I needed a good set of bowls for day to day cooking/baking needs. I found this reasonably priced set from crate and barrel and I'm very happy with them. They look great and store away easily.

My review
This book is great. Excellent pictures and a chapter dedicated to chocolate cakes. You can't ask for much better.
The cover pictured here is from the book I originally purchased overseas however I think it looks a little different in US markets.

With a nice long handle and a curved flexible head you'll be able to scrape and scoop batter or other ingredients from bowls and pots. Easy to clean, comfy to use, heat-resistant, and coordinated to match your red KitchenAid standmixer, now this is one heck of a spatula!
My review
I could really do with a good silicone spatula. This kitchen aid one would go quite nicely with my mixer

Description
Indispensable for entertaining, this handblown glass plate offers more than just an elegant way to present cakes, pies and tarts—it also doubles as a grand punch bowl. Turn the domed cover upside down on the inverted pedestal base to create a generous 6 1/2-qt. serving bowl. We recommend washing by hand. 12 3/4" diam., 11 1/4" high. Made in the USA.
My review
I received this cake stand as a gift last year and it's lovely. Yes it's a little on the large side and doesn't make for easy storage. But it makes up for that in it's sturdiness and classic looks.
