This maybe early since conference is still 3 months away but I've been excited to go back ever since going last year! Wanted to see what everyone is looking forward to seeing from the new products this year.

I want:
More stones with handles (rectangle stone, medium round stone)
cookbook stand
small forged santuko (like the size of the color coated knife)

I know that there is more on my list, just cannot think of them right now!
 
The small forged Santoku has been on my list since the green one was introduced!

I'd like different covers for stoneware ( we had them before, but they were discontinued)
Accessory pieces for SA - like a butter dish, salt & pepper shakers, cream & suger bowls......

And, this isn't a product - but I'd like a revamped fundraiser Program too.

Oh! Pretty please!!

I would like to see:
Forged tomato knife
Pineapple corer
Holder for our forged knives
1 qt. quick stir pitcher (my son asked for that to make formula in)
Almond seasoning
 
I want the cherry/olive pitter back!
 
I would like a 6 qt. executive pan, spice holder, forged cutlery knife holder, lids for the stoneware, cake tester (many want this back), vanilla deep covered baker

Oh yes, the cake tester needs to come back!

After a couple of days, I could take the most popular requests and send them off to HO!
 
i'm all for the forged cutlery holder, cookbook stand, and more stones with handles. it would also be cool if we made serving pieces (big forks, spoons, etc) other than the outdoor set and carving set.

Ohhh, yummy! An Almond flavored Sprinkle Seasoning.....makes my mouth water thinking about it!
 
I had a customer request a tea kettle to match her new excutive cookware.
 
How about a smaller size of the collapsible bowl...and ditto on all of the above suggestions.

Oooohhhh, I have been getting requests for that - and also for it in different colors!
 
Some of the things I keep requesting are:
teakettle (to match either/both cookware lines)
SA teapot or Tea for One set (wouldn't a chubby, round little teapot with dots on it be cute?)
SA serving pieces: S&P shakers, creamer & sugar set, gravy boat (hello? cross-sell with the gravy separator!), butter dish
French butter keeper
cookbook stand to match the SA stands
spice rack sized to hold our seasonings
pot rack (not gonna happen, because there are too many options/sizes/shapes for it to appeal to a lot of people)Some things I've recently added to my wish list:
chocolate or mocha sprinkles
2-cup batter bowl (a guest just asked me about this last night)
a few easy hot food mixes for fall and winter (cobbler, warm dips, etc.)

YES!!! to all of the things I bolded!:D I LOVE the idea of a Dots Tea Pot, or Tea for One set - I think the Tea For One Set would be a huge seller! What a great gift for teachers, moms, grandmas, aunts, hostess gift.....I think I am going to send in a request for that!

ohhhh... I didn't think about almond SPRINKLES!! Yum!

And I love the teakettle idea!!
 
Yes--chocolate sprinkles!
 
Spice rack, spice rack, spice rack

Did I mention Spice Rack??:D
 
Tea Kettle
Spice Rack
Nice serving spoon for the trifle bowl
Butter Bell (I've had requests) HMMMMMMMM I'll have to keep thinking. I know there was something else I've been wanting.
 
Spice Rack, Forged Cutlery Holder, Lids for the SA Square Bowls, Hamburger Press :chef:
 
Ditto the forged cutlery holder and the chocolate sprinkles!
 
I like everyone's ideas so far. Definitely the cherry/olive pitter and cake tester back. And I've had a lot of requests for a vegetarian cookbook. Some nice serving pieces to go with the SA and trifle bowl would be great too. And some new kids products. Most of my customers have kids who love to help in the kitchen.
 
Oh and I've had a lot of requests for a smaller collapsible bowl and in a color other than green. I've only sold one but I'm sure I could sell a lot more if they were a different color.
 
Sprinkles sound wonderful
5 in Forged Santuko knife
Serving pieves
olive oil container
spice rack
all the above!!!

My daughter has been asking for products she can use. I am all for some kid products. We have made most of the stuff in both kids cookbooks. She likes to play pampered chef with her friends. Its cute!
 
I want Cranberry small bowls!!!!

Ironically we discontinued the big spoon and big fork about a year ago.
 
Weird huh? Did you ever notice that the in the catalog we discontinued the coffee, we introduced the scoop clip.

I would also like a vegetarian cookbook and a kids cookbook.
 
Tea for One set & Chocolate/Mocha Sprinkles sound awesome!

I would also like
- forged cutlery storage
- garlic keeper
- SA dinnerware (all white...love the dots but just don't go in my house)
- SA butter dish & gravy boat (as mentioned)
- solid cranberry SA plates, bowls, etc.
- definitely Kids in the Kitchen items (have lots of guests ask for them)
- glass bowls (prep bowls) but larger (maybe graduating sizes)
- smaller Santoku forged (not green)
- Woven Selections picnic basket (to hold the outdoor pieces) w/tablecloth
- cookbook holder

I guess that is all for now.
 
I WANT THE COFFEE AND TEA BACK TOO!!!

That big spoon and fork I use ALL the time. Love it, although the non slip backing came off, wonder if that's why they DC'd them? They came off on both the spoon and fork. Still great to use though!
 
Just please make some lids for the SA bowls and rectangle baker!!!!

More open stock SS.

A collaspible collander.. I am convinced this is coming. First the bowl, see how it is received, then a collander.

Something.. anything to hold our spices. At least for consultants.

That same person must have made the decision to discontinue the Guacamole Seasoning :cry: and bring in an Avocado Knife.
