I love my kitchen shears use them at least 3 X day. I love the trifle bowl--It makes even simple recipes look pretty and it is so easy to store and take.

Leave it to KG to have a cheap product as his favorite. :p

I agree the chopper is fun to sell!

I think the skinny or classic scraper are my favorites just due to being "most used" and in my kitchen for 12 years now!

KG--what all do you use your mini whipper for?

Julie
 
My personal favorite is the Small Bar Pan or Small Round Stone, as I use my toaster oven for anything that I can, especially in the summer!

My favorite to sell is the Large Bar Pan as when there is more than 1 person living in a house, that pan does it all!
 
I love the cookware, knives, and large grooved cutting board.
 
My favorite is my executive cookware. I also love to sell the cookware, using a saying I read on hear, "Does you husband have a riding lawn mower? If he can spend that much and then you need lifetime guarantee cookware."

For mixing a powered product Benefiber into liquids.
 
Executive cookware ~ hands down! Use it EVERY day and at EVERY show.

Favorite sell: cookware (of course) or 2 Large Bar Pans...only sell them in 2's! One for bacon and the other for pancakes...the last time I sold a SINGLE one was in 2003! I've even got my recruits getting a second one! LOL

I agree with Laura 3. Also, how do you do pancakes on the large bar pan Ginny?

Julie
 
I Love my Forged Cutlery I used it all the time I also sell more of it than I do the other knifes....
 
I want to win Executive Cookware at Conference!!!!!

I have the double griddle...I used it last night for dinner...cooked bacon eggs and pancakes on it...forgot that I love it. :)
 
My Classic Batter Bowl!!! I use it for everything!
 
Omg twixit clips. Don't be fooled by impostors at IKEA or places like that! It's so tempting to get those packages of 20 for like $3, but DON'T!
They don't keep the bags as tight as our beloved ones, and OURS are safe to use in boiling water. I dont know why you would want to, but hey! :D

Pancakes the easy way
2 cups bisquick, 2 eggs, 1 cup milk. Pour batter into bar pan and bake at 375 for 15 minutes. Cut into squares with Pizza Cutter and add your favorite toppings. Use the Apple Peeler Corer Slicer to top the batter with perfect thin apple slices and you will have WONDERFUL apple pancakes!
 
Bar Pan recipes attached :)

I would cry if I lost my Lg bar pan...it's my fave product...although all of them are my great!
 
Microplane adjustable grater (I have 2)
Food Chopper
Forged Cutlery
Cutting board

I use all of the above every day. I'm working on earning my Executive cookware free... I used to cook w/only cast iron until I got my saute' pan in my kit, now I want it all.
 
I can't pick a fav...I love it all that's why I am a consultant!
I use everyday, Scrapers, Stainless Mixing Bowls, Batter Bowls, Executive Cookware LOVE IT!, Quick Stir Pitcher, the new green knives and the cutting boards...

my son loves the Cut & Seal...he asks for a "Pampered Chef sandwich" everyday!!!
 
Oh and I also use my Lg Bar Pan alot,....I have to get out of here or I will name the entire catalog....I LOVE IT ALL :)
 
Large Bar Pan...

And my can opener.

I sell so many of those things, too! I guess my passion for them carries through?

That's it! Easy, fun and I usually get a phone call from the parents saying..."okay, how do you make square pancakes?" The kids go home and ask them to make square pancakes like Mrs. Syphax! LOL

Thanks for posting it Laura...I was busy playing with our new puppy!

On the HO Tour. They usually draw one consultant from each bus load to win a shopping spree.
 
What I usually tell people at my shows is that my favorite product is the kit and opportunity. :DMy actual favorite individual product varies wildly, depending on what I've been cooking lately.

Laura -- have you seen the IKEA ones? They are the same... They even have the Twixit trademark and Made in Sweden stamped inside of them. :( They just don't have "The Pampered Chef" on the outside of them.

HOWEVER -- they do not have the LARGE size one or our colors :)
 
I use the microplane adjustable grater every day for hard cheeses, garnishing with chocolate or nuts, zesting lemon or lime - anything that you might want to grate. My family thinks I'm mad at them now if I don't garnish at least a little and this is the easiest way!

I also love and promote highly the can opener. I say it is my mission to get at least one in every kitchen because: no sharp edges, no metal slivers, no cross contamination between cans because the contents of the can do not ooze up onto the mechanism...
