The Dripcut Syrup was a very popular item in the American line, and still is. Fostoria Glass made the base for the syrup; however, the top was made by the Dripcut Company of Los Angeles, California. The top dispenser is specifically designed to pour syrup quickly and as neatly as possible. With just one hand, one can release the top lever and pour syrup. The Dripcut Syrup – with its quick release lever – helps prevent a sticky mess from getting on your fingers and the table.
Other more fancy Syrups can be found in the American line; however, if you are seeking one that you can use on a more frequent basis, the Dripcut Syrup is a great choice. The name “Dripcut” was actually engraved on the slide plate mechanism on the older, original tops. If you are an avid breakfast lover that loves to serve pancakes and waffles, this beautiful Dripcut Syrup is a must-have.
The original tops were made out of metal, with a chrome plating. You can still find similar tops today and many will fit the original Fostoria glass syrup bottoms. Pay attention to the lid size and/or holding capacity noted by the manufacturer, as lids for a 6½ to 7 ounce container will usually work. Many of the newer tops are made out of plastic; however, there are some that are made out of steel, covered in a chrome finish.
