I know my son would love this cutter since he is choo choo obessed! I'll never look at a slice of bread the same again!

Nordic Ware's New Brownie Pan Raises the Bar -- 12 Bars, Actually

Aaron Burgess — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 15:30:00 GMT

Perennial snackers that they are, my kids go through a lot of brownies -- like, Betty Crocker-stock-boosting levels -- and as the designated brownie-slicer in our family, I'm loving this Chocolate Bar Brownie Pan from Nordic Ware.

Not only does the 13" x 7" pan mold your finished treats into the shape of a giant chocolate bar, but the ridged dividers eliminate the need for slicing. Just break off the individual pieces, and you've got 12 miniature snack bars -- all of which, thanks to the nonstick cast-aluminum surface, slide out perfectly every time.

$29.95 from Williams-Sonoma, and it looks like it'd make a great fudge pan, too.

New Babycook Accessories

Lisa Mulcahy — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 13:28:00 GMT

You first saw the Beaba Babycook here back in April. This is the gadget that allows you to steam, puree, as well as reheat homemade baby food. Now there are some new accessories to help store and serve that wholesome goodness.

An alternative to the ice cube tray method, Beaba has released a Tubberware of sorts to corral and freeze your homemade baby food. The BPA-free silicone container, $19.95, is designed with 2-oz. cups for freezing seven servings. At dinnertime, the individual frozen portions slip out, ready for reheating in the Beaba Babycook or a microwave oven. In addition, Beaba also has a great set of French-designed spoons, $19.95 for a set of four, that you can pick up at Williams-Sonoma.

End of Season Steal: Kids’ Thanksgiving Tablecloth

Lisa Mulcahy — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 13:28:00 GMT

It’s probably too late to get this shipped in time for Turkey Day, but I’m all for cashing in on end of season sales. Check out the markdown on this kids’ Thanksgiving tablecoth.

When I was of the age to be at the kid’s table, the table itself always seemed to be an afterthought comprised of a card table with plastic table covering. Why not make it special with Williams-Sonoma’s Kids’ Thanksgiving Tablecloth that depicts the story of the first Thanksgiving. Aside from feeling grown up they’ll learn that there’s more to the holiday than pigging out on pie. It’s on clearance right now for $25.99, marked down from $59.

Cooking for Baby: The Cookbook

Erin Behan — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 12:57:00 GMT

So you've got your babycook in hand but have no idea what to cook? Once you get beyond basic purees and cereals (although the book has info on that, too), you might want to move onto stews, risottos, muffins and waffles, all detailed in Cooking for Baby ($19.95), a Williams-Sonoma exclusive.

Cookies Take Off with Rocket Spatula

Heather Kuldell — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 20:31:00 GMT

If there’s one word that will rocket a kid’s afternoon into the stratosphere, it’s “cookies.” With this Rocket Spatula you can fuel even more fun by having your child play co-pilot to a delicious bond-building activity, even if you cut a few corners with the store-bought, pre-mixed cookie dough. On sale at Williams-Sonoma for $5.99, the spatula features a flexible nylon head, a brushed stainless steel handle, and measure 10 inches long.

Calling All Aspiring Baby Food Chefs

Lisa Mulcahy — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 12:58:00 GMT

There’s a new French import in town and it just might change your mind about preparing baby food at home. Again, I’m going to file this under, “Why does all the really cool stuff launch in Europe?”

Now at Williams-Sonoma, you can get the Beaba Babycook, $139.95. Not just another kitchen gadget, this one has the goods to deliver. It multitasks as a steamer, blender, warmer and defroster. First it steam cooks vegetables, fruits, meat and fish in less than 15 minutes, then purees or blends them to the desired consistency. You can also use it to quickly reheat or defrost precooked foods. Sign me up for Baby Food Making 101, this seems easy.

Aaron Burgess — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 16:03:00 GMT

As you reflect on the madness that was yesterday's feast, remember there are at least two more major holiday meals to cook before Jan. 2, so get a head start on your prep work with this smart, iPod-style kitchen timer ($19.95 from Williams-Sonoma). Designed with multitaskers in mind, the Triple Timer independently monitors cooking times for up to three dishes at once -- assuming you're not ADD enough to forget which countdown goes with which dish.

Feed Me: Egg-alicious Lunch

crazedparent — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 20:16:00 GMT

This idea is so simple yet pure genius for parents who like to add a little fun to their kid's lunches. Lunch in a Box took ice cream sandwich molds and went wicked crafty by using them to serve up some cute-looking treats. Adorable idea to take the monotony out of making school lunches!

Williams-Sonoma sells a set of three molds for $9.95.
