Have fun with melted chocolate

Have fun with melted chocolate

Ah, fondue. Before you get start thinking about cheesy ’70s fondues, let us remind you that the good old fondue can also be used for delightful melted chocolate.

What better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day then to enjoy some melted chocolate with your partner.

This Kitchen Craft fondue set is made from enameled cast iron and comes with six colour coded fondue forks. Serve it with fresh fruit, like strawberries, melon or grapes, or squishy marshmallows, and get dipping!

The fondue set is available on Amazon, where you can also stock up on supplies of fondue chocolate.

Prestige art deco toaster

Art deco hoops design

Meyer Prestige have gone for the art deco look with their new range of kitchen electrical gadgets.

The two slice toaster, with its variable size slots for different bread items (e.g. toast, bagels or crumpets), has the attractive art deco inspired hoops design on the side. It’s subtle enough not to be too art deco like, but does help jazz up an item that could otherwise be a bit boring!

Find the toaster at Amazon for £44.99.

Clever walnut key nut cracker

Monday, November 30th, 2009
Turn the key - and open the walnut

Turn the key - and open the walnut

Cracking open the shells of nuts is something I always associate with Christmas, but I’ve recently discovered that our nutcrackers have mysteriously broken.

Walnuts are often tricky to open with conventional nutcrackers, due to their bulky size, soI love the idea of this walnut key.

The key is designed to cleverly slot into the groove on the top of the walnut shell and allows you to ‘unlock’ and open it up. It looks easy to use and less cumbersome then traditional nutcrackers.

The walnut key is available from Cox and Cox for £6.
