If you’re on the hunt for the best gifts for bakers, you’re definitely in the right place. This fun gift guide is packed with baking essentials, kitchen must-haves, and a few fun personalized gifts they’ll actually use. These really are the perfect gift ideas for bakers that will have them whipping up treats (and maybe even sharing!) in no time.

Essential Tools for Every Baker

Hand Mixer – This mixer has 9 different speeds and has a case for all its attachments! It’s a baker’s dream come true!

Dough Scraper – A staple and thoughtful gift for the baker’s kitchen. It helps to divide dough, lift sticky dough, helps to clean the counter, and can even be used to get super-smooth sides on a cake when frosting it!

Digital Scale –  Because accuracy is everything in the baking world and requires a lot of precision. When the ingredients are weighed with a scale, it will yield superior results.

Flex Edge Scraper – This is an attachment that goes on your kitchen stand mixer, and one I use all the time. It’s perfect for all that frosting that is to be made and is also a great tool for thin cookie dough and compound butters.

Silicone Jar Spatulas – These are the coolest spatulas! They do everything from scraping jars to smoothing frosting on a cake to mixing hot ingredients (I’m looking at you, melted chocolate!). PS I’m in love with those soft pastel colors too.

Bakeware Must-Haves

Baking Sheets –  USA Pan Bakeware is a favorite brand of mine. They’re extremely reliable because they conduct heat well and won’t warp. Truly one of the best gifts for bakers because they’ll last for years to come.

Cake Turntable – If you’re giving a gift to someone who loves to bake cakes, then a turntable is a must! It’s sleek, stylish, and makes frosting a cake easy!

Silpat – I’ve talked about this beloved mat more times than I can count, but it’s one you can’t ever have enough of! Not only can you use it for baking, but you can move the whole mat and everything on it from the counter to the fridge or freezer to rest without messing up the dough! They also make a special mat for cookies and one for measuring out your pie crusts.

Personalized Spatula  – 1. Who wouldn’t want to receive a personalized wooden spatula? 2. Who wouldn’t want a heart-shaped silicone spatula? You can get both in this darling gift set!

Little Accessories – Big Impact

Silicone Bowl Scraper – Scrape out every last bit of flour, batter, and dough with this flexible scraper! It may be small, but it is mighty.

Oven Mitts – While they don’t seem like the most exciting gift, trust me when I say any baker would love to be on the receiving end of new oven mitts. Plus they come in so many fun color options!

Personalized Apron – Any baker will feel like a million bucks with this cute apron! The stripes are a total vibe.

Premium Ingredients

Premium Vanilla Extract  – The gift of high-quality extract is one any baker won’t take for granted! It adds incredible depth and richness to any baked good.

Gel Food Coloring – All bakers know that not all food coloring is created equal. If you want professional results, high-quality gel food coloring is where it’s at!

Bonus!

Elements of Cooking Cookbook – This cookbook is a great resource for anyone who loves to bake but may need to make some substitutions due to dietary restrictions.

If you’re on the lookout for a gift for the beginning baker in your life (or for yourself!) then you’re in the right place! The right baking tools can transform any beginner’s baking experience from frustrating to fantastic. In this gift guide I’ll share a few of the kitchen accessories and baking supplies that have helped me over the years.

Essential Tools Every Beginning Baker Needs

• Mixing Bowls – These bowls come in different sizes and will last for years to come.
• Measuring Cups and Spoons – Definitely baking tools every beginning baker needs. When it comes to measuring ingredients, you don’t have to get anything fancy. But you may want to consider gifting a set of dry measuring cups and a set of liquid measuring cups. There is a difference! Measuring spoons can be used for both for dry and liquid ingredients. I also love using this sticky measuring cup for ingredients like peanut butter or honey!
• Kitchen Scale –  When baking cupcakes and cakes, it really is best to weigh your ingredients. This will yield the best results! It will set any beginning baker up for success right off the bat.
• Whisk Set – Whisks are essential for mixing dry and wet ingredients togther, as well as creating smooth batters.
• Silicone Spatula Set – Leave no batter behind when you scrape the bowl with a silicone spatula and their flexible edges. They’re gentle enough to fold in delicate ingredients. They are also sturdy enough to handle hot temperatures in hot sugar mixes or melted chocolate.
• Baking Sheets –  USA Pan Bakeware is a favorite brand of mine. They’re extremely reliable because conduct heat well and won’t warp.
• Cooling Racks – Great for cakes and cookies!! And to be honest, I’ve also used it to put hot pie plates on.
• Hand Mixer – This mixer has 9 different speeds and has a case for all its attachments! It’s a beginning baker’s dream!
• Cookie Scoops – The more sizes, the merrier! These are essential for making sure cookies are all the same size. They’re also great for scooping out cupcake and muffin batter.
• Muffin Tin – Wilton for the win, always. These are tried and true muffin tins that are also great for cupcakes.
• Round Cake Pan Set – This set comes with 3 different sizes for 6 inch, 8 inch, or 10 inch cakes. Perfect for creating simple celebration cakes!
• Pyrex Clear Baking Set – I really like this set because it comes with a 9×13. Perfect for poke cakes. It also includes a square baking dish. Brownies, anyone?

