Rachael Ray Ramekins Dipping Cups, 10-Ounce, Orange

I used one for sandwiches with au jus and it worked great. Meal took less then 8 minutes to make. The size was generous enough to dip without spillage. The handles made it easy to hold with hot au jus in it. I made three cups of au jus using Mccormick seasoning and poured the amount I needed directly into the ramekin. I would not have been able to secure such a good hold on the ramekin had it not han handles. Carry one handed from the sides was easier than holding from the bottom so for me the handles were functional. Also made placing on a white ware plate and moving it around as needed effortless.I made sandwiches by heating up deli thin meat in nonstick pan and placing Swiss cheese on top. The meat was so thin heat transfered very fast and didn't really need to cover with glass lid to melt the cheese. I would say 4 minutes at most and didn't have the heat very high.I made the au jus using powdered mix. Directions called for wishing for maybe 10 minutes but I started by placing 2 cups water on high in pot and mixing powder mix in 1 cup water and my single serve blender cup. 3 pulses blended a concentrate as the powder dissolved rather easily. I then added concentrate to pot and it seemed to instantly mix. I let it heat up and hand wicked to catch any lumps but surprisingly there weren't any. This is my favorite way to make instant gravies but it's so quick and complete. Cleanup is a cinch and you don't get lumps. Sometimes the edges of my pots get gunky from mashing up gravy lumps but this prevents it so I get a good gravy and clean pots that I don't have to scrub later.They don't really stack but nothing really does when it's the same size as others in a set. Usually you would need a tapered bottom. The only thing close would be be nesting or stackable prep cups. You can get these to stack if you rotate them 90 degrees from each other but due to diffences in ceramic you find one way works better than the other. I got it to work but I'm not trying to be too picky considering the price and feel of the piece. I find this to be more of a casual item for quick snacks rather than something uber high end. If you do stack make sure it's in a way as to not scratch the edges of the bottom piece.I added a pic to show its stack ability compared to smaller glass and ceramic stackables.In closing this fit and went well with my white plate and the contrast was visually appealing being white and red but I want one of her matching serving platter plates or trays to go with this so I can have a go to just for quick meals and snacks.Affordable, attractive and very functional. Rachael offers some very nice ceramicware.

I bought these as I watched a video of Rachael Ray making a healthy version of Mac N Cheese with greens and I just had to have them. I love the pop of red color and the convenience of the single serve size these ramekins offer. They arrived on time and are as described. The price was fair at just over $16. The only con is that the instructions that come with these say not to be used under a broiler--however I threw caution to the wind and gave it a try as the recipe called for a crisping of the top of the Mac N Cheese in the recipe she provided using these exact ramekins. I did not leave them in the Broiler long (just 2/3 minutes) and It worked fine for me. Obviously I realize if they are to break or crack it would be because I didn't follow the directions but again I put it in quick and it came out fine. I mean who doesn't love Mac N Cheese with a crusty topping...unheard of! I have only used them once but they worked out great for me. They do not stack great but you can place one inside the other in a tipsy fashion. Overall I love these and I recommend.

I just love these cute, colorful ramekins! I bought 4 packages so that I could keep the yellow and red ones and have a total of 8 of them, while I gave the orange and blue ones to a friend so that she could have 8 of them as well. I wanted to color coordinate with my fiesta ware dishes and my Emile Henry bakeware. (The yellow ones match perfectly to my Emile Henry yellow bakeware. ) I make big casseroles than I use these cute little ramekins to freeze the casserole for individual servings. They come out of the freezer, sit on the counter for short defrost, then pop into the microwave like a charm! Sometimes I even use the defrost on my microwave if I am in a hurry. I cannot say enough good things about these. They are 10 oz size which makes for an excellent sized serving. I love the color and the square design as well! You won't be disappointed in your purchase. Thanks and God Bless!ADD ON:A reviewer stated that these do not nest for storage, but in reality THEY DO NEST. I have 3 stacked high one on top of the other in my cupboard. If I can figure out a way to insert a pic I will do so presently. Thanks!

There are a ton of ramekins to choose from on Amazon. I spent a lot of time choosing between the reviews and came up with these in the end. For the price and quality you really can't go wrong with these. The 10 oz size gives a bit of room for overflow(compared to smaller sized ramekins) and the little handles, while not that useful when hot, are just too cute. Of course you could thread skewers through the handles for use on a grill and they are fine when the ramekin has cooled off a bit, but I think they mostly add charm. The ramekins are well made and I have used them so far, on a camp stove, in the oven and in the microwave. I have washed them in the dishwasher as well with no issues. Recommended!

Muy bien

These ramekins are ideal for making individual servings of casserole dishes. I have been using them to make chicken pot pies. I can put them in the oven to cook a meal, refrigerate them and then, pop one in the microwave for a quick lunch. I love the colours. They wipe out easily to clean.

It was bought for a gift which will not be given until March.

They are awesome and arrived earlier than they predicted

Love the color, a little bit smaller than expected, added photo to show size, good for sauces and dips, but not much more.
