RollerMaster Rolling Pin

I was excited to try out this RollerMaster stainless steel rolling pin. I love that it is non stick. I also really like that you can throw it in your freezer to keep cool. Putting the rolling pin in the freezer will be great when I make sugar cookies that I have to put in the fridge first. This is a light weight rolling pin, it is hollow. I have a couple other rolling pins, one that is make of marble or marble like stone and a wood one. I like this one better than my wood pin, I like that it's easy to clean. I think I would like this more if it was a little heavier, but it will work okay for some of the lighter dough I use. Overall I didn't have much problem with the dough sticking. It stuck a little bit, and I am a creature of habit so I used flour. This item is dishwasher safe and very easy to clean up. The pin seems well made, I think I will get a lot of use out of this rolling pin. I received this item in exchange for my honest review.

Fuzion Cookware Flavor Injectors

These Fuzion Cookware Flavor Injectors are such a great idea. I will be these to make some adult cupcakes. I am thinking of making vanilla cupcakes and filling the injectors with dark rum. They I have tested the injectors and they very were easy to fill up, and looked great. I look forward and to trying this out with some other projects. Reasonable price for the amount your receive. These would be great for parties and special occasions. I received this item in exchange for my honest, unbiased review.

MJBAKERS Mini Muffin Pan- 24 Cups

MJBAKERS Mini Muffin Pan- 24 Cups 

I was really excited about this mini muffin pan but was disappointed. I was excited about not having to use any cooking spray. They are advertised as non stick so I decided to put them to the test. I made a batch of brownie bites.  I chose to make the fudge style brownies as opposed to the cake style. I did not spray the pan with Pam or any other type of spray, and I ended up more with brownie bite tops rather than brownie bites. At first I thought maybe the brownies were too warm when I first tried to pop them out.  I waited until they cooled off and still had the same  problem with the bottoms sticking. They may work better with something not quite as moist, but either way I was disappointed. Next time I use them I'll use some Pam or liners. Also want to note because these are silicone they are hard to hold when filled, best to put a cookie sheet to transport. I received this item in exchange for my honest review.

Ultra Fine Mesh Stainless Steel Strainer and Nut Bag

Ultra Fine Mesh 8" Stainless Steel Strainer and Nut Bag

This is a very nice  ultra fine mesh strainer, that comes with a Nut Milk bag as well. The strainer is stainless steel with a nice long handle that is heat resistant. It has superfine mesh which means less food waste. I'll be using this mostly for draining pasta and sifting flower. I may give a try making soy milk with the nut milk bag, I love fresh soy milk. This is a nice quality product. I received this product in exchange for my honest review.

Silicone Baking Set

Silicone Baking Set 

 This set by Bonjour Cusine include two silicone baking sheets and a small spatula. This is the first time I have used baking mats, and I was surprised how much I like them. They didn't cover my cooking sheet completely, I improvised and
just used the area that the mat covered. I tried the mat with cookies. I did not have any problems with the cookies sticking to the sheet nor had any problems with scorching. The mat was easy to clean up with soap and water and I let it air dry. I really like the ease of clean up. Small spatula is made of silicone as well, great for not scratching up your pans. I recommend this set to anyone who does not like "extra" clean up. No oil or grease needed to prevent nonstick. I received this item in exchange for my honest review.
