Who May Find This Useful

Consultants interested in product speculation and community insights about upcoming offerings from Pampered Chef may find this discussion engaging.

Ooh that's a great idea! But I doubt that's what is going to change our cooking shows.I just keep thinking it has to be something to COOK (in some form). The ways to cook are:Baking
Roasting
Grilling
Stove top
Steaming
MicrowavingI think it is something that has to be used for one (or more) of those methods. It may have a cord (based on the survey). This will be a long four months of anticipation!
 
I am hoping for a smaller version of the Deep Covered Baker. I have a lot of friends who are single or just couples and they keep asking if PC came up with a smaller one.

I would personally like to see the Ultimate Mandoline changed to a ROUND or SQUARE food holder and add other blades.

Two months, right???
 
this is something small, but the current catalog no longer has a bottle opener - like for opening a corona or root beer - besides the bbq turner, which is kind of a hard sell just for that one function. there used to be one on the smooth edge can opener and i was surprised when the redesigned one didn't have it!

At the most, 61 days! It will be announced at the Spring Launch events, and the last one is in 61 days. Well, it could be 63 if HO waits until Monday to post on CC, but I'm sure we'll be sharing by then on here!

Was I the ONLY one who, when responding to the survey, was adamantly against anything with a cord? I figured most people felt this way. If that was the case, it shouldn't be anything with a cord.

NO to cords here. I cannot even imagine the returns headaches for those!:yuck:
 
ix-nay on the cord-ay
 
I also did not vote for the electrical items.

LOL! Probably a lot of head-slapping will be going on!

Think how hard it's going to be for the Feb 5th Spring Launchers to keep quiet for the next week after!

My AD heard a rumor that this is so top secret that the early Spring Launchers won't even see it. It won't be released until the last Spring Launches, on the 12th.

I hope and hope and hope this isn't true!! We were going to go to Baltimore on the 12th, but decided to change it to Columbus on the 5th since that's where most of our group is going!

Eh, I don't think they would keep it from the first couple launches. That would be a bit drastic and kind of unfair.

That wouldn't be very fair. We've done very well in past years keeping secrets from Conference, I don't see why we couldn't do the same with Spring Launch.
 
Agreed! I hope it's not true!
 
According to email sent out by HO today, it is a $49 value....
 
with a $49 price tag.. I think that rules out a pressure cooker, or any cookware for that matter.. or anything with a cord.
 
I am beginning to think it's a mini dcb.

It was sent to consultants who already had one show in, to encourage them to submit a second one.

I think.
 
Well if it's only $49 then it's not that Cooka thing....I can't imagine trying to sell that thing--how many times would I have to use the word "wastage" in my talk? is that even a real word, LOL?

Thanks Noora. That explains it, already have my 2. The suspense is killing me...
 
Hmmmmm, $49? Then I'm going with a smaller/different DCB. Maybe round instead of oval shaped?
 
I'm thinking it is an immersion blender.
 
It was probably only sent to the ones like me that have only submitted 1 show this month. :)
 
Last night at our team Christmas party we talked about the new product possibilities and all the rumors going on. Today my director e-mailed me this:I'm thinking the "flip" description of the upcoming new products in this weeks Weekly Bites means a literally description. I'm thinking an omelet flipper....."You'll flip when you earn the product featured on the Spring/Summer 2011 catalog cover! Hold and submit two December Shows by tomorrow to earn your Sell-A-Thon reward!"I think she may be onto something! :) Now it may not be an omelet flipper, but now I'm trying to think what other types of things can flipping pertain to.
 
Ohhhhhh that seems like it could be!!!
 
I don't know. I use "flip" all the time when I'm describing someone's excitement.
