The Museum of Modern Art Design Store can’t get enough of these cute, socially conscious salt and pepper shakers—apparently, they’re flying off the shelves of their Fifth Avenue outpost. The sleek, modern contours of the black and white salt and pepper shakers express sentiment and the acceptance of difference with style and grace—perfect for anybody’s table top.

Jacques Torres is the self-professed Mr. Chocolate—and not since the days of Willy Wonka has anybody else made such a giant, flavorful splash in the world of candied confections. Jacques Torres Chocolate Haven is the Manhattan factory and retail store and the legendary chocolatier’s latest project. Visitors get to slaver away as Torres and his assistants make hand-dipped apricots with a chocolate faucet (recommended by Torres for any and every home) and other sweet treats. If you’re curious about the process of beans to bars, stop by and have a look.

Next time you get a craving for homemade baked goods, steer clear of the vanilla extract and try out Fiori Di Sicilia, which has been used for centuries in Italy to add an irresistible aroma to traditional panettone.

Bottles to boxes. Corks to screws. What has become of contemporary wine selections? Now before you start whining about the modern day grape massacre, check this out. DTOUR white wine is packaged in a cardboard cylinder that dispenses wine standing or on its side. It does the seemingly impossible: it stays fresh for up to four weeks once it has been opened. We can’t get enough! The wine has impeccable regional character, with “crisp-apple and mineral flavors on a medium-bodied frame,” according to Wine Spectator online. And according to its creators, a revolutionary red wine isn’t far behind. Suggested retail is $37 (less than $10 per bottle). FYI: The D in DTOUR stands for the dynamic trio of D’s who came up with the idea: “Dominique” Lafon (vigneron), “Daniel” Johnnes (sommelier) and “Daniel” Boulud (chef).

It’s the perfect companion to toast, muffins, Belgian waffles, yogurt or, our guiltiest pleasure, vanilla bean ice cream.

Good ol’ Garrett takes popcorn to delectable new levels. You’ll want to smuggle any one of these selections into a dark theater.

The possibilities are endless thanks to create-a-tin technology which allows you to mix and match your favorite combinations.

Most tea aficionados are lovers of loose leaves, but we all know how messy brewing can get.

It’s great for a breakfast by yourself, or a gift to your favorite solitary tea-drinker.
