Abstract: A cookie baking sheet is formed of substantially flat heat-resistant material including a baking surface in a first plane and defining a rolled peripheral edge and a baking area within the peripheral edge. A generally upright wall is integrally formed with the sheet material and extends along only a first portion of the periphery. This wall defines an upper edge contained within a second plane that is inclined relative to and meeting the first plane substantially along a second portion of the periphery. The upright wall is provided with a variable vertical height from a maximum predetermined height to a minimum predetermined height relative to said first plane. This variable height wall substantially encloses the baking area along the first portion of the peripheral edge. In the disclosed embodiment the baking sheet is rectangular and the upright wall extends along three of the sides while the fourth side is not founded by a wall.

Abstract: A rotation mechanism is provided for use with dispensers for rolled products. The rotation mechanism can be utilized with dispensers configured for a number of different paper, plastic, foil or other products supplied as rolled sheets on tubes or rolls, The rotation mechanism provides mild resistance to the rotation of a roll of products such that a desired quantity can be removed from the roll without excess material unraveling from the roll.
Abstract: The resent invention provides a locking fondue assembly including a pot assembly, a stand assembly and a burner assembly. Each assembly securely connects during use minimizing operator risk and increasing operator convenience. A pot lids locks onto a fondue pot and minimizes the risk of hot liquids from escaping. The fondue pot removably locks into a stand assembly and includes thermally distanced legs allowing immediate positioning on available work surfaces. A weight burner base assembly lockably secures a burner and minimizes the risk associated with a top-heavy fondue assembly.

Abstract: The present invention provides a bench top grill assembly that includes a rigid continuous grill body, a grill grate removably covering an upper opening, and a fuel element receptacle or container removably positionable in the grill body through a lateral opening dimensioned to closely receive the container. A safety handle projects from the fuel element container through the lateral opening away from sides of the grill body so that the handle does not become heated during use and may be safely gripped. A support table with multiple dimensions, forks, and condiment dishes increase the convenience of the bench top grill assembly.
Abstract: A baking dish includes a generally shallow platter made of ceramic material suitable to withstand a baking environment and having a baking surface defining a supporting plane on which a baked product can be made. A substantially upright continuous wall in the form of a ring generally conforming to the shape of the baking surface is provided that has a height dimension when supported on the baking surfaces relative to the supporting plane to define a generally cylindrical space for receiving and containing a food product to be baked. The platter and ring have substantially conforming peripheries. A laterally extending bead or a protuberance extends about the periphery of the platter and a deformable engaging member in the form a peripheral lip is provided about the periphery of the ring for removably attaching the ring to the platter about the periphery and for providing a generally sealed connection at the mating surfaces of the platter and wall of the ring.
