Eating at the table means serving dishes getting cold, unless you have some pretty hefty heating equipment. Well, no more.

The Magma hot plate has a ceramic core that, when heated in the microwave, holds the heat, releasing it gradually over the course of an hour. Just heat for 2 minutes, transfer to the table using the cool-touch silicone handles, and place the dish of food on top. The Magma hot plate will keep the dish warm for up to an hour, so you can eat and serve warm second helpings with ease.

Even better, you can use it to keep a stack of pancakes warm while you make more, or keep the teapot warm for a second cup. And because it's insulated, it will keep warm (and keep food warm) without burning you or the countertop. Magic? Just about.