Specialty Baking Tools

The beginning baker will consider these a real treat! They aren’t absolutely necessary for baked goods to turn out, but they will sweeten the whole baking experience!

• Stand Mixer – This stand mixer is a workhorse and will get the job done right.
• Mini Food Processor – A food processor is the best tool for crushing up cookies for a pie crust. It is also great for creating a flaky all-butter pie dough. You can even make nut butters.
• Silicone Baking Mat – This baking tool will take the place of parchment paper. If the beginning baker in your life is truly serious about their journey, this is a great investment for them.
• Flex Edge Scraper – This is an attachment that goes on your kitchen stand mixer. It’s perfect for all that frosting that is to be made. It’s also a great tool for thin cookie dough and compound butters.
• Offset Spatula – These aren’t just for frosting cakes! They’re an essential baking tool because not only can they be used to frost cakes and cookies. They can help release muffins from their tins. They’re also useful for spreading cake batter evenly, shimmying under rolled-out sugar cookie dough to transfer cut-outs to a baking sheet, or spreading jam or frosting between layers of cakes.

These gift ideas are guaranteed to elevate and enhance their baking experience!

Professional Baking Tools

I’ve been baking for well over 20 years, and have seen every gadget under the sun. Every gift idea in this guide is hand-picked and won’t sit in the back of the cupboard collecting dust. Rest assured that the experienced baker in your life will love these thoughtful presents!

Measurement Tools

Digital Scale –  Because accuracy is everything in the baking world and requires a lot of precision. When the ingredients are weighed with a scale, it will yield superior results, I promise. My favorite feature of this top-notch food scale is the pull-out display. It’ll be a lifesaver for any experienced baker trying to weigh ingredients in a giant mixing bowl!

Oven Thermometer – This gadget is all you need to ensure your baked goodies are perfectly…. baked! It’s rare that an oven is 100% calibrated, especially as it gets older, but that won’t be a problem thanks to this oven thermometer.

Back to Baking Basics

French Tapered Rolling Pin – When rolling out doughs, the tapered edges of this rolling pin will create the best dough. Why, you ask? It allows for even pressure distribution! With American rolling pins (the ones with handles) the pressure is focused in the middle, but the tapered design on this rolling pin eliminates thick spots in the dough. This makes it ideal for pie crusts and other delicate pastry doughs!

Cookie Scoop – I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it a million more times… if there’s one gift to give a baker, it’s a high-quality cookie scoop. The soft, easy-grip handle on this scoop makes scooping cookie dough a breeze!

Silicone Jar Spatulas – These are the coolest spatulas! They do everything from scraping jars to smoothing frosting on a cake to mixing hot ingredients (I’m looking at you, melted chocolate!). PS I’m in love with those soft pastel colors too!

Specialty Bakeware

Silpat – I’ve talked about this beloved mat more times than I can count, but it it’s one you can’t ever have enough of! Not only can you use it for baking, but you can move the whole mat and everything on it from the counter to the fridge or freezer to rest without messing up the dough! They also make a special mat for cookies and one for measuring out your pie crusts.

Cake Pan – If you want to really splurge for the experienced baker in your life, then this is what you’ll want to gift them. This cake pan is non-stick (thank you ceramic coating) but conducts heat evenly (thank you aluminum body). It comes in gorgeous colors and is something a baker might not choose themselves, which is why it makes an ideal gift!

