And it even has little silicone feet, so it won't scratch up your non-stick cookware.
19. Some ultra-thin ice packs that'll be a ~blessing~ during the hottest days of the summer. Unlike the ice packs we may all remember from our youth, these are designed to fit inside lunch boxes, picnic bags, and coolers while taking up a teeny-tiny amount of space — which means more room for snacks and frosty drinks!
20. An oil mister, so you never have to deal with globs of olive oil ever again. The trigger is specially designed to give you a customizable stream of oil, too — pull it fast to deliver light mist, or pull slowly for a steady, even stream.

25. An egg organizer that'll make it easy for you to take out one egg at a time, without pulling the whole carton out of the fridge. The raised sides will help keep your oeufs from spilling out, and the transparent top is awesome at keeping track of when you need to buy more.

27. A pancake dispenser that'll help make Sunday morning brunch delicious and mess free. The easy-squeeze handle and shut-off valve mean you can dispense a precise amount of batter, and reviewers say it's great for making funnel cakes, too. Just make sure your batter is on the thinner side, or the inner valve may get clogged up.
28. This ice cream sandwich cookie cutter and press, so you can make your fave summer treat right at home. The moulds are extra high (for maximum filling), and when you're done, you can just toss them in the dishwasher. We love a low-maintenance gadget!

35. A silicone egg bite mould that'll help you make perfect little nuggets of protein, without spending big bucks at coffee shops. And if you're not really into eggs, you can totally use it as a freezer mould — the silicone lid will keep gross freezer smells at bay.
