Nifty Kitchen Gadget Must-Haves

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been working in my kitchen and I think, This would be so much easier if I just had (blank). I’ve been doing some browsing and found some nifty kitchen gadgets that I’m pretty positive I must have! How much easier would certain tasks be if I had this stuff? 
Ribbon
This thing is awesome. It’s a silicone ribbon that allows you to shape pancakes, cakes, etc. into anything you want. The magnets inside the ribbon attach to a baking sheet so nothing escapes. I need this!! This product is still in the production process. But I’ll be at the front of the line when I can buy one!
Ice Cream Scoop & Stack
Summer time means ice cream palooza. The Ice Cream Scoop & Stack from Cuisipro would be so awesome to have for all the ice cream cones we scoop up with my husband’s family! Lots of grand kids with a dairy manager for a grandpa means loads and loads of ice cream cones all summer long.

 Rotary Peeler
This bad boy from Joseph Joseph has three different types of peelers in one. How awesome would this be to own? You can choose standard, serrated, or julienne by rotating till the desired blade shows up. Awe. Some.
Melon Cutter
When I think of summer grub I think of fresh fruit. It can get pretty darn tedious cutting up all that fruit! I love this melon cutter and how much time I could save by using this to cut a honeydew or cantaloupe. Pretty sure I need to get one of these before summer comes!

Fruit Storage Bin
This isn’t necessarily a kitchen gadget, but I love it. I love the idea of getting the fruit off the counter but still easy to get to. And it’s super cute, too!
 Herb Scissors
I love using fresh herbs in cooking, but I hate the time it takes to cut them. These scissors are a MUST for someone who loves to cook with herbs! They cut the herbs quickly and perfectly without crushing them. These scissors would make a great gift for the culinary artist in your life.
Pineapple Corer and Slicer
And speaking of fruit that I rarely buy because I hate cutting it…I NEED this gadget if I ever want to buy pineapple for my family. I am terrible at cutting pineapple so this thing would change everything. Another great item just in time for summer!

 

Do you have a favorite nifty kitchen gadget? I want to hear about it! Leave a comment so I can learn about more kitchen gadget must-haves!
