Innovative Culinary Tools are
Cuisinart's Signature
Julia Child let people in on the
Cuisinart secret and so did James Beard. They were among the first
culinary experts to hail the food processor as a revolutionary kitchen
appliance when it was introduced to America in 1973 by the late Cuisinart
founder, Carl Sontheimer. They saw the food processor as a quick and easy
way to make fine food and healthy dishes.
Under management from Conair Corporation
since 1989, the legacy is alive and well. Today, Cuisinart is a
universally recognized name, endorsed by culinary connoisseurs such as
Jacques Pépin and Hubert Keller.
