It might seem like a humble tool, but the squeeze bottle is a total game-changer in kitchens big and small. Whether you’re dressing a salad, drizzling chocolate, or adding that perfect swirl of ketchup to your burger, squeeze bottles make it all easier—and way less messy.
Used by chefs, baristas, bakers, and meal preppers alike, these bottles are all about control, convenience, and cleanliness. Trust us—you’ll want more than one.
What Is a Squeeze Bottle?
A squeeze bottle is a reusable, soft-sided bottle (usually plastic) with a small nozzle for dispensing liquids or semi-liquids. Designed to be squeezed by hand, it gives you total control over how much product comes out—making it ideal for sauces, oils, condiments, and even craft supplies.
