[@quinnfisher3704]

I think that Mini Brands Create is trying to be more realistic while Miniverse is trying to be more fun and whimsical, because the whole Mini Brands- Brand is realism. It is supposed to be real life sized things but small. Real grocery store ingredients don’t really have those fun sun whimsical colorful stuff

[@wandaXmaximoff]

I was thinking that too, especially as it’s all MasterChef branded, which is quite simple and elegant, instead of colourful and quirky.

[@AmitPatel-sx2zs]

@@wandaXmaximoff exactly.

[@FerrariFerrari-ep8jo]

I agree AND disagree ,because yes it should look realistic, but I feel like you should always have a little bit of color in your life when you think you shouldn’t

[@VoidWalkerOblivion]

The recall is actually super relevant here I think - like Jackie said, the more realistic Mini Brands is aiming to adults. People who can use resin safely. The whimsy of miniverse is very cute, but makes it very clear this is meant to be a toy for children. Mini Brands has at least the illusion of being age appropriate.

[@mialopez5133]

Hehe yeah especially because it’s MASTERCHEF, a name and brand like that is “fancier” so I’m glad the desserts do seem more boujee hehe and it’s cool there’s also step by step recipes!! But I also love how cute miniverse is too

[@User24078]

VID IDEA: all extra resin, groceries and other supplies from mini verse get mixed to create a franken-verse! love u jackie! 😍

[@BeantownMrs]

[@User24078]

ayyyye jackie saw my comment! tysm! ❤️

[@lana3392]

Collab with Safiya???

[@ddzgrlcollections8190]

I think part of the problem is that people are mistaking the “Zuru Mini Brands Create” for the “MGA MiniVerse Make It Mini food”! MGA MiniVerse actually has a warning that it’s NOT suitable for children under 3 and not suitable for kids under 8 while Zuru Mini Brands Create promotes that it’s for kids 3+ AND has some that comes SCENTED which encourages them to SNIFF the resin!!! So why is the “MiniVerse” being recalled, in my opinion it should have been the “Mini Beands Create”!

[@minnie7453]

I’m sure they will all be recalled, the recall doesn’t mention that it’s because it’s marketed to children, it’s a blanket statement that the resin itself is an overall irritant. If the others don’t get recalled that would be weird.

[@rachelhetrick4139]

It's because I ain't got nothing to do with it being child related. 26 people. Both adults and children have got a hold of miniverse and told them that they've had skin irritation and asthma attacks due to the resin. It won't actually completely take them off the shelf. They'll have to relabel things and make it noted that resin can be dangerous right on the packaging and the stuff that it can cause. So they'll just have to make it completely transparent, but it's not the age thing. It was that people of all ages got hurt.

[@princessheart9229]

​​​@@rachelhetrick4139If both of any ages are playing with resin, They should got gloves and a mask then.. If they inhale a fumes in, beforehand, They didn't do any of that, MGA Miniverses did have a warning and supposed to have adults super vision in stores and in the Description on Amazons While, The Mini band Create didn't have that or no warning

[@keylimetea]

No one is confusing them. Miniverse didn’t have big enough warnings at all. The resin is the issue. Not the people buying it (though I saw some people telling horror stories of children as young as 3 on Reddit being allowed to have miniverse and getting resin in the carpet)

[@ary16]

The recall isn’t because it’s resin, it’s because of 2 or 3 specific ingredients that are in the resin, which should not be handled by kids. They’re actually coming out with a new formula of resin without those ingredients, which is supposed to be more suitable for children, supposedly. So mini brand create could potentially already not have those ingredients so a recall would be unnecessary 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@LynKora]

My Husband and I enjoy these kits. We would recommend your channel to everyone who had their child asking for any of these kits. You actually explain things. I'm hoping now that they listened to us. My Husband thinks that someone blindly bought one for their child, without understanding what it was, and their child made it unsupervised and burned themselves because they didn't know to be careful. Which is very sad. I hope they are able to come back to stores...in the crafting section.

[@bluebellrose9511]

It is regrettable that we are losing an enjoyable activity due to the negligence of adults who fail to supervise children, resulting in their injuries.

[@keylimetea]

Not just kids got injured. Adults too

[@rethaf4387]

I think they would just have to re-market it with proper warning labels and age labels.

