1. A cleverly designed pancake dispenser bottle so anyone, no matter what their age or culinary skill level, can quickly and easily whip up some perfectly formed flapjacks. Although feel free to get creative with other fun shapes too.
2. A frozen dessert maker here to make your (dairy-free) dreams come true by transforming frozen fruit into a scrumptious soft-serve–like dessert!! Reviewers rave about the fact that you needn't add anything but the fruit itself to end up with a sweet ice cream-like treat, but if you do add other ingredients, the possibilities are really endless.
3. A set of dino ice pop molds for a ~cool~ way to make snack time more fun. Kids will love them...but so will adults.
4. A bottle of Mike's chile-infused hot honey to add a kick of sweetness and a touch of heat to your culinary creations. Things reviewers love it with: fruit salad, burgers, french toast, chicken, and...coffee??
5. A *crab-tastic* silicone spoon holder that clips to the pot lid and quite literally pinches the utensil in place with its cute little claws! Yep, this is a need not a want.
6. A cold brew coffee maker if you like your coffee cold and strong but are sick of spending $5+ every morning at the local coffee shop. With this, you can quickly whip up your own cup and get a head start on the day!
7. A pair of glowing lightsaber chopsticks so you can unlock some Jedi take-out moves. ~Use the force~ to pick up those sushi rolls!
Check out a TikTok of the light saber chopsticks in action.
BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord loves these: "As you can see from the above GIF, I bought these for myself, and I love them to pieces. TBH, I use them as decor every bit as much as I use them to eat. Sometimes I just keep them in my work area to light them up during the day to feel fancy. They toggle back and forth between a bunch of different colors, like red, blue, yellow, purple, and multicolor, so you can either make them match *or* have a red and blue one together and bring ~balance~ to the Force."
Promising review: "The chopsticks are very durable, and the glow is bright. They're a bit bigger that I expected — but very pleased nonetheless with the product because it serves the purpose and is entertaining for kids, right up to adult Star Wars nerds. It also made the perfect gift for my fellow Star Wars nerds. I've been too busy playing with them rather than using them to eat food — but hopefully that will eventually happen before the batteries need changing." —Anthony

8. A jar of chili onion crisp bursting with so much umami flavor and savory spices you'll quickly understand why folks add a heaping spoonful (or two or three) to just about every dish they make. Sure, the other condiments are great, but this one is divine. 🤤

Here's what BuzzFeeder Britt Ross says about this chili crisp: "Ever since my sister introduced me to this life-changing condiment, I've slathered it on pretty much everything I could think of — from roasted vegetables and noodles to seafood and popcorn. It's got a kick, yes, and while I'm a big fan of spicy food, the thing I love most about this chili crisp is that it also has great flavor that doesn't get overpowered by the heat, which happens with so many other spicy sauces. That deep savory flavor comes from ingredients like fermented black bean, shallots, mushroom powder, ginger, and seaweed, so it's no wonder it's become my go-to pantry staple when I want to zhuzh up my dinner. PS: Some people even swear by it as an ice cream topping!"
Promising review: "This sauce is SO delicious! Not too spicy and the crispy crunch of the tiny black beans adds a great texture. VERY flavorful, adds an extra special something to anything you put it on! I’ve put this on veggies, jasmine rice, chicken…it’s super versatile and I’ll always have it in my fridge! DELISH!!!" —Candygrl5
Price: $14.99 (available in three sizes and an extra spicy version)
9. The Unofficial Disney Parks Cookbook, a truly magical collection of recipes featuring your fave park specialties, like classic Dole Whip and Mickey pretzels.
10. A TikTok-famous veggie chopper that'll make slicing and chopping all those veggies a piece. of. cake. The bottom part even acts as a storage container too!
Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action.
Promising review: "I finally decided it was time to give one of these a try. I always keep chopped bell peppers and onions in my freezer to have ready for fajitas, chili, etc. I dreaded the job of chopping everything so much that sometimes I would even have to throw away bell peppers and it went bad before I got to them. So, for the loss of all of those peppers, I decided to compensate by getting one of these. What would take quite a while to do in the past now just takes a few minutes. And all of the pieces looks so uniform and will cook so much more evenly! I wish I would have done this so long ago!" —Paula Bond
Price: $23.99+ (available in three colors)

16. An Oxo microfiber dusting wand since it's the perfect size and shape for getting at all those practically impossible-to-reach spots, like under the fridge and stove.
17. An Instant Vortex Plus air fryer to whip up delicious foods with practically just the touch of a button. (Seriously!) Plus, it can also broil, roast, dehydrate, bake, and reheat just as easily. Wowza!

20. A sandwich cutter and sealer, AKA a DIY-decruster, if your kid has inherited your genetic childhood aversion to crusts. We all remember how great those "Uncrustable" sandwiches were, and now you can make your own right at home!

25. An electric warming plate because drinking lukewarm coffee or tea is simply never the vibe. With three temperature settings, this will keep your beverage at the *perfect* temperature all day long (and will even shut off automatically if you want).
26. A stain remover gel so you can clear out all the gunk and grossness from tile, sinks, grout, and more with absolutely zero scrubbing on your part. Seriously! Just squeeze this on, and within 6–8 hours, you'll have restored your kitchen to its former sparkling glory.
27. A garlic press that works through a gentle rocking motion rather than by loading the cloves in and smushing the garlic out (like more traditional presses). Why is this design far superior? Well, it's not only way easier to use but also to clean. And it comes with tools for peeling off the shell and scraping the minced garlic off the surface!
