It was only a matter of time before somebody else jumped on the Zoku bandwagon. The Hamilton Beach Fastpop 10 Minute Ice Pop Instant Frozen Popsicle Maker apparently works just like a Zoku Quick Pop Maker, but at half the price. Are the frozen pops it produces just as good? Only time will tell. About ten minutes time, that is.

Product Features:

* Fast and easy! Makes 3 pops in under 10 minutes
* Make healthy treats by fruit juice or agave nectar instead of sugar to sweeten
* Makes 6 pops without refreezing base
* Control ingredients used, ideal for sensitive tummies or allergy-prone kids
* Includes: FastPop maker base, 6 dishwasher-safe sticks and removal tool, recipes

The popular Zoku Quick Pop Maker has a lot of things going for it, but sometimes freshly-made freezer pops in as little as seven minutes is just not quick enough. Fear not, freezer food fans, the Zoku Storage Case has the answer. The sturdy contraption offers long-term storage in the freezer for up to six Quick Pops at a time–assuming you can keep any around for that long.

Ice, tongues and metal don’t usually mix, but that’s just not the case with the Onyx Stainless Steel Popsicle Mold. Far from being a recipe for disaster, the setup produces a six-pack of ice pops in custom flavors, guaranteeing a result of delightful frozen treats—just be sure to remove the pop first, okay?

Fresh herbs, while delicious, are often quite a hassle to deal with: at the store they can be expensive, while growing your own can be tricky. However, cooking just wouldn’t be the same without them. So, we suffer the price tag or attempt to grow a green thumb, and when our efforts are rewarded with fresh herbs, two new issues arrive: storage and use.

While how to supply your kitchen with fresh herbs may require some contemplation, actually storing and using them doesn’t have to. The Fresh Mill Herb Storage and Mill solves two aspects of herb usage at once. The kitchen gadget stores herbs directly in the colorful little container, while the integrated mill makes adding herbs to dishes as easy as opening up the freezer. Just grab and twist, and stored herbs quickly become delectable ingredients. The innovative design conquers two of the more common issues regarding herb usage, and makes those fresh herbs in the store seem a lot more economical.

There’s no reason disrespect a tall glass filled with a refreshing beverage by adding just any ordinary ice cube. At least not when it’s this easy to super-size it.

The large two-inch receptacles are great not only for filling with water, but could also be used to produce jumbo-sized frozen juice cubes to add an interesting twist to your favorite adult beverages—despite the huge size, please remember to drink responsibly.

Buying ground beef in bulk is a sure-fire way to stretch your burger dollars. Best of all, when you make burgers at home, you get them exactly the way you like them. Just try getting finely chopped onions mixed into any fast-food burger. Like a splash of Worcestershire sauce to round out the flavor? Forget it if you ain’t making it at home. No matter what your favorite burger recipe may be, there’s a good chance you are going to need a storage solution.

Since ground beef doesn’t come in packages rounded to an exact appetite, it’s usually appropriate to buy more than you need. Having frozen burgers patiently waiting in the freezer is a comforting thought to burger lovers. You are going to need something to keep all those emergency burgers from sticking to each other. Johnson-Rose Hamburger Patty Paper is designed to do the trick. At a cost of $15.00 for a pack of 1500, no matter how much you love burgers you should be covered for the foreseeable future. For an add-on cost of a penny a burger, I think it’s a well-spent investment.
