Viking Culinary Introduces Reversible Wood Prep and Carving Board
Clipper Corporation has added a Reversible Prep and Carving Butcher Block Board to its Viking Culinary product lineup. Made of Acacia, which is both aesthetically pleasing and renewable, this double-sided, multi-purpose board will help any home chef save time and space in the kitchen. It’s water resistant, affordable, durable, and stunning to look at.
This butcher block cutting board has three built-in prep bowls on one side. Each well measures exactly one cup for an easy and effective tool that makes food prep a breeze and reduces the number of prep bowls that need cleaning after dinner. The flip side of the board serves as a carving station with a juice groove all around the border to prevent protein juice spillage. The sides of the board features indentations that make it easy to carry from one place to another for serving. The double-sided nature of the board helps prevent cross contamination of foods during prep.
The dimensions of the board are 20 inches by 14 inches by 1.58 inches. With a beautiful finish, this product serves as an elegant serving platter as well as a cutting board with a surface that preserves knives from damage.
The board will be available late September at specialty retailers and online.
Capresso Promotes Iced Tea Maker with Sip & Save Social Media
A top-selling mainstay of the Capresso line, the Iced Tea Maker is trending because of its appealing promise to save consumers money while improving their quality of life. Capresso has launched an online Iced Tea Sip & Save feature that shows how much people can save by conveniently brewing custom iced tea at home versus buying it ready-made or at a café.
Iced Tea Sip & Save is promoted at Capresso.com, the Capresso blog, and Capresso social media. Capresso quantifies how much the average iced tea drinker – who enjoys an average of two servings a day – will save in a year by brewing at home with the Iced Tea Maker. It adds up to well over $1,000 per year versus buying iced tea ready-made, and over $1,500 per year versus buying iced tea at a café.
“This is a classic win-win for the consumer. You get the convenience of iced tea any time you want it, plus the ability to custom brew to taste and pre-brew into a beautiful glass pitcher that you can store in the fridge – plus you save money every day in the process. And the Capresso Iced Tea Maker is filled with features that make it an ideal choice,” said David Shull, Executive Vice President, Marketing and Communications, for JURA Inc.
The Capresso Iced Tea Maker can custom brew a refreshing pitcher of iced tea at the touch of a button. It brews directly into a beautiful 80-ounce glass pitcher with removable lid and easy-pour spout. Flavor enhancer adjusts brew strength from mild to strong taste. Removable permanent filter accommodates loose tea or tea bags.
Fresh or frozen fruit can be added to the pitcher for delicious gourmet tea concoctions. The Capresso blog and social media also offer easy-to-make recipes to inspire creativity and new taste experiences.
“This campaign is especially important to us because iced tea is no longer just a summer phenomenon. Our Iced Tea Maker sells strong all year. That expands our sales opportunity, and it adds value to the purchase decision for the consumer,” said Shull.

They called out its fast build-up to the ideal pressure level and temperature, and even heat distribution. This popular model also won in the Price-to-Performance Category, validating the practicality of premium quality design.
