Condiment Gun – Serve Ketchup & Mustard In Style!
January 26, 2010
Who doesn’t like a splat of sauce on their burgers, chips or in my case pretty much everything I eat. So if this sounds like you then add a little fun into smothering your food in sauce by getting yourself a Condiment Gun to use with your tomato ketchup and mustard.
The gun is aptly colour schemed in a bright red and yellow similar to ketchup and mustard I guess. The device is simple to use, just fill the cartridges with your favourite sauces and load them into the barrel on the gun. The trigger then sends the sauce through the nozzle on the cartridge which sticks out from the end of the barrel.

January 23, 2010
I think at some point everybody has wandered into the kitchen and thought ‘hmm, I don’t like these mugs anymore if only I had a (ceramic) Paper Cup…but one that I didn’t have to throw away’. Well maybe not but that’s exactly what this is. It even has the little sippy silicone lid that has become so iconic from take away coffee shops.
Suitable for dishwashers and totally renewable its good for environment as well as being useful. The silicon lid conceals the heat so you’re cuppa doesn’t go cold in a matter of minutes. It is a simple, plain, white porcelain mug that looks identical to a paper cup. What a quirky, but novel idea!

January 20, 2010
Now here’s an interestingly brutal contraption, it’s only a Voodoo Knife Block! For those of you who are dark and perhaps a little twisted, you can have a savagely assaulted man standing in your kitchen doing the vital job of holding your knives.
The Voodoo knife block is aptly named. It is basically a typical knife block in which you can keep your sharp knives so you don’t have to dangerously leave them lying around the place. It is neatly crafted into the shape of a leaning bald person (I can’t assume it’s a man but it’s most likely).

January 17, 2010
For those of you who enjoy a good peanut butter sandwich, look no further than the Peanut Butter Maker. The extremely imaginatively named device uses only peanuts, no added oils, fats etc. needed, only nuts to create perfect warm peanut butter every time.
There are two different options which really don’t take a lot of working out. A small dial will direct you to whether you would like chunky, or smooth peanut butter depending on how you like it.

January 8, 2010
Ok so this Chain Wine Bottle Holder may seem kind of a pointless gadget…apart from the fact it will probably amaze everyone who sees it…at least for a short time until they decide to take the wine and have a drink.
Basically, the seemingly average nickel plated chain holds any bottle of wine aloft as if by magic. Looking at the images I’m still not sure I fully understand how this thing works, but apparently it does.

January 4, 2010
Not too long ago you could buy a Slushie drink in almost every general store or fair/festival you entered. Nowadays we are forced to reminisce about the days we could do such things. Until now. The Slushie Maker let’s you create your very own cool ice drinks in all of your favourite fruity flavours.
It’s absolutely idiot proof. You can put any type of drink in there even tea or coffee, but I recommend you stick to fruit juice. Just pack the machine with ice and add a pinch of salt (I am assured that you can’t taste it) as well as a splash of liquid; switch it on and boom you have a Slushie drink.

June 25, 2009
What is it?
You won’t Adam and Eve it. Its only a bloomin ball that makes ice cream. Mental note to self, turn Eastenders off before starting a review. So without the southern twang, the Ice Cream Ball is an innovative way of turning cream and sugar into your very own, Ben and Jerry’s beating, ice cream. What makes this little kitchen gadget even better is that it does all this without the need to plug it in.
BarbeSkew II – Rotating BBQ
June 11, 2009
What is it?
Since the dawn of time all men have cooked raw meat over an open flame and we cant explain why we love doing it. We have also, by default, all burnt our meat into unrecognisable charred lumps, with a pink gooey centre. This was all done in an effort to get that unbeatable flame grilled taste, which as you will know, is difficult to master… until now. Step up the BarbeSkew II (the new cheaper version of the original BarbeSkew, as seen on Dragons Den). It is essentially a new take on a BBQ that constantly rotates your chosen meat, instead of leaving it static on a grill. It does not sound like a massive evolutionary step, but the best ideas are always the most simple. You lance your chosen cuts of animal onto the 7 small skewers then slip them into the groves provided over the charcoal. They then slowly rotate, allowing the meat to receive a 360 degree view of the fire below. You also get 2 cage skewers enabling you to still cook the BBQ classics, sausages and burgers that also benefit from the same 360 degree cooking experience.
Rubik’s Cube Salt And Pepper Shakers
April 28, 2009
What is it?
This is the best novelty salt and pepper shakers we have ever seen (not that we spend hours looking for them though). Based on the eighties classic icon, the Rubik’s Cube, this pair of table condiments will make anyone over the age of 15 smile. Measuring in at 5.7 cm2 they are the same size as the original making them not imposing enough to be impractical. The stylish plastic outer casing houses a durable ceramic grinder like in most mills.
Garlic Zoom
April 12, 2009
What is it?
The Garlic Zoom is as you can probably guess, a new kitchen gadget that allows you to chop garlic with ease. You simply pop the cloves of garlic required into the little bladed contraption then push it along your work surface. The wheels drive the internal blades that slice and dice the little stinking cloves. Simply tap the garlic out when it has reached your required consistency and add it to your chosen cuisine.
