Abstract: Two or more plastic or fabric pastry tubes of the general type used by chefs for decorating pastry with icing or other materials or dispensing pureed vegetables or the like are each provided with separate nozzles which are semi-circular in cross section when two tubes are used and appropriately shaped when more than two are used. The nozzles are held together while the tubes are squeezed, thereby dispensing plural colored ribbons of icing or vegetables in closely adjacent designs. The nozzles may be held assembled by a ring. In one modification, spouts fit in the lower ends of the tubes and project therefrom as semi-cylindrical externally threaded projects held together. A first nut secures the tubes to their respective spouts. A second nut secures a pair of nozzles to their respective spouts. The upper ends of the tubes may be detachably held together by Velcro-like patches. The tubes are preferably of the conventional conical shape and may be disposable or reusable.

Abstract: A wire rack which fits in a pan within an oven supports poultry and meat during roasting so that grease and fat and particularly water within the body cavity of the dressed poultry runs into the pan. The rack consists of a first member having a round base and preferably eight wire members distributed around the base each in a vertical plane and curving inward and then straight up so that they define a cylinder. A ring prevents the eight members from spreading. A second member comprises a top ring and a plurality of depending wires each about half the length of the first-mentioned wire members and each lying in a vertical plane and extending inward and then straight down, the lower ends of pairs of wires being joined. The lower end of the second member fits into the top of the first member. An annular trough snaps over the top ring and is formed with small holes so that juices placed in the trough baste meat in the rack.
