Product Description
3 Solid Copper Beating Bowls 6 Inch, 7 Inch, and 8 Inch with 8 Inch SS whisk
Amazon.com Review
Scientists don't know precisely why, but for about three centuries cooks have known that whipping egg whites in an unlined copper bowl results in a creamier, more stable foam that's less susceptible to being overbeaten and dry. For making meringues, or for any dish that requires whipped egg whites, the three bowls in this nesting set, then, are unsurpassed. Use them also for whipping up the Italian dessert called zabaglione. The bowls are 6 , 7 , and 8 inches in diameter and have traditional brass rings so they can be hung flat against a wall. Bowls this beautiful can also hold fruit and vegetables on the counter. Because copperware is often used purely for decoration, the bowls come with a protective coating that prevents tarnishing. If they're used for cooking, the coating must be stripped off with any common lacquer remover. Accompanying the bowls is an 8-inch stainless-steel whisk that fits them perfectly. --Fred Brack

 Beautiful bowls June 21, 2007
These bowls are beautiful and the price is very reasonable. Couldn't find them cheaper anywhere else. They are a very nice addition to my copper collection. Shipping for the item was very fast.
Loved them!
Copper bowls with whisk March 28, 2007
The product itself was outstanding. The shipping service is another story: There had been a major storm in this area and the shipping company took it upon themselves to forward to a post office address rather than the physical address which I had requested. The product did not arrive as expected. It was a gift and I was in another Country. I advised both Amazon and the product company and the product company immediately delivered another set. When I returned to the States and went to the Post Office, I had a postal charge but I also had another set of bowls, which I will now see what I need to do to pay for the second set, hopefully minus the shipping charge.

 Scientists DO know ..... October 21, 2004

Obviously the main reviewer did not do a simple google search, because if he did he would know that scientists do indeed know why egg whites whip up better in copper bowls: check out chemistry.about.com/library/weekly/blcopperegg.htm (no www.). And the rounded bottom is also helpful for whipping egg whites, although not for setting the bowl on a table or counter.
 Beautiful - but round bottoms? September 20, 2004
4 out of 8 found this review helpful
I love these bowls! I got them out of their box to display them on shelves, and discovered their bottoms are rounded. I can't imagine why this would be useful in any way.
Unfortunately, I have no wall space to hang them.
They are beautiful, though!
