Cookset Moves From Fridge to Cooking Base to Candle-Warming Stand

Cookset Moves From Fridge to Cooking Base to Candle-Warming Stand

Hamilton Beach® designers have created a new cookset that has a style home entertainers love and the convenience home cooks demand. The Party Crock™ cookset has a detachable dish that is designed with convenient cooking in mind – especially for get-togethers. The 1.5-quart capacity is ideal for side dishes, appetizers or dips.

It’s a slow cooker with flexibility. Hosts can prepare food directly into the detachable crock dish well before the guests arrive and then refrigerate if needed. When it’s time to heat, simply place the dish on the electric base for familiar slow cooking.

The pleasant surprise is at the presentation. Home entertainers now can garnish their party table with color and candlelight. The Party Crock™ cookset includes a cast-iron warming stand that keeps the dish from getting cold by using the heat of a tea candle. A graceful, curved pattern cut into the warming stand allows candlelight to add that special ambience in the room.

The Party Crock™ cookset goes from fridge to slow cooking to buffet table at the busy cook’s convenience without using valuable oven or countertop space. The warming stand, with tea candle, eliminates the need to weave a power cord across the table or find the nearest outlet. There is only one dish to clean from prep to party to leftovers.

The stoneware model is a distinctive red with Eastern influenced lines. The cast-iron model is pumpkin-shaped in the matching color.



Versatile Dish – Dish moves from refrigerator to electric slow-cooking base and then to table or warming stand. One dish to prep with, cook in, serve from and to clean.

Candlelight Warming – Place warm dish on cast-iron stand and keep it warm using a tea candle placed on enclosed indentation. There is no power cord to fish across table or place near outlet.

Eye-Catching Design – Vivid red stoneware dish or festive pumpkin cast-iron dish stand out on crowded table. The cast-iron warming stand has curved openings to allow candlelight to flicker out.

Sized for Starters and Sides – The 1.5-quart dish capacity is ideal for dips, appetizers and sides.



Familiar Slow Cooking – Place dish on electric cooking base for countertop cooking that frees up time and oven space. Two heat settings to choose from, low and high – great for meal-timing.

MSRP – $29.99 (Model 33416) - in red stoneware; $49.99 (Model 33417) - pumpkin cast-iron dish.
