Must-have Summer Appliances

Great appliances to help you make the most of the season. By Jennifer Allan

Summer is finally here: a time of long daylight hours, beach activities and amazing parties. A great way to celebrate this time of year is acquiring new appliances (through your registry or shower perhaps?) to help you enjoy the season to its fullest. There are so many cool kitchen items out there; you may wonder how you ever went through past summers without them.

Appliance Must: The Blender
A blender is the best way to make cool, frozen drinks for party guests or just you and your sweetheart on a warm summer night. They're also perfect for whipping up some yummy fruit smoothies to get you going in the morning; an awesome way to incorporate more fruit into your diet. Unlike blenders of the past, this new generation of styles is pleasing to the eye and easy to clean up! One key point is to ensure you find one that crushes ice.

Appliance Must: The Waffle Iron
The waffle iron provides more options than you might think. If having savoury waffles from scratch every morning isn¹t enough to tempt you, they¹re also great for small, intimate dinner parties. Consider this: top a freshly baked Belgium waffle with a scoop of ice cream, strawberry syrup and a few sliced bananas and you have one amazing dessert!

Appliance Must: The Juicer
Watermelon and fresh seasonal berries are abundant in the grocery stores, so why not grab some oranges as well and make freshly squeezed orange juice with a new juicer? It¹s a great way to start the day and the best way to ensure you are getting all the essential vitamins from your fruits. Plus, fresh juice takes your favourite fruity cocktails to another level!

Appliance Must: The Ice Cream Maker
This one needs no explanation. Having the ability to make your own ice cream anytime you want it makes this item a precious summer commodity. All sorts of delicious ice cream recipes are available to take advantage of too; no flavour is out of reach. Take note, this appliance goes very nicely with a waffle iron.
