Drosselmeyer Nutcracker

"The Swedish-made Drosselmeyer nutcracker is a design so obviously perfect it makes you wonder what took so long. A nutcracker that needs no effort, that does not spray fellow diners with shards of shell and that suits every size of nut, it's unique. Named after the toymaker in the Tchaikovsky ballet, the nutcracker is shaped like a cone and has an outer trigger which, when squeezed, cracks the nut inside. Simply brilliant." Food News.
