Ah... I didn't know that. Had a customer as for pudding basins many years
ago and she looked at me like I was an idiot when I didn't know what they
were. Then she saw the mixing bowls and said that was what she was looking
for.

I told the story at a family dinner. My brother found a set of bowls and the
box was labeled "Pudding Basins/Mixing Bowls" so he bought the for me.

I gave them away last year on the local Green Bee group as I never used
them.
