They were intrgduced at the recent’ Housewares Show here. Here's a quick check list, prepared by Monsanto Chem-
jcal Co.'s plastics division, of
what you can expect in kitchen convenience: A cake tray and cover that may be one of four useful
«things, including a punch bowl,
hors d’oeuvre tray or ice bowl. It's all. possible because the undersize of the tray is molded into sections around a center ring. This forms a sturdy nestling point for the upsidedown version of the cake cover. Jiffy Jug is a modern carafe designed first to mix and store frdzen fruit juices, but handsome enough to.serve as cocktail shaker. The snugly fitted
top is both measurer and tumbler. A- large but . lightweight
ladle, all in one piece, serves prettiest crystal punch bowl without ever breaking it. This is shown in clear crystal or ruby colors. The canister set bows to the provincial trend. One has colorful roosters decorating clear white containers. The latter are designed with rounded corners and crystal clear covers that have easy grip handles molded in the tops. : Even ye old gravy boat takes’ to modern ways in a colorful, lightweight plastic version. A tumbler and tote tray set has six ‘recessed holders for frosted tumblers in rose, aqua and crystal. Maple leaf candy dishes, individual serving bowls for dessert or salad in rich opaque
colors or sparkling transparents
