We did this at my "focused training" meeting the other day. We started with a product (pizza stone), and tried not to duplicate.... but went around the room telling what product that product would lead us to cross sell.

For instance:

Me: Pizza stone

Next person: Pizza Stone..... I would then describe the *woven* baskets ~ how the round one makes a "dark" seasoned stone look so much more presentable.

Next person: Round woven..... I would tell how the *rectangular baker* can be put into a woven too.

etc. etc.

Want to play? Next person start with *rectangular baker* and how you would go into a cross sell. :)
 
The rectangular baker is perfect for making brownies without rock-hard edges and the best way to get that first ultra-perfect brownie out of the baker it to use our mini serving spatula.

And you can decorate those brownies with cool whip accents applied with our Easy Accent Decorator.
 
...makes great tuxedo brownies in our mini muffin pan using the mini tart shaper
 
Our Easy Accent Decorator is great for filling devilled eggs prettily and placing them in our Chillzanne Rectangular Server.
 
Our Chillzanne Rectangle Server is so versatile and can be used with our Farmer's Market Dips & Veggies or you can make this great Hawaiian Fruit Dip from our All the Best Cookbook!

All the Best is my favorite cookbook! You willl really love the time our *Ultimate Slice & Grate* will save you when slicing tomatoes for the Greek Island Pastry shown on page 10. :)
 
The US&G can fit over the Batter bowl and slice the food right into the bowl!

~ this is fun!
 
Since I'm bored I'll throw another one out there... when mixing something in the Batter Bowl our family of scrapers does the job perfectly and will last a lifetime!
 
Our scrapers are the best on the market. The handle and head are FUSED together so they'll never come apart. PLUS, they're heat resistant to 600F, so you can safely use them in ANY of our beautiful cookware.
 
Our cookware is so amazing. The nonstick qualities are awesome. In order to keep that nonstick coating at its best, please don't use your metal utensils, but rather any of our nylon tools that are designed specially for the nonstick cookware!
 
My favorite nylon tool is the nylon slotted server which you need to pair with the 4pc colander and bowl set for spaghetti that won't fall through the holes and down the drain! It also has the smaller bowl which is my family's salad size, perfect for washing off cut lettuce and shaking off the water by inverting on the bowl.
 
A fresh salad is delicious and easy with homemade salad dressing made right in the user-friendly Measure, Mix and Pour. Top with freshly grated cheese using the Deluxe Cheese Grater.
 
Our Cheese Grater is FANTASTIC, but for an ultra fine grated Parm like out of the can, use the Microplane grater! You can shower your food with delicious, fresh Parmesan instead of buying the stuff in the can. You'll get a much better flavor with half the preservatives. Use can also use it for chocolate, lemon zest, & nuts.

Wow, now that's a wonderful line!!

This is great, I'm not going to chime in right now (too early for my brain to REALLY function) but wanted to compliment you all on your fantastic "word pictures". Keep it up!

Also, children love to help grate cheese. I buy parm in 2 pound blocks and my 13 year son old loves to help me grate it so we can put it in the freezer and have it all the time. We make a game of it to see who can grate faster. Me with the cheese grater and fine barrell or him with the microplane. He wins every time
 
The Microplane Adjustable Grater is perfect for very fine additions of chocolate and zest, but if you want pretty chocolate curls and ribbons of zest to add to your dish, use the Vegetable Peeler on a chocolate bar and the Lemon Zester/Scorer on any piece of citrus.
 
The zester is great! With it you can the flavor to whatever you want with out changing the consistancy of your food. Plain old cake mix becomes a sweet, tart lemon cake in a flash with hardly any work at all! But the zester's just NOT going to help you juice that lemon! No matter what. So let me recommend our Citrus Press. It's made like our Garlic Press, but bigger. So, it's easy to use and WOW what a punch of power does it deliver! With a small squeeze it turns the fruit inside out and presses all the juice out!


Can you tell I'm loving this game!
 
THis is fun!:)
You can squeeze all the juice out of your lemons right into our Family Sized Quick Stir Pitcher, add some water, sugar, and a can of strawberry daquiri mix-and you've got some yummy strawberry lemonade!
Oh, & if you'd like to get the pitcher for 60% off, host a show in July;)
 
Another yummy summer recipe you can mix up with the Family Quik-Stir Pitcher is the Dreamsicle. Just a 2 liter bottle of orange pop (soda) and a 1/2 gallon of ice cream and a few plunges in the pitcher - mmmmmm. And to make getting that ice cream into the pitcher ultra easy, try out Ice Cream Scoop. The de-icer in the handle melts the scoop right through the hardest ice cream.
 
If you love the ice cream dipper then the Ice cream sandwich maker is a must have. All you need is some ice cream and some cookies, to make these neat little treats. I do recomend using your rectangle stone for the best cookies ever.




This game is too cute!!
 
When you make the cookies on your rectangle stone be sure to use the medium scoop since the cookies fit perfectly in the ice cream sandwhich maker
 
The Scoops are the best -- Medium Scoop for cookies and the Small Scoop for Profiterole Puffs in the Deluxe Mini-Muffin Pan!!

Beth in PA
 
I wanna play!

Our scoops come in three sizes... Of course, if I'm making cookies, my scoop would be the large one! Just kidding! Now, I have to tell you that I make a family recipe for meatballs and I mix them in a ziploc bag, scoop them out with the medium scoop onto the the large bar pan to bake and clean up is a breeze!
 
Ooopsss. I took too long to think! The mini muffin pan is wonderful, but so is the 6 muffin pan from our stoneware line. And, yes, all the hype about our stoneware is true!

Could you describe or have a receipe for those Tuxedo Brownies I would like to see those!@@:p

OT: Am I putting the fruit in the press upside down? I put the half lemon in with the press, pressing into the flesh. Should I put the skin side of the lemon towards the press to turn it inside out?

When making my super fabulous Bran muffins in the 6-cup muffin pan, I mix the batter in the large bowl of our stainless steel bowl set that feature, silocone bottoms and a comfortable plastic ring in the thumb hold, so as not to decapitate your thumb!
 
If you host a show, you can earn those Stainless Steel Bowl for half-price.

You can even take advantage of special "Host Only" combos, which include the Bowl and our collection of Stainless Steel Whisks as a set and get all of them for half-price. You will love our whisks. Especially if you make your own whipped cream or if you make meringue, you have to have our Double Balloon Whisk.

The mini whisk is perfect for small mixing jobs right in a prep bowl. I've done egg whites for brushing, mixing up a small amount of melted butter...
 
When you are using a small amount of anything, put it into one of our great prep bowls that come in a set of 6. You can bake, microwave, freeze or dishwash these little kitchen wonders!

These prep bowls come in a set of 6. Like all of our bowls they have measurements on the side. You can even bake in them just like our batter bowls which come in 2 different sizes.
