Danish Ebelskiver IronScandinavians love the spherical little pancakes known as ebleskiver. Countless "traditional" recipes for them exist, but any old pancake recipe will do, including prepackaged pancake mix and concoctions beginning with cake mixes. Shape defines ebleskiver, not ingredients, and only an ebleskiver pan delivers. Safe on gas or electric stovetops, this one is made from heavy cast aluminum so it won't warp. And it's nonstick, to make flipping the pancakes easy and cleanup a snap. (For authenticity, turn ebleskiver with a knitting needle.) Its wood handle stays cool and adds a rustic touch. There's a notch on the handle's end for hanging on a hook or peg.

Swedish Rosette Timbale SetRosettes are deep-fried Swedish cookies sprinkled with sugar. Timbales are deep-fried Swedish cookies filled with fresh fruit or, in savory form, with hot creamed chicken, fish, or vegetables. Greeks call their version of these cookies diples: they are dipped in honey, chopped nuts, and cinnamon. Mexicans sprinkle their deep-fried cookies in sugar, cloves, and cinnamon. Inventive cooks can change cookie flavorings and vary pastry-shell fillings to create entrees or pretty appetizers. All of these possibilities (recipes included) come courtesy of this rosette and timbale set. There are star, floral, and maze molds to make rosettes and fluted heart, square, and round molds for timbales. Molds screw onto the double-dip handle for frying two at a time. Heat the molds in hot oil, dip them into a batter, then dip them into the oil again. Cookies or shells easily slip off the cast-aluminum molds.

Norwegian Krumkake IronThe Scandinavian version of Italian pizzelle, krumkakes are light, crisp, cone-shaped cookies served either sprinkled with sugar or filled with whipped cream. This hinged iron makes them the traditional way. Lay the iron's holder over either a gas or electric stovetop burner. Preheat the iron in the holder, then spoon a little krumkake batter on the bottom half of the iron. Close the iron gently and cook briefly, then turn the iron over and cook for a few more seconds. Finally, remove the cookie and shape it around the wood rolling cone while it's still pliable. This iron has the solid, practical feel of an Old World tool, before push buttons took away much of the fun and satisfaction of creating something wonderful with patience and a little skill.

Nonstick Cooling GridSturdy and durable, this commercial-weight cooling grid measures 16 by 20 inches so it can hold lots of cookies or other baked goods and is spacious enough to keep a turkey roaster off the countertop. It's coated in nonstick to release food easily and clean without scouring. The grid is dishwasher-safe.

2 Level Cooling Rack SetDouble rack set with special holders to create a space saving double decker cooling rack. Racks can be separated and used side by side if desired. Durable coated steel for easy clean up and durability. Each rack measures 11" x 16".

Reusable Bundt Cake Thermometer — Tired of guessing when a cake is perfectly baked? Insert this reusable cake tester into the centre of a cake for 15 seconds, remove, and check the colour. The tip changes from black to bright red when the cake is done. The sensor identifies when the internal temperature of the cake is 195°F. Hand wash..
