What is stoneware: Definition and 200 Discussions

Just received an email from rachaelraystore.com. She has stoneware! :( For example she has a covered 9x13 4.25 qt. 500 degrees, nonporous for $39.95 make in China. This is just one of the pieces. Wanted to alert you in case a guest at a show brings up the subject.

I just had a customer call me who made a blueberry dump cake in the DCB. It stained her baker pretty bad. I suggested she try a baking soda paste, but does anyone have any other stoneware stain removing tips??? TIA!

I just had a customer call with glue on their stoneware, when they opened it up from the box. This is the second stone i've received this complaint about. Anyone else hear of this? PC said it might have been done in the manufacturing process and they don't open the boxes. Not sure if...

Hi, Does anyone remember a Stoneware Green Glazed Crock? I guess it was in the New Traditions Collection. I guess it is a long cylinder stone. I am still in my first year and this is before my time! I have a HO Lead that got one as a gift recently (still new in the box) And has no Idea...

I have this friend, (when she is not driving me crazy). She has hosted cooking shows and was also a guest at some. Everytime she orders something it is a huge deal and acts like she is doing me a favor. We share a lot of other friends so I have to try to keep peace. Anyway, yesterday I was at my...

I have a Vanilla Glazed Stoneware Pie Plate that I just found in my basement in one of my old show crates! It was only used once and then I obviously forgot that I even had it. Needless to say, I would like $25 + $10 shipping. Email me at [email protected] if you are interested.

I just got a call from a customer who has an unglazed rectangular baker, about 2-3 years old (not sure on the exact date of purchase). She says the bottom of her baker is sticky/greasy, as if grease is seeping through the stone. She obviously can't clean it while it's hot, and when the pan...

A lady calls me last night and says that she has been referred to me by my stepsister. Cool! Her niece is getting married in two weeks and she would like to purchase something for her if I can get in here in time. No problem! She wants to buy her "a covered clay oven bowl" like she has. I...

Roomie, the stoneware hater, was kind enough to bake my b-day cake in a fluted stone and leave it to me to wash. After soaking and scrubbing, I noticed a film on it that makes it feel funky. When I pointed it out, I learned that the stone had been sprayed with cooking spray with flour. Short...

I sent out a big email in February about the stoneware sale and price increase for spring, hoping to entice some customers. I did get alot of orders but then received an email today from a customer who "missed the boat" and asked when the next stoneware sale will be. I admitted i didnt know when...

I have a customer looking for a 6-cup stoneware Muffin Pan, and a Large Round Stone without handles. If you have these available, please send me an e-mail at [email protected], with shipping to 25401. TIA

I have a customer that is looking for a few suggestions on what to use to broil steaks and fish on. My first thought is one of our stoneware peices. Since I've never broiled meats before (either baked or grilled them), I have no clue what to look for or to think of. The stoneware peices would...

I haven't been able to bring myself to use the cookie sheet yet (such a stoneware diehard). For those who have tried both, what are your thoughts on the cookie sheet as compared to the stoneware?

So last night I sat down and figured the difference between the February price of unglazed stoneware at 20% off and the new increase in price on Monday....WOW....some of them will have quite a savings! For example: the large bar pan is regular $31.00, Feb. 20% off is $24.80, NEW Spring/Summer...

Today I was greeted at my front door by a customer with a frown on her face and a small bar pan in her right hand. She'd baked a single pork chop on it last night and a place where the chop became "well caramelized" and dripped is now a deep brown. Boiling water wouldn't remove it. The...

I am sort of thinking of ordering a piece of unglazed stoneware for my next show, either to keep and use myself, or to sell or use as a gift. Stoneware generally does not sell at street fairs, and when I've bought extra in the past, it ended up becoming a gift for my niece or my sister...

How do you apply the 20% discount when you enter stoneware on PPP? It doesn's seem to do it automatically... Help!

What do you say when people says the noise/texture of the stoneware goes through them. I tell that they will get used to it and with time it goes away. It goes through some people. Well most people I have shown it to. Does anyone else have this or it just the people locally to Staffordshire?

I was about to buy these from the outlet, and they're gone. Anyone have one or two to sell???

I have a host at the end of the month who wants to do a stoneware theme show, since it is stoneware month. Any suggestions on what to do for this show?

Hello, I have an upcoming afternoon show and am looking for recipe ideas that is easy to make at a show but will have everyone wanting stoneware (since it's the guest special) I am still a new consultant and my biggest struggle is finding recipes that work nicely at shows. Thanks so...

Heard an AWESOME idea about a Stoneware SELL-abration for February. Anyone crafty out there have an idea for a flyer? You can drop the flyer and catalogs off at hairdressers, dr office, etc and see about orders. Kind of a pampered biz but with a twist. Just wondering if anyone had time...

Well, I tried to find everyone who has ever purchased stoneware from me from P3, since I'm putting together a book show. So much for technology. I got VERY limited info and of course, no phone numbers for the customers, even though that information was entered. Also, no past hosts who ordered...

I have a friend just call me and said she found a stoneware with a crayon mark on it. She is asking how to clean it off since we don't recommend to use soap. Can she use baking soda paste? Personally, I don't recommend to use the stone for cooking anymore since I'm not sure what kind of...

www.fantes.com/manuals/haeger-nat-stone-instr.pdf I wonder if Haeger makes our stoneware and look http://www.chefscatalog.com/catalog/search.aspx?scommand=search&search=Haeger%2bPotteries

Just an idea - used basis from info found elsewhere on ChefSuccess, but turned it into an event:chef:

Hey ladies and gents...just recieved an email with a great idea from my director. It is a stoneware workshop. And since February is 20% off stones I am definately going to do one next month. Here are the files I was sent! I am going to make a flyer invite. I will post it when I finish it.

I am a new consultant so I am not sure when we had the big bowl but I have a customer that broke the lid long ago and wondered if we have the lids???? I was wondering if there is something else he can use instead - maybe deep dish baker??? Any info would be great thanks!!!!

Anyone know what they sold for in the catalog? Or how much they were on the Outlet?
