ABSTRACT:
A mixing bowl set is disclosed comprising nestable bowls (2,4), each having a radiussed sidewalls (8), and a downturned upper rim flange (14). The rim flange (14) has a lower edge 20 which is spaced apart from the sidewall (8) a distance which varies from a maximun at the rearward end (24) of the bowl to a minimum at the forward end (26). Accordingly, a channel (22) is defined below the rim flange (14) which is wider at the rearward end, sufficiently so to admit the digits of a hand, whereby making the rearward portion of the flange (14) a handle for the bowl. A pourspout (28) is provided in the forward end of the rim flange (14) and is configured to be entirely below flange (14). Accordingly, there are no projections beyond the rim flange of the bowl throughout its entire circumference which could interfere with the nesting of one bowl into a like-configured larger bowl.
