Customer Reviews of Oxo Good Grips Cake Tester
Customer Rating: Summary: No more tooth pick wasting! Comment: It is so thin and works well. It's just great because I don't have to continue buying toothpicks or skewers to check cakes and breads. If you're a life time baker this is definitely for you! Customer Rating: Summary: great idea Comment: Always used toothpicks but when I bought this I love it and never forget to get it out when baking. Customer Rating: Summary: A must for every kitchen Comment: Tired of the toothpick not being long enough or the butter knife that leaves an ugly slit/cut in your baked creation? If you are, then this is the product for you. Sturdy finger grip and long stainless steel rod makes it so much easier to test for "done-ness". The only reason I give it four stars instead of 5 is because the rod can easily be bent if you apply to much pressure or just throw in a drawer with other utensils. For $2.00 it's well worth it, and for that price everyone should have one. Customer Rating: Summary: excellent cake tester Comment: so far i've used it on everything BUT cakes but it does its job, good quality handy i like the circle on top so i can fasten it to the dishwasher basket and its length is just perfect. no more underdone bundt cakes. and i like that unlike knives it really doesnt RUIN the testing area. no more burnt fingertips trying to tap hot baking goods. i love OXO. if i continue i'll be a full OXO household Customer Rating: Summary: I'll never buy another toothpick again! Comment: I've had my eye on this little gem for a while, and once my toothpick supply started to dwindle, I went ahead and ordered it. I am really glad I did because it seems like such a waste to use a toothpick one time, only to toss it in the trash. This tester has a nice long length and I like the handle--You don't have to worry about it getting lost in a drawer. I know some people have mentioned that it is "too thin." It IS thin, but I think that's great. I have been known to get a little poke-happy with my cakes and bread in my attempts to achieve baking perfection, so I don't want them to look like they've been stabbed repeatedly. More Reviews How to know when the cake is done? There's the broom bristle method (yuck), the finger tap method (unreliable), and the toothpick method (only works with shallow cakes). If you love to bake make sure you get the best results for your efforts and use a real, genuine cake tester. Choosing Appliance -> Energy-Efficient Refrigerators The EnergyGuide label on new refrigerators will tell you how much electricity in kilowatt-hours (kWh) a particular model uses in one year. The smaller the number, the less energy the refrigerator uses and the less it will cost you to operate. In addition to the EnergyGuide label, don't forget to look for the Energy Star label. A new refrigerator with an Energy Star label will save you between $35 and $70 a year compared to the models designed 15 years ago. This adds up to between $525 and $1,050 during the average 15-year life of the unit. Choosing Appliance -> Strainers We recommend 2 strainers for every kitchen. The first is a solid stainless steel colander (one big enough to wash a lot of lettuce at once). The second strainer is a fine mesh conical strainer (called a chinois) which is a must for any serious sauce or stock making. A chinois is an expensive purchase, but with care it will last many years.
