Baker's Torch

A baking torch might bring to mind crème brûlée or toasted meringue. (Both are lovely and reason enough to add a baking torch to your kitchen arsenal.) But just consider: individual ramekins of bubbling queso, blackened poblano peppers, bagels glistening with glassy cinnamon-sugar cream cheese, personal s’mores, puffed tortillas. Once you’ve seen what a 2400°F flame can do, you’ll view your culinary feats in terms of before and after this torch.

— Dramatic in a good way with a strong, steady flame
— Counter stand and child-proof latch for added safety
— Shorter and more manageable than other torches, with a comfortable handhold
