Portochef by Umbra

6 people recommended this item

Description

I like to collect recipes from magazines or print them out from sites like allrecipes.com and Food Network. This special stand allows me to put the recipe I'm working on in display instead of having to try and prop my 3-ring binder open.

This handy page-flip recipe stand means you can easily keep all your loose recipe pages protected and organized and super easy to read. When not in use this stand folds down like a binder, and can slip into a shelf.

Cookie Press

9 people recommended this item

Description

Tired of dealing with cookie dough all over the place? This cookie press allows you to drop the cookies on a pan mess-free. The extra-large barrel holds enough dough for three-dozen large cookies or crackers, so there’s no need to refill it in the middle of a batch.

Cupcakes: From the Cake Mix Doctor

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

If you're crazy about cupcakes and want to eat them all the time instead of having to wait until the Sprinkles line dies down, this is the book for you. I love "The Cupcakes with Class" chapter which offers tasty recipes, from Cappuccino Chip to Harvey Wallbanger (which contains vodka and liqueur).

Slice Solutions 11-by-7-Inch Precut Brownie Pan Set

First to recommend

Description

I dunno about you but I hate cutting brownies with a knife cuz then my knife tears up my brownie pieces. But with this pan set, you can just put the divider in after you pour the batter and then when you pull it out of the oven, your brownies are ready to go. (via OutBlush)

Digital Oil & Candy Thermometer

First to recommend

Description

Looking for the perfect candy thermometer to make my fleur de sel caramels and with a clear digital readout and the ability to be used for deep-frying, too, this one looks to fit the bill.

It can be set for a specific sugar temperature (such as "hard crack" when making candy) or food choice (such as "chicken" when deep-frying). Once the desired temperature is reached, the unit flashes and beeps.

Salt Fleur De Sel 125 g

First to recommend

Description

I have this fleur de sel caramel recipe that I'm dying to try out and sure enough Surfas in Culver City carries the gourmet sea salt.

The connoisseur's choice for sea salts, Fleur de Sel salt crystals are harvested from the Camargue region near Provence. Sprinkle over foods just before serving.

KitchenAid Artisan Martha Stewart Blue Collection Stand Mixer

2 people recommended this item

Description

This color is called Martha Stewart Collection's signature blue but to me it's more like a Tiffany Blue! So pretty! It has a unique tilting head to facilitate bowl and content removal.

OXO Mango Pitter

First to recommend

Description

Mango is one of my favorite fruits ever but such a bitch to prepare to eat what with that huge odd-shaped pit. This handy tool cuts the mango to the center and frees that pit. Yay! just in time for summer.
