HIC Kitchen Souffle Ramekin, Fine Porcelain, For Baking Custards, Souffles, Side Dishes, And Desserts, 6-Ounce Capacity, Set of 6

Great feeders for pet birds and other uses as well.

These are very tiny ramekins (top lip is 2 1/8 inches across, outer edge to outer edge, 1 7/8 inches inner edge to inner edge; it stands 1 3/16 inches high), which is what we were looking for. We use them as water dishes for our pet mouse. They're glazed/sealed all over, except the bottom, which is unfinished. The unfinished bottom provides traction so the cup doesn't slide as easily, but it also is porous and slightly textured, so I could see it staining or being difficult to clean if the cup was placed on anything oily or something else that could be absorbed. The smooth, glazed interior is very easy to wash. I wash them by hand. There were no chips, cracks, or other blemishes in the cups or their finish. The set of mini ramekins we received was well-packaged for shipping, so they arrived safely. They were sent in a fitted cardboard box, with six snug-fit compartments to separate and hug each cup. Overall, very pleased with the quality, price, and functionality of this product.

Order was filled perfectly with no damage to the product. The ramekins were received in perfect condition. The Amazon site was easy to shop in and the price was right.

I originally got 1 set of these (total of 6) because my 6 Greyhounds are not only all special needs' and on prescription medications but they are all geriatric now with additional old-age-related aches and pains, so the AM and PM meds for each one differs as well as differing in dosing. I had been using cereals bowls for the counting, sorting, crushing and eventually pouring the medications into the food bowls once all the meds were distributed correctly into the cereal bowls. However, with 6 dogs, although the cereal bowls allow easier access if I get the wrong pill in the wrong bowl and I can see them all better, those sized bowls get cumbersome and take up tons of room which I don't have in my kitchen. And when it is meal time, the dogs know it and all gather 'round Mommy preparing the food so I can forget prepping, measuring, counting, documenting who got what pill and when they got it while standing at the kitchen table and then having to move all that mess over to the counter where the actual food bowls are waiting and dumping the right pill contents into the right food bowl without spilling, tripping over a huge dog or just messing up. That just isn't going to happen. Ok, back to using cereal bowls: they tip over or, in reaching for something, I flip them. The pills I've already doled out go flying and if they hit the floor, the wrong dog could get the wrong pill or the wrong dose or they gobble a pill they shouldn't have and now because I don't know the interaction with their own pills, I can't give them what he/she is supposed to have. When the cereal bowl trick didn't pan out, I tried used prescription bottles but those were too tall, too narrow (not to mention a bit ugly)to always get the pill in the one I wanted when they were lined up and the same thing happened. I then tried the little plastic measuring cups that now come on all of the larger sized laundry detergent containers but, once again, they just seemed too light even though they were pretty much perfect in size and height. That is when I realized I needed something very short, a bit wide and heavier than anything I had been using. Bingo. I ordered 1 set of these small ramekins and they are perfect. I used 99-cent nail polish in 6 different colors to color-code each one for the individual dogs. Not very hard considering they sort of have colors assigned to them anyway: Fantasy is white and brindle and has a bright purple coat and purple collar/leash, Rambo - well, he's a black Greyhound but his color is Red, Becky-Gator (ok, ok, I didn't choose that one: it was her racing name) - with a name like 'Gator' you just know her color is green. So, you get my drift. Anyway, these are great. If I was making dessert, they would be much too small but for my initial purpose, I couldn't have chosen better and the price cannot be beat. I'm back for a second set just because throughout the day I find myself using the 'dog pill ramekins' for a gazillion other things: flameless tea lights (during the holidays), chopped/crushing fresh herbs, measuring wet/dry ingredients for cooking, baking. My only disappointment in them is that they don't stack - at all. Nope. Not like the picture so don't get fooled by that. I'm sure there are ramekins available that do stack, but trying to get two of these to stack just results in failure and loud clanking when the top one slides off the bottom one. Suggestion: if you want to stack these little jewels, KEEP THE BOX they arrive in. It has separators in it so each ramekin has its own slot with a thin piece of cardboard in between them. (Picture a case of wine: those thin cardboard separators that keep the bottles from clanking together in transit. The ramekin box my first set came in is almost square so you can stand it up or lie on its side and it doesn't take up much room either way).

These work well

I bought these for making creme brulee, and they've worked great. They handle high temperatures and go from the fridge to under the broiler or kitchen torch without any issues. They're also quite sturdy -- after bringing creme brulees to a friend's house, I ended up carrying the empty ramekins around in my backpack for a day with minimal padding, and they didn't break or chip. Most of the negative reviews I saw before buying these mentioned the packaging and the labels on the inside. The ramekins I received were securely packaged for shipping, so I had no issues on that front. The labels on the inside are in fact affixed with an annoyingly strong adhesive, but that's a one-time hassle and not worth reducing the rating for. If you have any trouble getting the adhesive off, I recommend peeling off as much as you can to start, then soaking the ramekins in hot water, then scrubbing with a soapy scrubber sponge until the adhesive pills up and can be scrubbed or scraped off. I was able to get all six cleaned off in just a few minutes.

Love the Ramekins! Perfect for rice pudding, jellos etc. definitely recommend them!

I love these ramekins! I have 4 oz size containers and they’re great, but the 2 oz size ramekins is perfect for condiments!

Excelente producto

There was a slight hiccup in the international delivery but it was resolved very quickly by the seller! Recd the pdt much earlier than expected n in very gd condition! Love them as its of very gd quality. Yes, the sticker was inside the ramekins but i cld easily peel them off. Peel them off b4 u wash them as once in contact with water, its harder to peel off n will be sticky. I hv already made lava cake with them n it turns out really well! Highly recommended!
