Bread and Donut Squishy Toys

A set of soft foam shapes moulded and printed to look like toast, bread rolls and iced donuts. Squeeze one flat and it holds the dent for a moment before creeping slowly back to its original shape, which is the whole appeal. The slow return is oddly satisfying and gives hands something repetitive to do while you think.

Each piece is made from a light, springy foam with a smooth outer skin and a printed surface that mimics crust, glaze and sprinkles. They are light enough to toss between hands and firm enough to keep their shape on a shelf. Keep them away from sharp edges, since the outer skin is what protects the foam, and wipe marks off with a slightly damp cloth. Nothing needs batteries, charging or assembly at any point, which is part of why a set like this ends up shared around a household.

These slow rising squishy toys sit on a desk, a bedside table or a bookshelf as much as they get carried in a bag. A simulation bread squishy toy makes an easy small gift, a party bag filler or a swap between friends. As a stress relief toy for desk work they suit students, older children and adults who fidget while reading or on calls.
