Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Le Creuset adds adorable charm to its time-tested construction with this winning little petite blueberry lidded casserole dish. Crafted from durable stoneware, the round, berry-shaped piece transitions smoothly from the freezer to the oven then makes for fabulous presentation at the table. Petitely-sized for individual portions of blueberry crisp or warm blueberry compote at the breakfast table, the dish holds 13 ounces when filled to the rim. This size also makes it a convenient vessel for serving chilled berry soup portions in summer. For added cheer and appeal, the casserole can be combined with similar Le Creuset casseroles shaped like strawberries, pears, or blackberries.
Like Le Creuset's other renowned stoneware pieces, the petite blueberry casserole is fired at a whopping 2000+ degrees and stoutly resists odor-absorption, staining, cracking, chipping, and crazing. Its true-blue enamel glazing is attractively deep in hue at top and bottom while lighter at the rim, and the secure lid features a cute, sculptural blueberry top. Measuring 5 by 5 by 5 inches, the casserole cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher and is safe for use in the microwave. --Emily Bedard

Cute as a button, and perfect for what they were INTENDED for,

Just wanted to counter balance the bad review by someone who must not have done the math when they read the product description. And since I found her review on multiple petite casseroles she made the mistake more than once. So, again I am putting in my $0.02.
I love my petite casseroles, I have half a dozen of them. They are perfect for baking individual entrees or desserts for people. Even for making lots of custom hot dips. With these you can cater to what people want in terms of types of fruit or vegetables, how much butter, what kind of sugar or spices. You just can't do that in a large dish. They hold up to lots of washing and even being dropped without so much as a scratch or any fading. I love my petite casseroles. Just be sure you know what to expect when buying something this size... You can't feed a family from one of these. So don't complain cause even the description of the item says they are perfect for dips for parties, hence the smallness :)

No cast iron in this berry,

This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware Petite Blueberry Casserole (Kitchen)
I was mostly pleased but a little surprised when my blueberry Le Creuset mini-casserole arrived. It's as cute as a bug, totally adorable -- though I haven't figured out what I'll use it for, I just like it. However, I'd somehow assumed it would have a cast-iron core with the ceramic as an overlay, as the big le Creuset cook-pots have. BAAMP! Nope! If I'd read the description more carefully, I'd have realized this. You can even put this blueberry into the microwave, because there is NO CAST IRON inside. It's too small and funny-shaped to use on the stove, so maybe I should have realized?
I can imagine a kitchen with a row of these crocks lined up on a high shelf or whatever (the punkin, the strawberry, etc. etc.) just for cuteness' sake! So could the designers at Le Creuset, I suppose.

Beware of lower-priced seconds,

This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware Petite Blueberry Casserole (Kitchen)
I've been wanting a Petite Blueberry Casserole, but $25 seemed too much for a purchase that's basically frivolous. Then one day I noticed the price was marked down to $19.89 for an unknown reason. The temptation was too great, and I bought one. When it arrived, it was actually larger than I expected after reading some of the reviews. (I've posted two photos of the casserole next to a soda can so you can get a better idea of the actual size.) But what I really noticed was the odd color band around the center of the casserole. The official photos indicate the center is supposed to be a lighter shade than the blueberry color on the top and bottom, but this was so light that the color could best be described as lilac. I hadn't seen a blueberry casserole in person before this, so I didn't know if it's supposed to be that color. But it doesn't look attractive at all. There was also a blemish that looked like a fingerprint pressed into the surface of the lid. I have returned the casserole for a refund. Interestingly, it wasn't eligible for a replacement -- only a refund. Now, I can't say for certain that there's a relationship between the reduced price and the reduced quality, but now I know that if something that's never been on sale is suddenly on sale, this buyer will beware.
