Product Notes:
Norpro Stainless Steel Apple Corer with Plunger
Apples fill you with healthy fibre rather than the junk food you might otherwise be tempted to snack on; they provide antioxidants; and they're readily accessible. However, the time or effort to prepare them into slices can sometimes be a deterrent. But with this ingenious push, twist, and pull mechanism, the problem of coring apples for your daily snack or healthy baked apple dessert just got a lot easier!
Just insert the stem into the end of fruit with twisting clockwise motion. Then, while keeping your hand away from the area where the stem cutter pierces through, twist and push the device down, allowing its plunger to slide between your fingers until it is through the fruit. Then pull it out to extract the core from the apple, and finally push the plunger in to remove the core from the device.
Norpro Saucinator (Regular Size)
Designed for all your mixing, stirring, and whisking needs, the innovative silicone C-shaped spring-loop-whisk end protects your pots and pans from scratches and nicks while efficiently dispatching lumps and unevenness in your batter or sauce.
Moreover, the added spring coil around the lower part of the handle enhances the mixing power of this implement, so it's well prepared to deal with whatever mixable material you throw at it. Looking for a way to mix things up a bit in your kitchen? Try the Saucinator - a stirring experience!
Heat resistant up 480°F/250°C, the Regular sized one is: 10.75 x 3.25 x 3.25" [27 x 8 x 8 cm]). Please note, although this item can be used with non-stick and glass materials, care must be taken, since the large spring coil around the shaft and the open end of the U-shaped head are not silicone-coated.
Norpro Silicone Funnel Set
If you brew your own wine (or mead, or beer) or if you can your own foods, you know it can be difficult to find the right kind of funnel. The regular inflexible plastic funnels don't fit snugly into bottles or jars, and they're easily knocked off; moreover, you need just the right size to match particular bottles, so they can proliferate, and clutter cabinets or drawers. Not this trio.
These silicone funnels are flexible, which not only allows them to fit snugly, but also enables them to bend to fit a variety of bottle and jar necks in a way that stiff plastic funnels can't. Moreover, they're also tough; dishwasher, freezer, and microwave safe; and highly heat resistant (up to 465°F/420°C!).
They're perfect for kitchens with limited storage, as their collapsible form minimizes space (occupying just 13 x 14 x 14 cm (5 x 5.5 x 5.5") when all nested together). As for their diameters, the mouth of the Small funnel opens up to 7.5 cm (3"), while its Stem is .6 cm (0.25"); the Medium funnel's mouth reaches 10 cm (4"), and its stem is 1 cm (0.38"); while the Large funnel's mouth opens to 13 cm (5") and its stem is 1.25 cm (0.5") in diameter.
Norpro Smart Universal Lid
Keeping your cooking space clean can be hard enough without having to worry about splashes and boil-overs from pans and pots. An ordinary lid can help, but without a steam vent, pressure can build up, making your food more volatile, and more likely to scald you when removing the lid. That's what makes this specially designed lid such a wonderful investment.
It features a steam valve that can be toggled open or closed, and is able to form a snug fit on pots and pans ranging from 7.5 through 12 inches in diameter, thanks to the highly-heat resistant (up to 465°F) silicone on it edges.
Much of the lid is made from a non-stick material, but its centre is made of tempered glass, to enable you to easily see the progress of the food you're cooking without needing to lift the lid to peek. Dimensions: 12.25 x 12.25 x 1.75 inches
Norpro Lemon/Lime Slicer
This compact unit can help save time and virtually eliminate the chance of cutting yourself when preparing lemon or lime garnishes for food or drinks by easily slicing lemons or limes into eight perfect wedges in just seconds, while safely holding them in place as you press down.
It's small enough to tuck away in a drawer between uses, with the blades nestled into the base so highly unlikely to be of any danger, and light enough to place on top of other items in a cabinet. Dimensions: 9 x 11 x 10 cm (3.5 x 4.25 x 4").
The dual head, combination Norpro Scrub Brush & Scraper
Norpro smartly saves time and space with this combination kitchen tool. One end features a stiff-edged spatula blade, which can initially be used to serve the food out of the frying pan or pot, and later to scrape off extra stubborn residues either from the cookware or from the plates or other dish surfaces. And since you'd need to wash it at the sink after using that end anyway, while you're there.... the other end features a generously bristled brush with fairly stiff bristles for washing up and scrubbing.
Both ends are suitable for use with all cookware and dishes, including non-stick surfaces. Available in your choice of either Green or Red. Dimensions: Entire tool is over a foot long; middle handle area is 6 inches long; scraper end is about 2.5 inches wide and 2" high; bristle head is about one inch wide, not including the 7 rows of 1" long bristles. 
Norpro Frost Pop Makers
Make fresh frozen treats at home with this set of 8 molds and accompanying stand. The slim profile of these fudgsicle-shaped molds makes for a smaller footprint in the freezer compared to more cylindrical-shaped ones, while their wider width also enables you to prepare more elegant frozen treats with layering or fruit designs displayed in the frozen surface.
The molds (which hold 20 ml / 2 oz each) are made of a durable plastic; the reusable handles, which include a drip-catching tray, are made from an anti-slip soft material; and the stand can of course withstand the frozen temperatures, and also provides more stability and easy carrying if you take them all out to serve at once (though they can be removed individually).
Create countless variations: from simple and fun, to complex and gourmet, with any combination of ingredients. Try using fruit, juice, milks and even puddings. Three recipe ideas are included on the side of the box with photos, to help you get started.
When it comes to cooking vegetables, steaming preserves far more of their nutrients and natural antioxidants and is a much healthier alternative than boiling or frying them. The Norpro Silicone Steamer Basket with Locking Handle makes it easier than ever to to do this, whether on the stove or in the microwave.
With flexibility and contour folds, it fits not only in large pans (where it can accommodate up to one pound of produce at once), but in pans as small as 7" in diameter. Its inter-locking handles make it easy to lift from a pot with tongs, and enable it to wrap up into the shape of a fish to take up much less storage space. Its silicone material is durable, heat resistant up to 445°F/230°, and far easier to clean than those stainless steel steamers (which are also prone to rust).
