The kit makes 12 donuts, and includes chocolate icing & sprinkles to decorate. All the food ingredients the donut maker comes with are also made in the USA. Via Chip Chick at Entenmann’s Donut Maker

We’re always on the look out for the latest kitchen robot, and this robotic wet or dry mop bot navigates autonomously through a room and methodically cleans hard surface floors. The robotic cleaner uses widely available dry electrostatic or premoistened cloths that attach to the bottom of the robot and collect dust, dirt, and hair as the device courses linearly through a room or moves back-and-forth in a traditional mopping motion. Now we just need to get rid of our obsession with having a rug in our kitchen, and move to a bare floor so mop bot can do all the cleaning. At The Autonomous Wet/Dry Mop

The Buechele Phonix is a stove top design that has a retractable hood. There are two sides to this design - on one side there’s a recirculating vent, the other, a warmer. On the back? A blackboard for leaving notes to those people in your kitchen life. We love the simple yet functional design paired with actual cooking action instead of a single cooking function that seems to dominate the design. Via Gizmodo at Beuchele

I love an appliance that multitasks, and this Magimix cuisine system seems to be all the rage in food processors/mixers right now. The Magimix is a food processor, mixer, citrus press, juice extractor, mandoline slicer, grater, mini chopper, and blender all in one. Is that all? It can’t walk the dog and put the kids to bed? It comes with a double blade and discs, a dough blade, 3 preparation bowls, spatula, storage case, storage holder, citrus press, cream whipper, and juice extractor. At Magimix Cuisine System
