Screwpull Patented 4 Wheel Foil Cutter - Black

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cocktail Accessories
from: Screwpull


Prior to picking up the Screwpull cutter, I always used a serrated-edge foil cutter in a lever-type corkscrew. Those work well, but aren't very fast and you can cut yourself, either on the blade or the foil. The cutting wheels in the Screwpull cutter work quickly and well on all but the heaviest foils (hence the 4 stars). Squeeze firmly, twirl, and lift - off comes a perfect little foil cap.

In addition to this little gem, I recommend Screwpull's pocket model corkscrew: Screwpull Pocket Model Corkscrew, Black

Riedel Large Microfiber Crystal Cloth

I work at several wineries and these cloths are an industry standard. They polish all glassware absorbing and leaving no lint. They are the same material used to clean sunglasses so they are designed not to leave even the smallest abrasion.

Fred Bone Chillers Ice Cube Tray

The concept is cute, but the ice cubes are hard to get out of the tray. The tray is very flexible which helps, but to get the ice cubes out of the tray without "breaking the ice", sort-of-speak, one must either let the ice cubes sit for a few minutes or just run water over them which loosens the cubes and therefore they become easier to remove without breaking a few skulls.

Fred Frozen Smiles Ice Cube Tray

from: Fred

April 25, 2008
I own several Fred products, so picking up these was an easy choice. I actually bought them with a couple other items that were all on the 4-for-3 promo.

These are very humorous and easy to remove from the mold. I agree that the details melt away rather quickly, but here's what I do that seems to help. After unmolding, I place them on a plate w/ wax paper and put them back in the freezer while I make some more. I do this so there are at least 12-16 and if they have had additional time in the freezer outside of the mold, they do seem to last a bit longer. Also make sure you are using cold beverages to begin with if possible.

If you are looking for more Fred products here are a couple I can recommend:

Maxamà 8oz Stainless Steel Hip Flask with Screw Down Cap

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cocktail Accessories
from: BNF


Nice flask for holding your favorite beverage. I gave it 4 stars because it has a plastic screw on cap. I think most flasks like this one have plastic caps. Still, this is a good product at a fair price.
