These are awesome too!! Thank you so much! What was that "tong" shaped item?

Kernel cutter for corn on the cob. That will be a big seller around here.

Those were the sauté tongs, though I'm not sure what exactly the point of them is (i.e. why one would need them when we've got the Chef's tongs). Any attendees wanna share?

Those are the new saute tongs. They are stainless heads with silicone on the outside so that you can use them in your cookware. They store flat like the bamboo tongs and then fold over for use. They are long and skinny for getting into pickle jars, dipping stuff, ect.

 

[pampchefrhondab]

Oh, cake testers? At least that's what the look like for HWC. These will go over very BIG!! Sorry if I missed them being mentioned earlier!

Thank you so much for sharing these - they are great pictures. Love the Gilligan's Island skit!!

They are skinny so you can use them for many things.

Yes they are for HWC. The skit was awesome! They used the premise as a boat loosing the new PC products. And one of the sales staff (cannot remember her name) was thrown over board trying a new theme show on a boat.

Thanks for the pics!

Was pic 24 the Pineapple thing? It looks like a larger version of the Apple Wedger.

 

[Leth]

Great pictures...thanks for sharing!

 

[leftymac]

Using them to get into jars makes sense. i just think the name 'sauté tongs' is kinda silly. Same with the bamboo 'cracker' tray -- yet all the pics of it show anything BUT crackers in it!

 

[raebates]

Thanks. Between your pictures and Deb's I have a good idea which items I'm going to be most excited about.

 

[twopamperedchefs]

Fantastic! Thanks for the great pictures!! I can't wait to see them in person.

 

[wadesgirl]

Thanks for the pics!

Yes, it's huge! Looks just like a larger apple wedger. They also showed doing a cucumber with it. Looked a little hard to try to do a cucumber but it cored the whole thing.

They showed pictures of picking up delicate items that you may not be able to grab with the chef's tongs in your cookware. I loved the picture of the soup and sandwich on the cracker tray.

 

[leftymac]

I wish they had a picture of it doing a pineapple! It's totally different from the pineapple slicer I got from Williams-Sonoma. That one spirals down into the pineapple, pulling it out in one huge spiral that you can then cut into rings. Then you're left with an intact shell to fill with a festive, yet incredibly gay, drink.

I love the soup and sandwich picture too! A very elegant way to serve, i think.

Cute apron....what's the story on that? Available for purchase or an item earned?

What great pictures. I have been excited to learn what the new products were since I earned the 6k level in Nov.....this just makes me more excited now after seeing them...THANKS!

 

[Dianneskitchen]

Thanks so much for the pictures. They were great

Darn! I was hoping the Pineapple wedger was going to be something else. They sell these Pineapple things that "screw" into the pineapple, so you don't have to remove the outside skin. But from the pic of our new one, it looks like you have to remove the skin first???

I think it would cut through the skin so you don't have to do that first.

I think it's for submitting 2 shows in March or 2 shows at the beginning of the month or something like that! They have that style or a smaller "uni-sex" black apron that ties around the waist.

What kind of drink is that?! :balloon: You should have been there it was so much fun! The catalog shows a great picture of it slicing a pineapple. I just didn't get a picture of it to post. Do you want me to take a picture of it in the catalog just for you?

 

[cvaccaro]

I must say I love the HWC plates as well. They are gorgeous, any idea if anyone can order or if only a host special.

Yes it does cut the skin off the outside. Maybe I should just take a picture of the catalog!

They did mention about allowing guests to purchase the host special at full price but didn't go into much about it.

 

[BettieC]

OMG these are awesome!!! I am LOVING the HWC items! The bamboo is looking better and better...lol.

Yes, that would be awesome if you did that! And it would've been way more fun if I were there. A party follows me wherever I go!

YES YES YES!! I want to see it in action.And the drink would have to have rum, pineapple juice, be fizzy, and have an umbrella.Robin

Leftymac: You described the one I was hoping for! Yes, it leaves the shell intact.

I think Williams-Sonoma has a patent on that one. When I bought it, it said "Williams-Sonoma Exclusive"

 

[wadesgirl]

Okay, I'll do it! Give me one second.

you 'da bomb, girlfriend.

They said the tongs can be used to flip small things, such as shrimp, in a saute pan

 

[wadesgirl]

You cut off the top and bottom of the pineapple and slowly wiggle it down. Then they said if you wanted to you can pull it back to the top, rotate 45 degrees and slice down again for wedge size.

 

[wadesgirl]

I try! Just for you, it's on there! DH asked what the heck I was doing photographing the catalog!Oops, go back a page to see it!

I <3 it!!!!!!

 

[wadesgirl]

I <3 it!!!!!!

I think it will be a great seller. I hate cutting pineapple but love fresh pineapple!

 

[straitfan]

LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!I've been trying to wrap my brain around how it would work. That pic is PERFECT!
Thanks!

 

[leftymac]

Wadesgirl you better not volunteer to take any more pictures. Soon someone will be asking you to scan the entire catalog and CN to post!

Soooo what kind of festive, yet incredibly gay, drink are you thinking of???


Okay- so I could read all the posts I would have read the drink! LOL

No way! I'm still tired from my trip and need to go call my team members here in ten minutes. After that my computer is going away and I'm laying down on the couch to do nothing until I go to bed.

 

[candiejayne]

LOL ok, she can do it! jk! Thank you so much for posting everything! It's awesome!

 

[leftymac]

Any drink served inside of a pineapple shell has to be incredibly gay, especially when it's being held by a guy who is 6'2" and 250 lbs.

I see that it was partially answered, but the Saute Tongs are intended for little things that would be overwhelmed by the Chef's Tongs.

I posted some pics of the HWC aprons in the HWC items thread. And the prices on the HWC items this year. Yes, the Daisy plates will be available individually (set of 4, anyway) or as a full set of 16 with the stand. Guests will be able to buy them at full price (listed in the HWC thread).
