From its PoachPod, to EggXactRing, to EggXactPeel and more, Fusionbrands is excited to share its latest egg invention – the CrackSpot. CrackSpot is a bowl-sided easy eggshell cracker that eliminates messy unsanitary raw egg dripping down the side of bowls or landing on countertops. Its flexible design fits over a variety of bowl sizes and various shaped rims to make a clean break in eggshells. Whether the bowl is glass, plastic, stainless steel or ceramic, the CrackSpot rests securely on the edge. The safe to touch plastic "blade" limits shell fragments and allows you to crack with confidence. The CrackSpot is made of high tem- perature silicone and is dishwasher safe for an easy cleanup. So, if you're crack- ing one raw egg or a dozen, for baking and cooking, CrackSpot will have you cracking with ease. For those that love boiled eggs, but get irri- tated with removing the eggshell, Fusionbrands EggXactPeel, which was introduced last year, and was a 2018 GIA Finalist, is a must-have tool. With the EggXactPeel you can rid yourself of the frustrating task of removing annoying tiny shell fragments piece by piece and tearing apart the boiled egg. With two special function ends, you can make the perfect crack with the plastic "blade" end, then switch to the peeler end to help remove the stubborn shell. The custom curve allows a slim fit under the membrane to easily release the entire eggshell. So, whether you are working with raw eggs or boiled eggs, Fusionbrands has a tool for each task with the new CrackSpot and the EggXactPeel. Check out all of Fusionbrands egg tools and new products at Discover Design booth #N8307. After the show, go to www.fusionbrands.com or call 877.279.2002. Anatomy of the Perfect Cutting Board There is no cook who has not struggled with a cutting board that doesn't accom- modate juice when carving a variety of meats, fruits and vegetables. Whether it is used by a beginner cook, accomplished home chef, smok- ing/barbecue genius or the family sous chef, Karving King can make life mess- free. After two years of development, Karving King has officially launched The Dripless Cutting Board. This large capac- ity cutting board not only cuts the mess, but also eliminates the stress when carv- ing everything from turkeys and roasts to fruits and vegetables. All the liquid juices are collected in the drip tray instead of on kitchen countertops and floors, making for a significantly improved cooking experience. The board is as attractive as it is functional. The contemporary design and choice of colors (red, green, blue) will enhance any kitchen. Made in America, the boards are crafted of a very lightweight and durable polyethyl- ene which will stand the test of time. The polyethylene is non-porous and odor-resistant. Additional features include a large 20.25-inch by 13.25-inch carving sur- face, spikes to hold the food in place during carving, a removable drip draw- er to collect and reuse juices, easy grip handles and non-slip rubber feet to keep the board firmly in place. The drip drawer can also be used to store cutlery. BPA-free and bacteria-resistant, the Karving King Dripless Cutting Board is dish- washer-safe and requires no special cleaning prod- ucts after use. Because it can go in the dishwasher, it's also ideal for cutting up raw meat and fish. "I originally con- ceived this cutting board design to make my life easier," says Kenneth King, inventor of the Karving King Dripless Cutting Board. "It saves cleanup time so after a big meal I'm spending time with family and friends instead of being a slave to my kitchen. I think this is the last cutting board a cook will ever need to buy. Other flat cutting boards with a simple drip edge don't come close to preventing the messy cleanup and are often made of bacteria collecting, non-dishwasher safe wood." Karving King offers a money-back warranty with- in 30 days of purchase, a six month limited warranty for any material defects and replacement parts should they be necessary. Priced at $49.95 with free shipping and handling, the Karving King Dripless Cutting Board can be purchased at www.karvingking.com, Amazon, eBay and soon to be in retail stores. It makes a great gift for anyone looking to upgrade their carving experience.
