"Janet" star star star star star This review is for an older version of this product I used the Flavour Injector without the 'needle' to draw the crosses on the Hot Cross Buns I made this year... a bit of fiddle to load the paste but the results were accurate and most effective - cleaned up easily afterwards too
"Flavour Injector" star star star star star Purchased this product last week at the full price(just my luck) However, excellent product well made and does the job for anyone with a little hint of knowledge. Most reviewers seem to have a problem with using this item to inject jam into doughnuts! Why! Simply warm your jam(preferably seedless for obvious reasons) add a little lemon juice to set the jam once injected into the doughnuts. Unscrew the handle device, fill with jam from the top end, fill with jam/lemon juice mixture and away you go. What could be easier than that? Thanks for reading.
"great but not for cakes" star star star star star_border This set is extremely well made and would no doubt do a grand job of injecting into meat to tenderise it but I bought it with the idea of feeding the Christmas cakes. Unfortunately the nozzle gets bunged up with the cake mix and so the liquor does not pump out easily! Even poking a pilot hole in the cake first with a skewer the nozzled still bungs up. It is also not easy to see how much fluid is going in and I ended up with parts of the cake very tipsy and other part with hardly any - but couldn't tell until the taste test! It is a lovely solid injector with two different size nozzles but not the answer for the annual 'feeding'; best use a small skewer to poke a hole and then use a small 5ml medicine type syringe (i.e. no needle) which is easy to see how much is being administered. How about making up a kit for us as it is not always easy to get hold of small diameter skewers and small syringes! support_agent A note from the team Thanks for placing your review.

"Flavour Injector" star star star star star_border I bought this to use primarily for meat and used it twice. While it is straightforward to use, I found that it did get clogged, despite blending my herbs finely, with some olive oil. The marinade did run through the meat though (you could clearly see when the meat was cut) when I got it through (it wasn't the one-handed job in the photo though!). Cleaned up very easily.
"Disappointing" star star star star_border star_border I bought this to feed my xmas cake but find that the nozzle gets blocked up so renders it totally useless for this job. I see a previous reviewer has also found this. Waste of money for me as I can't see me using this for any other job. support_agent A note from the team Thanks for your feedback.
