I love a good kitchen accessory. Well-designed items not only make my life in the kitchen easier, but also put a smile on my face.
Here are four things that have been on my radar this week:
Milk Bottle Measuring Cups, Anthropologie, $24

When not on display, this space saving, stackable set separates to do double duty in the kitchen.
Function Bowl, MoMA, $24
Exclusively for the MoMA store
Ali Bakova’s Function Bowl features a raised crystalline glass dish and a shallow saucer. Serve nuts, olives, or fruit in the dish and use the saucer below to collect the pits and shells.
Stackable Oven to Table Cookware, A + R Store, $49 to $118

Multifunctional cookware for the multicourse menu. Go from freezer to oven (microwave or conventional) to table with these porcelain dishes. Three stackable sizes allow for countless configurations in the oven or on the table. Chef Andy found that the scalloped cut-outs allows air to circulate while in the oven, ensuring food is evenly heated. Heat-resistant silicone feet protect surfaces. Keep dinner warm by placing tea lights in a base dish beneath a serving dish. Designer Christian Bjørn is a legend in Scandinavian design, and it’s now wonder considering new entry—which won both the coveted Red Dot Award and the IF Industrial Design Award. With so many superpowers, of course, they’re dishwasher safe.
And just in time for the dog days of summer, the ultimate ice cream utensils…
Ice Cream Spades, Jen’s Ice Creams, $12

Polished, stainless steel, 6-inch scooping marvels.
Blunt ends make for efficient scooping of ice cream, sorbet, or frozen yogurt from any vessel.
