A small electric chopper for herbs, dressings and spices in batches too small for a full processor. Its bowl is compact by design, so larger jobs mean several rounds.

Overview
Not a full-size food processor, the Cuisinart Core Custom mini chopper handles small batches with a compact bowl on an electric motor base. Paddle controls switch between chop and grind, and the stainless blade reverses direction to suit each task.
Small-batch prep like pureeing applesauce, emulsifying dressing or grinding spices goes faster with two paddle controls and a blade that locks for pouring. Its capacity is the limit: family-size batches need a larger machine.
Who it's for
Suited to cooks who prep a handful of ingredients at a time and want quick cleanup. Batch cooks feeding a crowd will outgrow the bowl.
Pros and cons
- Chop and grind on separate paddles
- Blade reverses direction by function
- Bladelock holds blade when pouring out
- Dishwasher-safe bowl parts and lid
- Small bowl means several rounds for big jobs
- Warranty not listed
- Spec sheet says hand wash, copy says dishwasher
- Motor base must be wiped, not washed
Performance notes
Results come down to the blade direction the paddle selects, one for chopping and one for grinding, and to short pulses that stop food from turning to paste. A small bowl brings food back into the blade path quickly, so even pieces depend on not overfilling it.