[@sha9392]

No mini verse was using resin that wasn’t for kids and they lied about their ingredients. It’s not always the parents please stop.

[@FateTheRaven]

Yes, the recall is active, my store had us go through and collect all the ones containing resin. If you did buy any, I believe there is a number you can call about it. I'm so glad they're finally doing something about this, though! I had parents wanting to buy it for their little ones, and I had to give them the brief run down of resin in my checkout lane just to make sure they stayed safe before this.

[@savvy5182]

So can u still get them if you’re an adult or are they being taken out of stores completely? Bc i really like these and wanna do more 😭

[@brandonaston301]

Its annoying because not all of the sets contain resin. The wave 1 bird feeders and the plants don’t contain resin. But unfortunately the whole set was recalled.

[@nerdycurls6253]

I don't understand why still, it's barely any resin it shouldn't be that much of an issue for the age group it was marketed for. People actually buy harmful stuff for their children all the time...

[@pissum420]

@@nerdycurls6253 The age group it was marketed at was young children hence the recall to begin with. When you advertise something to young kids when it’s unsafe it’s going to be recalled

[@sadsprt-501]

They'll be back so I wouldn't worry the brand prolly will jus have to make warnings bigger and they claim the resin is a new formula (that doesn't change a thing tho bc no such thing as non toxic resin but yk) im hoping they'll take it out of the toy aisle and pivot to crafts + craft stores especially since there aware it's popular w/adults (they're making a happy hour set) ​@savvy5182

[@yelljal2764]

Don't worry! The new miniverse seties slated to come out this summer/fall all have a new formula resin and will be available to purchase. There are a bunch of new series including a new cafe, diner, and lifestyle, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Beetlejuice, siracha, and a Hershey's set, along with others.

[@yelljal2764]

FYI, the mini brands UV light has a very short lifespan and dies not long after making the project. Unfortunately you can not replace the batteries, so it really is a waste of plastic.

[@KristenZianourry2015]

Huge waste, not only that but the UV lamp is unpractical according to the directions you have to hold it above your project for 5 to 10 minutes and tell me who wants to do that 🤔 I personally really like the mini verse kitchen because the oven that has the UV light is really good in my opinion

[@princessheart9229]

Ikr I feel like MasterChef is being wasteful on putting every single chef hats in the every single balls

[@kendelleking8337]

Honestly the whole thing is a big waste of plastic. If miniverse did a set of 5 projects, or had a big set of ingredients to make your own plates of food I could get behind it, but the random mystery element, the chase for an "ultra rare" is purely there to drive up sales. Most of these will be in landfill within a year because only a few people buying these have an interest in actually getting into resin as a hobby and can use/properly dispose of the waste. I only watch these for Jackie's commentary but really can't wait til her new studio space is set up and she can have space to do her own projects again.

[@lilbit1535]

I have been *WAITING* for someone to put these projects in a head-to-head 'contest'. Thank you!!

[@runtlps2712]

Hellooo nerdEcrafter so a little story time. My cousin is 11 she bought the miniverse and was doing it. I was over at her house and said "don't get to close to the resin it has a really strong smell." She didn't believe me and she was literally right above the resin she started feeling sick with a bad headache I felt so bad but I tried to warn her :/

[@meaghan9984]

Someone in a canadian fb miniverse group reached out to the company about the recall!! They said it was fue to the resin not being safe ("irritation" was the reason quoted) BUT have allegedly made a new resin that doesn't "contain the irritant"???? Which I don't think is possible, to have a "safe" resin!! Happy to send along the screenshots if wanted!

[@yelljal2764]

I think it's a specific ingredient they took out. Still resin isn't "safe" and definitely isn't meant for children, u just think the new formula is "safer"

[@Nirrrina]

Interesting. I was just thinking maybe they could change it to some kind of a nontoxic glue that dries fairly fast. Although honestly I like the resin ones. But I do agree they aren't for kids. Although depending on the kids maturity to follow safety directions I might just do it with them while using proper ppe. I'd probably do the resin part though.

[@maqaroon]

I agree with this. The best scenario would be that they're using the wrong word and the new kits contain some type of water based glue. If the new formula still involves UV resin then there's no chance that is fully safe. A middle ground would be a 2-part silicone which you mix yourself, similar to Jellirez or Rainbow Jellies. That's still not skin safe but better than resin.

