Fun In the Kitchen



Wilton has just introduced their newest book and fun tools. BROWNIE FUN! TM

Brownies can do more than just taste great. They can make your party special or give as gift. The book is a great way to learn how to make the best brownies and get loads of fun ideas.
Cut fun and decorative edges on brownies and treats with the Brownie and treat cutter. The new Batter Blender has a multi sided head, which is great for mixing faster, while the scallop tip breaks up clumps. The Brownie Lifter has a wide, angled blade that is perfect for lifting your brownies from the pan. Plus we have sticks for making brownie pops, treat bags and boxes for gift giving.
