Thanks, just the recommendation that I needed.
What size cake will this hold?
How about cake carrier please?
Please review cake carriers.
They FINALLY decide to bring Tupperware into a test but this is the category you choose? Insert eyeroll here.
I have to completely disagree with your review. Your winner seems like it has terrific features, however, it only has three clasps. Which means when one fails, the carrier becomes completely worthless. It's all plastic where it needs to be strong, not metal. I got one as a gift and was excited, but it broke before I ever got to use it. It became a $25 piece of useless plastic. Nope. I donated it to a nursery school to hold paints and things.
Love these videos. Thanks for your talent and information
Judging from the pies I see, the solution is to leave the pie in its original packaging.
A review of something I really care about. PIE!
MY FAVORITE AMERICAN TEST KITCHEN HOST!
Best way to keep your pie safe is to stay out of the Bronx at night.
😉
I wish tupperware had stayed with the old design for pie takers, I have a few of them and they have ident for the pie pan and it has a tall lid. I even have one that will hold two pies. Great for when I visit family for the holidays. The new tupperware pie taker sucks.
Why no Julia or Bridget?
I’m not into pies or desserts; but I am TOTALLY into this channel. This channel is like a preemptive consumer watch-you can watch quality reviews on products before you buy them. I feel strongly that you listen to the comments as I have actually seen two different items tested that I asked for(I know I’m probably not the only one but it feels so darn good). So now, I request a different kind of review from what I have seen thus far; a charcoal briquette review. Yep, that’s right and here is why; I’m a kingsford man. Always have been and most likely always will but you know what? The navy exchange want carrying kingsford on one shopping day and I was making a PRIME RIB ROAST for my daughter on the weekend visit. The only thing they had was “Royal Oak-with real mesquite”. Since I sometimes use wood chips and the charcoal is typically three dollars cheaper at the store, I bought some. On the bag it said things like “lights faster” and “burns longer”…well this garbage should be called “Royal Joke” not “Royal Oak” as far as I’m concerned. I use a Weber gold grill, have been BBQing for 30 of the 45 years of my life, and never had a worse experience. It wouldn’t stay lit, it didn’t come up to temp, and my little girls prime rib was not able to be cooked so I thought about the ladies and gents at this channel. You have methods, time, and straight CLOUT with those who pay attention. Will you please consider reviewing briquettes…and include the “Royal joke” so they can see what I meant in the polite, heartfelt email I sent them as well. Your truly, a fan and slightly vindictive jerk. Btw, love your work and thanks again for the prep bowl review!

Could you do a show on how to hide pies so that they make it to the table in 1 piece?
Hey, what do you know. I already got that one.
Thank god your back
I’m not a pie person myself, but that pie case looks perfect for a big cake!
Please do a review of the best cake carriers.
I have always wanted a pie carrier; but it's so hard to find staff these days.
Love you guys, and love this channel. Your no-frills approach always feels fresh in this day and age.
Mmm pie!
Oh my gosh, my mom got me a rectangular deviled egg contraption that I've only used once. That pie holder would be far more functional.
YES! SHE'S BACK!
My girlfriend has no problem bringing the pie home.
*cough*Dollar Tree*cough*. Cause I'm a maverick.