[@psychotophatcat]

It's a single ingredient that was flagged by health codes somewhere, they're basically just changing that ingredient. Of course, I read this on Instagram or Reddit, and can't find the comment now, but they did mention a specific term/chemical.

[@_lynnmariee]

@@maqaroonoh wasn’t expecting to see you here ! i just watched your short about the recall !

[@NoodleHausColubrids]

I got the ultra rare as a gift and while watching the intro to this video I went and checked it. Despite me curing it for the full 5 minutes with the light, the center was still liquid and pressing down on the top separated the cured resin from the edge, allowing the uncured resin to seep out. I had always kind of suspected these kits would be problematic. UV resin needs full exposure to cure, and a lot of these kits have opaque items added to the resin, or layered with it in a way that makes it impossible to fully cure.

[@roowyrm9576]

When making kits with opaque resin the best way is to build and cure in thin layers, that way it is cured all the way through. Also, an extra powerful uv torch helps.

[@quinny3032]

@@roowyrm9576 or just leave it sit outside for an hour or 2 for full cure

[@84mobstar]

​@@roowyrm9576yes! I have had no issues building in layers.. I prefer it because I control where the resin goes and use much less of it in the process.

[@timbobshe]

lol the recall is hilarious, they've been going for what 2 years and no one thought it was resin? XD hopefully they'll put an age restriction on them so they can still be around. I love them but don't have them. perfect for dolls houses!

[@princessheart9229]

Ikr, My dolls love to enjoy my resin craft projects that I made ❤ It sucks for some kids have respiratory system and Allergic reactions to it but, Keep buying them and doesn't care about Adult supervision is recommended 😢

[@princessheart9229]

And I agree with you about the age limit, They should do 18+ because, Some kids doesn't care for harmful chemicals in their lungs

[@manen2391]

@@princessheart9229 it wasn’t just kids getting hurt though, it’s just adults who don’t read warnings or instructions, the miniverse always had not safe and not for children on under 8 on their label, mini brands was marketing for 3 up, the issue is that any art media could cause irritant or asthma when used incorrectly chalk comes to mind, but also slime, they see something that they think is for children and think it’s nontoxic and safe

[@nekopaints8842]

In germany we called this cake "Schwarzwälder Kirsch torte"🥰 and i love it

[@cecileomnes586]

it's funny because the mini brad are supposed to be more "elegant", but to me they look more of a low quality copy... Sure the projects are cute, but packaging for items are more lazy, you end up with 50 lamps you'll never use, and I HATE the fact the list doesn't show pictures of the projects, but drawings of the project. It's sad because the projects are actually cute

[@indrahx5905]

I agree, but the results are surprisingly nice; actually there're more detailed. Look at the black forest cake or the pie crust, they did look better than Mini Brands. But yes, everything around it is disappointing and bland.

[@cecileomnes586]

@@indrahx5905 yeah to be honest i'd like no lamp, and more detailled packaging, because let's face it, lot of us totally enjoy the tiny stuff you can keep on top of the project XD

[@Dragoniangirl]

I was just about to comment about ending up with multiple lights if you buy more than one kit. It's a nice thought but feels like such a waste.

[@sarahl2481]

don't forget that the Zuru Masterchef Create have QR codes to the real recipes these minis are based off of!!! Yum!!! (hence why the chocolate mousse is vegan)

[@MyrnNecromanson]

Mini brands feels way less like it's aggressively for kids than miniverse in packaging. However the fact that is is so "adult" allure makes it seem like it's the one ACTUALLY trying hardest to attract little kids

[@Leena79]

I prefer the Miniverse visuals, because that silly sun is so cute, and I'm not a serious chef. The Blackforest cake is called Schwartzwald cake here in Finland, because the area in Germany where it originates from is called Schwartzwald - or, Black forest in English.

