2. Pair your breakfasts or desserts with an individually served coffee from the Cuisinart Brewing System. The My K- Cup® Reusable Coffee Filter can be filled with any gourmet ground coffee to suit personal tastes and is conveniently stored right in the unit.

3. The T-fal Optigrill comes with six cooking programs designed with pre-set cooking temperatures and cycles for red meat, poultry, burgers, sandwiches and fish.

Only one tablespoon of oil is needed to cook 2.2 lbs of crispy french fries. The hot air distribution cooks delicious snacks like crunchy stir fried vegetables, seafood, meat and chicken.  We did a T-fal Actifry review in 2010 and we still love this product 3.5 years later! 

5. For home cooks with time on their side or those trying to cook in between shopping and errands, the Breville Fast-Slow Cooker is one appliance that lets you live both lives. The Fast Slow Cooked let s you tender meat in minutes using pressure or flavor it for eight hours when slow cooking.

Special settings allow you to proof breads, rolls – even homemade pretzels and donuts. Bake them faster, with bakery-quality results while increasing moisture retention.

7. Prepare your ingredients in the KitchenAid Ultra Stand Mixer with its 10-speed control range with a capacity for kneading two loaves of bread. The tilt-head design allows for clear access the stainless steel bowl. The stand mixer includes a flat beater, dough hook and wire whip. With 26 colours to choose from, chefs only need to order their custom colour in-store.  I received this absolutely gorgeous Ice color courtesy of London Drugs.  I took a shot of it on my kitchen table beside my Charlie Brown Christmas Tree, and someone on Instagram pointed out that Snoopy is in the picture now too – can you see him?
