Whiskware is a kitchen and grill brand founded in Utah in 2016. It is headquartered in Lehi, Utah.
The steel ball that rattles inside a BlenderBottle also mixes pancake batter, and that is most of the idea behind Whiskware. The Lehi company behind BlenderBottle announced the kitchen line in February 2016, after years of development and consumer testing, it said. Its first products included a batter mixer and a salad dressing shaker, each with a BlenderBall whisk inside.
The Batter Mixer holds up to 4 cups. You shake the ingredients in the bottle and the whisk does the work. The batter then pours out through a soft silicone tip that the company rates to 440 degrees, and the base comes off to serve as a stand while you fill it.
The Dressing Shaker uses the same ball and holds 2.5 cups. Its product page calls oil and vinegar "notorious frenemies" and says the BlenderBall keeps them mixed for up to an hour, which is longer than most frenemies manage.
The first glass version of that shaker was recalled. In March 2017 the company, then Sundesa LLC doing business as BlenderBottle Company, recalled about 48,000 glass Dressing Shakers in the United States because the bottom of the bottle could break when the metal agitator struck it. It had received 12 reports of breakage and no injuries. Owners were offered two plastic shakers for each glass one, and the Tritan plastic version was never part of the recall.
Most of the shop now is snack containers. Each set is three cups that twist and lock into one stack under a removable handle, and the smallest holds a third of a cup. Licensed versions cover Disney princesses, Star Wars, Harry Potter and Bluey, and the Barbie and Hot Wheels sets are the newest.
Whiskware's blog lists more than 60 uses for the containers that have nothing to do with food, from marbles to a temporary tooth fairy box. It sets one rule first, and it is a sensible one. Keep a separate set for the odds and ends, because "Food containers stay food containers."
The tools are designed in the USA and manufactured in China, the FAQ says. Orders ship from the corporate office in Lehi. The same FAQ notes that the BlenderBottle Company "aggressively protects its intellectual property rights," a sentence that sits a few questions away from the dishwasher instructions.
Teachers from pre-K through college get 25 percent off the whole site. That suits a brand whose snack cups, the product page says, fit into a backpack, and a company that started with one wire whisk in an Orem den and kept finding new places to put it.
Whiskware's Pancake Art Kit comes with two pancake molds, one shaped like a dinosaur and one shaped like a person.
