Designed by drinkware manufacturer Viski, the Rocket Cocktail Shaker (affiliate link) is a 24-ounce stainless steel drink shaker in the form of a retro rocket. I can already see myself holding a highly-anticipated countdown to happy hour. 3…2…1…blastoff!
This would be the perfect shaker for a space-themed bar. Or an actual bar in outer space. Do we have those yet? I thought the 2020s were supposed to be the future. This sure doesn’t look like the future. Where’s my hoverboard? Where’s my jetpack? I feel like every single 1980s and ’90s movie about the future lied to us. Curse you, Back To The Future II!
Could you imagine if James Bond insisted that not only his martinis were shaken, but shaken in a Rocket Cocktail Shaker? People would think he’s crazy. Or drunk. But they definitely wouldn’t think he’s a spy, so mission accomplished.
The Four Seasons shakers are quite literally perfection. Capturing four different types of seasoning, and embodying them in snow-globe-esque containers, Qualy Design’s Four Seasons shakers are just simply clever and adorable at the same time. Not only are they well designed, the absolutely witty wordplay makes the product even more lovable!
You’ve got four shakers that embody four different seasons, and hold four different seasonings. Designed for salt, pepper, dried herbs, and chili flakes, the shakers come with plants on the inside that pair well with the seasoning. The salt shaker has a fir tree, making the salt crystals look like snowflakes forming a rich white layer on the floor. The pepper shaker comes with a cactus inside, turning the shaker into an arid desert scene (make sure you use white pepper for proper effect!) For the dried herbs, you’ve got a regular fern, while the herbs look almost like a bed of aromatic grass, and lastly, the chili flakes shaker comes with a barren tree, making the flakes look like shed leaves in autumn. Sheer genius, isn’t it?!
Look past the video and at the Salids Shaker. It looks like a simple jar but it wasn’t designed to work as one. It does the job of a shaker, a tenderizer, an infuser, and a pretty basic blender. The jar comes with a spiked lid that that pulverizes your food, breaking it down slowly and allowing the herbs, spices, oils, and condiments you’ve also kept in the jar to infuse themselves into your food.
The BPA-free Tritan jar comes with measurements marked on one side, allowing you to use it as a measuring glass, and the Polypropylene lid secures tightly on it, armed with spikes that can break down tough foods, and mash softer foods. Just pour your food, oil, and spices in before giving it a quick shake, eliminating the need to use your knife or masher to meticulously prep your food. The Salids Shaker works great for infusing potatoes before roasting them, or to make a rich pulp out of those San Marzano tomatoes with olive oil and herbs before slathering them on a sourdough pizza base, or even for making a quick guacamole without having to go through the routine of getting your mixer grinder out (and cleaning it later on). To top the convenience of the Salids Shaker off, it’s dishwasher friendly too!
The unique Spiked Lid design of the Salids Shaker extracts the essence of your ingredients allowing them to infuse for richer, fuller, and more complex flavors in dishes and drinks- all it takes is a shake! Perfect for making delicious marinades, dressings, dips, or even a cheeky cocktail!
Originally the idea was inspired by cherry tomatoes; more specifically the inevitable struggle that arose from trying to prepare them for salads.
Chopping or piercing to avoid these annoyances was a time-consuming activity, which is why they decided to come up with the perfect tool for dealing with those little spheres of doom – a kitchen utensil that could pierce them quickly and easily.
However, in the process of testing and perfecting the Salids Shaker they discovered it had a multitude of uses that went beyond cherry tomatoes!
The sharp spikes on the lid activate a release of flavor while the shaking motion mixes – allowing these flavors to infuse. The result – fuller more developed flavor profiles.
Either protein shakes were not designed for conventional bottles, or conventional bottles were not designed for protein shakes. The bottle’s flat bases always end up accumulating this ring of coagulated protein powder that’s an absolute nightmare to clean. If you consume shakes (or even coffee), you’ll know what I’m talking about. An aesthetic eyesore, this particular phenomenon goes to become a breeding ground for mold and bacteria, making your fitness drink the very thing that contaminates you!
The guys at MOUS Fitness claim to have designed the perfect bottle. It uses an outer casing for gripping and stability, and comes with a round-base bottle that fits into the casing. Designed for shakes, energy drinks, or even fruit/veggie infused water, the MOUS Shaker bottle is great to carry on the go and even a dream to clean. The inner bottle is completely transparent, allowing you to inspect it for any drink remnants as you clean it. It comes with a rounded base, which means no more gunk because no more corners for the gunk to hide in. The bottle also has measurement markings on it, making it perfect to mix your drinks directly in. Designed to be thick, wide, and short, the bottle is great for gripping, stable when kept upright, and fits perfectly into any bag for you to carry around wherever you go. That’s quite a lot of thought put into a bottle, if you don’t mind my saying!
Today we have all kind of gadgets that pull double duty, but a salt shaker that is also a bluetooth speaker? Yeah, that exists. Obviously playing Salt and Pepa is mandatory. This product is pushing it. Pushing it real good!
This thing is called “Smalt.” Its makers are calling it a “smart centerpiece,” but it’s unclear what it does that makes it intelligent in any way. As far as I can tell, it’s a Bluetooth-enabled salt shaker with a color-changing mood light and speakers.
There’s another smalt problem: Don’t you want pepper on your table too? Smalt is coming soon to Indiegogo. Do you care?
He’s clearly 2017’s meme of the year! The Turkish chef took everyone by storm with the way he salted his meat steak with dripping swag. The Pinch salt and pepper shakers are designed to be gripped in a similar fashion, as compared to the way we grip regular salt and pepper shakers. These shakers pay tribute to the classic way of sprinkling a ‘pinch’ of salt on your food, but we can’t help but reference Salt Bae! Now it’s stuck in your heads too!
I love to cook, but I’m not one of those skilled chefs who can eye their ingredients. Unfortunately, all that pre-measuring adds plenty more time and work to my preparation. Designed for novice cooks like me, that’s where the Smart Shaker comes in handy!
This innovative cooking tool take the guess work out of measuring salt, pepper, sugar or spices. Whether it’s just a pinch or a tablespoon, users can preselect the required measurement from a convenient touchscreen located on top. Once selected, they can easily dispense the perfect amount with just a push. You’ll get it right each time, save minutes, and have less to clean up!
Sometimes the simplest of objects can cause unnecessary confusion. That’s the sentiment behind this twist on the salt and pepper shaker. Think about how many times we sprinkle a bit in our hand before applying to make sure we’ve got the right spice. The set is named “Obvious” for their straightforward approach to making each of the contents immediately apparent to the user. Each shaker uses text, color and a sliver size window to indicate its purpose and to make life just a little sprinkle easier!
Bombard food with flavor with Underground Toys’ upcoming Death Star salt and pepper shakers. The shakers are made of ceramic and are about 4″ in diameter. I guess a Starkiller Base shaker would be too big.
You can pre-order the shakers from Entertainment Earth for $15 (USD). Shipping starts this May.
It’s interesting how just a little bit of color adds so much life to whatever dessert you’ve got, from ice cream and cupcakes to brownies and fudge. And what better way to add rainbow-colored sprinkles and life to your sweet treats than with an equally festive sprinkles shaker in the form of a unicorn?
Quirky salt and pepper shakers like the Switch and logic-defying Vortex shakers have had their share of the spotlight for years. It’s about time sprinkle shakers took center stage, starting with this one.
Sass up your cupcakes with flair by getting the Unicorn Sprinkles Shaker, which retails for £7.99 (about $13).
