Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Rosettes are deep-fried Swedish cookies sprinkled with sugar. Timbales are deep-fried Swedish cookies filled with fresh fruit or, in savory form, with hot creamed chicken, fish, or vegetables. Greeks call their version of these cookies diples: they are dipped in honey, chopped nuts, and cinnamon. Mexicans sprinkle their deep-fried cookies in sugar, cloves, and cinnamon. Inventive cooks can change cookie flavorings and vary pastry-shell fillings to create entrees or pretty appetizers. All of these possibilities (recipes included) come courtesy of this rosette and timbale set. There are star, floral, and maze molds to make rosettes and fluted heart, square, and round molds for timbales. Molds screw onto the double-dip handle for frying two at a time. Heat the molds in hot oil, dip them into a batter, then dip them into the oil again. Cookies or shells easily slip off the cast-aluminum molds. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Memory Wishes From The Past Come True, September 6, 2001

Arlene Boothby (Casa Grande, AZ United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nordic Ware Swedish Rosettes & Timbales Set (Kitchen)

I come from a small farming community, in the mid-west. My family was of German descent. The neighbor lady use to make these wispy cookies that are so thin and crispy that they just melt in your mouth. Also, when I went to my aunt's houses, many of them had these wonderful delights. I use to wish that my own Mother would make some of these cookies, but she would always say that it took a special tool that she didn't have and couldn't find.
Here I am, almost 60 years old. I ordered this special tool and now I am impressing all of my friends with these special treats. No one can eat just one. I must admit that it does take a bit of practice to turn out the beautiful rosettes. However, it is much cooler than heating up an oven to turn out the wonderful wish from my past.

5.0 out of 5 stars Friends will think you're a pastry genuis!, September 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Nordic Ware Swedish Rosettes & Timbales Set (Kitchen)

I have used this tool to make the rosettes. They are a wonderful light cookie that you dust with powder sugar. Warning: in our house they are gobbled up as quickly as they are made. They are deep fried so it is a job to be done by an adult, or teen age chef in the making. These cookies bring back wonderful memories for me, growing up it was mine and my sisters job to dust the cookies with the powder sugar. My older sister was allowed to make these pretty cookies, I was very envious. But, I did get to eat them! They are a wonderful addition to any holiday cookie collection. They are pretty, light and above all delicious! ENJOY.

This is one of the nicest accessory you can have in your kitchen! Make shells and fill with chicken or tuna salad that is very tasty and lovely to look at. I have used my Timbale for more than 20 years now and extremely pleased with it and plan on ordering additional to replace my own as well as gifts for others.
