Mini Mat
A one-piece 100% food-grade silicone plate-plus-placemat with a self-sealing suction base built into the same molded part - no separate ring, no plastic.
Plastic-free verdict: Silicone only
The entire product is a single molded piece of 100% food-grade silicone - the divided plate, the surrounding placemat, and the self-sealing suction base are all the same part, so there is no plastic and no separate hardware. That one-piece design is its main advantage over hybrid plates: the suction is the mat itself rather than an add-on ring, and there's nothing to disassemble or lose. Silicone-only by definition; for a truly silicone-free plate you'd step down to a plain stainless or bamboo dish.

What it's made of
| Part | Material | Food contact |
|---|---|---|
| plate + placemat + suction base (one piece) single molded piece of 100% food-grade silicone; BPA/BPS/PVC/phthalate/latex-free; self-sealing suction is the mat itself | Silicone | Yes |
A baby-led-weaning staple: a divided three-compartment plate fused into a full silicone placemat, all molded as one piece. The whole underside grips a highchair tray or table, and because the suction is the mat and not a removable ring, a toddler can't pry it loose by pulling on the plate. It's dishwasher, microwave, and oven safe (unlike stainless dishware, which can't microwave), and folds up for travel. The tradeoff versus steel or bamboo is simply that it is 100% silicone rather than a natural material.
Pros
- One piece of 100% food-grade silicone - no plastic, no separate parts to lose
- Self-sealing suction can't be pulled up by the plate; hard for toddlers to flip
- Microwave, oven, and dishwasher safe (steel plates can't microwave)
- Doubles as its own placemat; folds for travel
Cons
- All silicone, not a natural material - not for zero-silicone purists
- Silicone can retain grease/odor and attract lint over time
- Suction needs a smooth, clean surface to hold well
- Deep pigments in some colors are dye, though ezpz uses food-safe colorants
Notes
- Mini Mat is 6-12m+ with smaller portions; the larger Happy Mat is the same one-piece silicone design for older toddlers
- For a plastic- AND silicone-free plate, a stainless or solid-bamboo dish is the alternative
