger silicone cup and 4 minis. The minis are SMALL...much smaller than I expected. Because of that, if you are using 4 eggs like their recipes call for, you will be making quite a few batches. But no big deal. There is no on/off switch on this. You plug it in, and it's on.The one thing I wish it had was an easier way to take the hot silicone cups out when they are finished. I don't want to leave them on the cooker while it cools off, as it will just make the eggs cook more, so I needed to pinch the tiny handles to pick them up. It's hot! Other than that, I really like this little machine. I used cooking spray in the cups as suggested, and the egg bites fell right out with ease. So far I have not used it for anything besides egg bites, but the instruction manual that comes with it gives other suggestions, like cheesecake. They would be TINY Cheesecake bites if you use the small cups!If you are looking for the consistency and taste of Starbucks egg bites, here's what I did to get it:- I TRIPLED the amount of cottage cheese suggested in their recipe book.- I didn't cook them as long as suggested. I pre-heated the machine and maybe cooked them for 5-6 minutes, instead of 10 minutes. (The machine directions say that if you pre-heat, it cuts down on your cooking time, but it doesn't say by how much, so it's a guessing game of trial and error)Overall, a great little machine that is small enough that it doesn't take up much room in my already cramped kitchen and allows me to save money by not going to Starbucks as often!

Damaged and very badly packed
This product was very badly packed and had obviously been thrown around in transit, rattling around inside a much bigger box. This had ended up with the machine having 3 major splits to the lid. It would be unsafe to use.

Home Made Starbucks Egg Bites
I was spending way too much money on Starbucks Egg Bites so my bf got me this and it is amazing. Only tried it once so far but it is so easy to make and has the exact same texture as the Starbucks egg bites. You can play around with what flavour you want and it also looks very cute, highly recommend.

Very useful option for eggs
Very useful.Instead of boiled scrambled or omelette, this is a great option to have.I am making egg patties for sandwiches.I am using my own judgment on how much I want the eggs to be cooked and not relying on the device itself.

Not what I was expected
It’s too small: I wish it could fit 1 egg per cup, instead, it only fits half. That way, if you make 4 portions you only get 2 eggs.Another issue: it’s good for single people. If you are going to eat with somebody else it takes almost 10 minutes to get ready, so when the second portion is ready, the first is already cold.And it doesn’t taste like Starbucks egg bites: if you leave the recommended time it gets drier and not smooth like the ones at Starbucks.I bought it on sale and I don’t recommend it in full price. Specially if you are not single.
