Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Uniquely shaped like a pumpkin, this petite casserole by Le Creuset brings both beauty and versatility to any kitchen collection. The charming 12-ounce dish, which measures 4-1/2 by 5-1/5 by 3-1/2 inches offers just the right amount of space for dips, condiments, cheeses, and garnishes. Made from durable stoneware, the casserole provides a hard-wearing, impermeable finish fired at temperatures as high as 2192 degrees F. With a porosity level of less than 1 percent, the dish blocks moisture absorption, so there's no chipping, cracking, crazing, or rippling along the interior to worry about. Its non-porous construction also resists odors, scratching, and staining for hygienic use and optimal cooking performance. Even more, its high-quality enamel protects against metal marks and other damage, which means it's safe for cutting on with knives. Best of all, the colorful glaze on the exterior makes the dish fun to mix and match with other coordinating Le Creuset pieces (sold separately), while a neutral-colored glaze on the inside offers a pleasing contrast and an optimal palette for food presentation. And thanks to its unmatched thermal resistance from -65 degrees F to 500 degrees F, the dish moves gracefully from the microwave or oven (or under the broiler) to the table for serving to the refrigerator or freezer for storing leftovers. The casserole includes a secure-fitting lid--complete with a realistic-looking stem-like knob--to lock in heat and moisture while cooking, and its integrated sure-grip side handles facilitate steady transport. When finished, the casserole cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher.

This Teeny Tiny Pumpkin,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware 12-Ounce Petite Pumpkin Casserole, Flame (Kitchen)
is made in Thailand, not France as you would expect from a Le Creuset item. In the product description, it says, "Festive and fun. Welcome fall with the addition of these petite pumpkin casseroles to your set. Serve up individual servings of pumpkin soup or fill it with cinnamon for an added spice of life. Superior CAST IRON construction retains and distributes heat quickly and evenly. Limited lifetime warranty." This product is part of the Le Creuset stoneware line and IS NOT cast iron. The lid is not at all tight fitting, either. This casserole is very small. I know 12 oz isn't much, but I did think it would be big enough to hold at least enough food for an individual casserole serving. As a (very) proud owner of 16 pieces of Le Creuset, it saddens me to have to give this only 3 stars, but I had to deduct because of the poor fitting lid, it being made in Thailand, the incorrect product discription and the size. On the plus side, it is very cute!

You should probably try to see this in a store before buying online....,
By Wolf in Sheep's Clothing "Up Late Every NIght... (in the dry, hot, dark of the desert) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware 12-Ounce Petite Pumpkin Casserole, Flame (Kitchen)
Why? Because it is very small. And, it's not made of Le Creuset cast iron, but of Le Creuset stoneware -- a big difference.
That said, it's very cute and a great little pot -- I use a fleet of these to make little pumpkin breads. They're also good for pumpkin pudding (otherwise known as pumpkin pie without the crust....) On all the little Le Creuset "petites" you need to know that the capacity is highly overstated. If it says 12 ounces, assume 10. If it says 10 ounces, assume 8. And, if like some of the fruit shapes they give you 5" x5" dimensions, just know that they're including handles and lid-knobs and the volume is probably under 8 ounces. This is okay for single servings of desert, but that's about it. I think Le Creuset had an identity crisis about the time they started making this little "petite" line because the first ones were all really made of cast iron like the larger versions -- but then the second wave has been pottery except for the occasional slip baqck into cast iron. Being consistant is just too much trouble for them, I suppose.
