We love the piggy canister set seen on Food Network’s “Down Home with the Neelys” so much, we were inspired to come up with some piggies of our own. Our charming “Lil’ Piggy” Ceramic Measuring Cup Set (who we have affectionately named Bakin’) includes 1/4-cup, 1/3-cup, and 1/2-cup measure that conveniently nest in Bakin’s body, which is a 1-cup measure. The lid is little Bakin’s cute face, with long-lashed eyes blissfully closed over her sweet stub nose (reveling in the smell of freshly baked cookies, no doubt). Asymmetrical, folding ears add character while providing a functional grip for lifting the lid, and an endearing curly tail adorns Bakin’s back. Hand-finishing gives each of the Lil’ Piggies a vintage, artisanal feel, such as the detailed script that label each measuring cup and the adorable piggy decal in the base of 1/4-cup measure. This exclusive set is perfect for any baking or measuring need and, of course, Bakin’ is happiest when in the company of the rest of her family, the 3-pc. Ceramic Lil’ Piggy Canister Set (a.k.a. Dad, Orson; Mom, Pearl; and big brother, Jr.).

The Lil Piggy Measuring Cup Set is not only perfect for your own kitchen, it'll also make a fabulous gift for any lover of animals and baking. The soft pink hue captures the radiance of a newborn piglet perfectly. If you've ever been in the presence of a precious newborn piggy, we're sure this set will channel those nostalgic moments and make you squeal with delight.

Each of the cups nests within the next one that's larger in size. You'll never have to worry about finding misplaced measuring cups, because these babies remain safe in Bakin's belly. Even if you're not a baker, this delightful pig is still ready to amuse and entertain.

You can strategically place him atop of any nook in your kitchen without ever actually using him to cook. He's perfectly content to sit and be admired by any passersby. He also has the power to inspire. You may declare yourself a wreck of a chef, and assume that pots and pans will explode in your kitchen. However, spending a few days with such a pig as a house guest may eventually ignite plumes of jealousy. After all, if a pig can bake, surely you can as well!

When giving this piggy as a gift, consider bundling him up with other piglet accessories, such as piggy kitchen towels and a decorative sign to hang on your kitchen wall. What's amazing about this ceramic set, is that it's an instant eye catcher. It commands attention, and inspires the inner decorative spirit.

Cute pigs but are they accurate?

by Cheryl, CO  
February 29, 2012

I gave these to my sister, and she loves them -- to look at, but not to use for actually measuring. She says none of the cups are accurate as far as measurement...

Cute thought but do not use them

by Sara, CA  
December 23, 2011

I bought the canister's and the measuring cups as a gift. They arrived right away which was nice, however the material is "cheap" they do not hold up to usuage at all.

I bought the set as a gift for my sister and the first time she used the measuring cup it chipped!!! What a joke!!!

Better buy at Big Lots than from the web at least you know your buying cheap stuff.

Disappointed!

by Jean, CA  
December 31, 2011

This is a really cute set but not really functional at all. Since there are no handles, it can be difficult to measure out anything with the inner cups. Flour was especially difficult! It's a very cute set and I'm disappointed that it doesn't work as well as I would like it to.

This piggy set is so cute! It seems more for display because it is so fragile. It's not very practical but I love it.

These went along with the cannisters to my mom for Christmas. She has them on the shelf over her stove and really likes the whole set of cannisters and measuring cups. They reallly decorate a kitchen.

It's very cute, but I do think it was over priced for what I received. The pink on the pigs was spotty & looked faded. Words on the cups were not completely filled in. Disappointed!!

Love, love, love my Lil' Piggy Measuring Cups! They are so cute and they save space since they are nesting. I could hardly wait to use them for my holiday baking. I think I'll purchase another set as a gift for my sister.

Lil' Piggy Measuring Cups

by Tina, VA  
December 22, 2011

I ordered this as a gift for a friend who loves pigs and loves to cook. It was great to receive the email advertising this product or I would not have known about it. The ordering process was very easy and the package arrived quickly. When the measuring cups arrived, they are adorable! I will be giving them to my friend for Christmas.

Piggy Heaven

by bonnie, KY  
December 23, 2011

I purchased this item for a wedding shower and decided to also treat myself to one- I was not disappointed- I love having the pieces by the stove for quick use without having to pull the measuring cups out of the cupboard. The set has a lid that fits perfectly on top keeps the interior cups clean and ready to go and its small size looks great in my tiny kitchen. The pink color tone was exactly what I wanted a ceramic pig to look like- not too red and not to washed out. Although, this was an "impulse" purchase, it has been a great one and I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this item as a gift again.

what a charming set of measuring cups. They look great as well as being functional. Everyone has commented on the ' unusual' when they open the cabinet door. would be an easy and useful accessory to collect for the cook that has everything.

Hidden surprise.

by Donald, AZ  
December 24, 2011

This winsome set of measuring cups is a handy addition to the canisters that you already bought...right? Yes, this lil' piggy finishes the family when you purchase it with the canister set. Admittedly, without handles and not being as resilient as metal or plastic, you need to show a little gentleness when you measure in order to make sure you don't send this lil' piggy crying "Wee, wee, wee" all the way home. And the hidden surprise? It's in the 1/4 cup.

I love the measuring cup idea, but I actually bought this to use as a salt pig. I have been wanting one for a long time that looked like an actual pig and had a lid. Take the measuring cups out and it works great! And matches the canisters we bought perfectly!

by Catherine, MO  
December 31, 2011

This is not only adorable to sit out as a cute counter top piece but it is also right there available to use for measuring, exact measurments. Everyone has asked me about them, they are so easy to use and clean. I am going to order several of these while they are on sale now so I will have them for my friends gifts throughout the year!! Thank you for having such a large amount of not only recipes but also supplies in the "store" section. I have bought a large amout of items from you and I have never been dissappointed!!

by Diane, IL

I like that they are nesting cups. I keep them right along side the canisters for quick measures. No one can tell they are a set of cups. Very Clever!!!