[@beautiesfoodies8790]

I love that both you and Hopescope talk about each other's videos😊

[@calliehigley6608]

I'm so sad they were recalled! I do agree, they aren't for kids, but could they just rebrand for adults? My special interest is mini things and I adored miniverse!! Only part I wasn't a fan of is the mystery, I wanna know what I getting

My favorite part of this whole video is when you saw the apple slices and was like EVERYTHING STOP lol. I would've reacted the same way lol

[@aynfarika]

One of the other KZbinrs I follow MyFroggyStuff uses modge podge instead of the resin to make these kits she just mixes acryilc paint or washable marker into the Modge Podge (for a clear tint) to make the "sauces" etc etc.

[@sarahvernon5403]

I liked both! I find that the mini brands one was easier to open and i like the realistic look to them! I also like that they give a uv light! I know ive seen other KZbin crafters complain about the waste of getting the chef hats in every kit and that they only last for 2 hrs, but what they dont take into consideration is that the average kid/adult who buys these are not likely going to buy more then maybe 2 at most since they aren't cheap! For someone who is new to resin and craft projects, id hate to buy a kit and then have to buy a uv light, especially if i end up not enjoying the project! Then id be stuck with a uv light i have no use for!

[@bbmeltdown2665]

I think the scented resin is for when it's hardened and safer to sniff??? Maybe??

[@okay9953]

Honestly I'm not mad at the mini brands. Yes they did take inspiration from mini verse but I like how realistic the packaging is

[@vulpixle9659]

Okok I looked it up! It is just the older kits (before May 31, 2024) where their resin formula may cause irritation to skin (which is normal with resin lol). Their lifestyle kits and spa kits are still on the market and their next kits will have a different formula (and will update the older kits as well).

[@DigiFoxDemon]

I've bought both myself, with miniverse i love the amount of different foods that you can get (i know they have been out longer so more options) I love that they look cartoony they look fun and they fit in with my doll house display. The mini brands ones are more real and seem to be aimed more at adult crafters. I think the lack of whimsy might be part of the masterchief brand deal rather than a lack of trying.

FYI in germany 'black forest cake' (Schwarzwälder Torte) actually refers to that specific type of cake. The cake layers are (as far as I know) usually sponge cake with cocoa powder and cherry liquor in it (the liquor is just for taste and can be left out if you want it to be alcohol free)

[@TheLionNamedLeo]

German American here...in German it's called Eschte schwartzwalde Kirsch torte aka black forest cake or black forest cherry cake! Fun fact: if there's no alcohol in the cake in Germany it's not considered a black forest cake! It's basically illegal to sell the cake in Germany without the alcohol..which has to be what the cherries are soaked in for 24 hrs, there's also a lil in the whipped cream and also in the layers to give it that moist texture! Cause if there isn't it's really dry and gross!

10:06 Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (torte means cake, meanwhile Kuchen can also be cake, but is more similar to the English word pie. Torte means to have a layered cake with mostly cream inbetween the layers, while Kuchen is mostly 1 piece often even without any topings)

[@tianamannion5156]

I did the strawberry shortcake one a few days ago it’s so cute

[@rethaf4387]

Which do I prefer? From all the vids I saw, they both have quite realistic food. In a side-by side comparison of the same things, mini brands cakes, for example, takes the realism slightly further. I think paying for a bunch of lights while you only need one (arguably zero outside of Canada) is a bit of a waste, but technically mini brands does give something extra there. The fun and whimsy factor on Miniverse packaging is way higher: 100% whimsy, 100% cuteness, etc. And even adults who make toy minis appreciate whimsy! I've seen complaints that Miniverse have too little resin, I never saw this complaint of mini brands. Still, I'd be super happy if I ever got either. (My country on the Southern side of Africa don't import this kind of stuff, though.)

These Mini Brands kits are a collaboration with Master Chef and so the items match other Master Chef items (which are aimed at children) who enjoy the show where children cook like professional chefs. They also sell cookware sets, etc. for children learning to cook at a higher level.

I'm not sure if the two are enough alike in idea to really be a problem, but I'm also not a lawyer. In my opinion, there's loads of different mini crafts, or even other random products that are basically mirrored versions of each other. It's basically like saying: "Hey, I made mystery boxes first, so now nobody can do the same." There's only so many things one can do before something is similar to something else, or maybe even inspired from another thing. As someone mentioned, one is more cartoony, the other more realistic. I myself like the cartoony styled one simply because I could fail less, and more likely to make it look cute rather than real. So there is a difference in what's being offered, and each person will have a preference to one, none or both.
