New Cookware and Tea Kettles

There's a new addition to our big family of brands and it goes by the name "Chantal". Founded in 1979 by Heida Thurlow, Chantal was born due to the lack of beautiful and functional cookware that was available in the marketplace. Heida is a brilliant female mechanical engineer who couldn't find work in the late 1970s because corporations weren't willing to hire women for that kind of a position. These two reasons gave her the idea to start her own cookware company and ever since then Chantal has developed into a multimillion dollar internationally successful company. Visit our site to learn more about Chantal cookware, cookware accessories and tea kettles. Also, make sure to watch the chefdemo featuring Tre Wilcox, contestant on Bravo TV's Top Chef, where he demonstrates cooking with Chantal's Copper Fusion line of cookware.

Featured In...

RSVP's Select-A-Peel was featured today in the Cooking Club of America's "food now!" e-newsletter! Here's what they had to say about it:

"If retrieving something from your utensil drawer resembles a game of hide-and-seek, it might be time to consolidate. Because really, who needs three different peelers?

The answer to that one is easy—no one, now that the Select-A-Peel from R.S.V.P. International is on the scene.

This three-in-one tool has a blade to fit whatever your needs. Switch between a regular blade for everyday peeling tasks, a serrated softskin blade for soft or fibrous fruits and veggies, and a julienne blade for cutting strips of produce. All it takes is a turn of the knob on the side of the peeler head.

The peeler also comes equipped with an ergonomic softgrip handle, a built-in "thumbnail" for removing eyes from potatoes and a plastic blade cover for safe storage.

Good things do come in threes."
