Bialetti: New Aeternum Ceramic Saute Pans Review and Giveaway-CLOSED

I love looking at pots and pans. Looking at them, you can just imagine cooking up something delicious. So when I received the new Bialetti Aeternum Ceramic Cookware line to try out, believe me, I was thrilled. I couldn't wait to see if they would pass ShowMeMama's test and receive my stamp of approval.

Let me give you a little information about the new Bialetti Aeternum Cookware line. They are eco-friendly and free of PFOA, PTFE and Cadmium. The pans are made of a new "nano-ceramic" water-based coating made of titanium and suspended silicate micro-particles. In Mama terms, it is one of the main components of glass. The pans are abrasion and scratch resistant. They provide a smooth surface for even cooking and easy cleaning, which I really love. I bet you will like them too.

The Aeternum Saute Pans, come in three sizes, 8", 9.5" and 11". Let me tell you, they are absolutely beautiful. The pans are a fire-engine red on the outside with a rubber handle, and have a white interior. I really love the color and these pans are just inviting you to cook. I love that they have three sizes because, while I am frying some chicken, I can saute some green beans in another pan too . Yes, more dishes to wash, but guess what, I am not washing the dishes. *Hint (Hubby's turn to wash dishes) LOL. Even if you do not like to cook on a frequent basis, these pans will invite you to cook more often, because the food looks so good in them. It sure gets Show Me Mama's stamp of approval!

Now, go browse Bialetti's site and see all their wonderful products. They even have a set of Pink Cookware supporting the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Trudeau 2010 New Collection Review!

Well I must say that I was quite excited when I received another package of goodies from Trudeau. I was notified I was going to receive a package of great products, and honestly did not know what it was. To my surprise, I opened the box and I was indeed impressed.

I received a wonderfully wrapped gift basket filled with the Trudeau 2010 New Collection of products. The gift basket included the following products:

The Evo- Hydration Bottle
Set of 3 mixing bowls-black/granite finish
Silicone single egg poacher with handle
Garlic Press
2 mills in 1-Pepper and salt mill
Perfect Mix-2 in 1 oil and vinegar bottle
Twist- Wine bottle screw cap remover
Aroma-Aerating pourer with stand
No Mess- Olive and cherry spoon
No Mess- Silicone pot lid rest

The Evo-Hydration Bottle is BPA free, guaranteed leak proof, has a soft grip for comfort, and all you do is easily push the nozzle with your mouth to activate and drink your water.

The mixing bowls have a non-skid, non-scratch base and are microwave and dishwasher safe. They are great for making a quick and easy cake mixture. The bowls also comes with a nozzle to easily pour the mixture in the pan without using a scoop. Love it.

The silicone single egg poacher is fantastic to whip up a perfectly cooked poached egg. Oh, and I just love the Garlic Press. It will be very useful when I cook East-Indian and Indonesian foods, where I use quite a bit of garlic. I always have to mash them up, which I didn't really like. The mill is great, you twist one way for salt and the other for pepper.

The Perfect Mix 2 in 1 oil and vinegar bottle, gives you three pouring options; oil, vinegar or the perfect 6/1 ratio of oil to vinegar. It is easy to fill, has a dripless spout and is dishwasher safe. The Twist wine bottle screw cap remover is perfect for wine bottles with a screw cap.

The Wine Aerating Pourer is BPA free and fits onto bottle neck for an easy, one-hand pour.

We also received a stainless steel, No Mess, olive and cherry spoon that hooks onto the rim of jars and is dishwasher safe. Finally there was a No Mess Silicone pot lid rest, that sits on the rim of your pot and allows all the condensation to drip back into the pot and not on your stove or counters.

Overall I must say we were completely impressed by Trudeau's New Collection, they are a must add for any kitchen and work as good as they look.

Now go and visit the Trudeau website and browse through their wonderful collection.