Bundt Pan – This beautiful bundt pan is your golden ticket to winning over any baker’s heart! It’s an heirloom piece that’s designed to last for many years! It bakes nice and evenly thanks to it being made of cast-aluminum and holds 10 cups of cake batter! Want to really go for the gold in the bundt pan department? Get them a MINI bundt pan!

Gourmet Ingredients

Premium Vanilla Extract  – The gift of high-quality extract is one the experienced baker won’t take for granted! It adds incredible depth and richness to any baked good.

Gel Food Coloring – All experienced bakers know that not all food coloring is created equal. If you want professional results, high-quality gel food coloring is where it’s at!

Finishing Salt – It seems ironic that adding salt to your sweets enhances the flavor, but it’s true! The key is to not overly use it… just a pinch here or there over chocolate chip cookies or fudgy caramel brownies! I’ve loved this salt company for years and use it often.

Baking Accessories and Novelties

Recipe Stand – Make it easier for the experienced baker to see their recipes hands-free with this wooden recipe stand. The holder is perfect for both cookbooks and tablets, and has a protective acrylic shield that protects beloved recipes from food splatter and fingerprints.

Baking Keychain – Hands down the most charming baking gift! Experienced bakers have quite a few gadgets and gizmos, but now they can take their love for baking on-the-go.

Baker Plant Pot – Plants make people happy, and baking makes people happy, so combine the two with this adorable pot! It takes baking beyond the kitchen and into any room of the house.

Scented Candle – Let the experienced baker savor the smells of baking… even when they’re not baking. This scrumptious candle has notes of vanilla, butter, and caramel that is a true delight for the senses!

Bread Baking Kit – I just couldn’t pass this one up! How fun is it to be able to make bread in tiny terracotta pots? It’s the best way to challenge even the most experienced baker.

Recipe Book – Every baker has their tried and true recipes, but do they have them in one place? Hopefully! If not, this sweet recipe book is exactly what they need to organize and store their recipes. Isn’t the retro pattern so cute?

Baking T-Shirt – You know this Taylor inspired t-shirt caught my eye! Bakers gonna bake all day, every day!

Searching for the perfect gift for a pie enthusiast? This sweet gift guide has everything a true pie lover needs. Each gift is not only thoughtful, but practical which makes them ideal presents for anyone who believes that life is always better with pie!

Essential Pie-Making Tools

Here are some of the best gift every pie lover’s kitchen needs to be stocked with:

Food Processor – A food processor is your best friend when it comes to making pie crusts of all sorts. Pulse flour, butter, and water together for a classic buttery pie crust. You can also use it to crush crumbs for a simple graham cracker crust.

Dough Blender – If you want to make your pie dough by hand, then you MUST have a dough blender! It easily cuts the cold butter into the flour so you can work smarter, not harder!

Rolling Pin – This is the rolling pin of all rolling pins! Because the rolling pin tapers down at the end, you’ll be able to have better control over your crust and the amount of pressure you’re rolling it out with. It’s also lighter in weight than traditional rolling pins, which means you won’t overwork that delicate pie dough.

Pie Weights – One of the easiest ways to prevent a soggy crust is by blind baking it. Pie weights help to weigh the crust down while it’s blind baking so it doesn’t bubble up and bake unevenly before you add the filling!

Non-Slip Pie Mat – No more guessing if your crust is big enough! This special mat measures everything out for you. Added bonus: It ensures your pie crust won’t stick to the counter when rolling it out!

Pie Crust Shield – All the pie pros around know that the edge of your pie will bake faster than the center, so having a pie crust shield like this one will easily solve that problem! Adding a silicone pie crust shield allows the crust to more evenly bake, can be reused over and over again, and is also adjustable to whatever pie plate you’re using.

Pie Dishes for Every Occasion

A new pie dish is always a welcome gift, but there are so many to choose from! Here are a few of my personal favorites:

Emile Henry Ruffled Pie Dish – The ruffled edge is what this pie dish is all about!

OXO Glass Pie Plate – This is a pretty basic pie dish, but that doesn’t matter because it’s all about the lid! The lid is vented so you can cover a warm pie up and have the steam vent out so the crust doesn’t get soggy.

Mini Pie Dishes – I’m 100% convinced that everything tastes better when its mini and pies are no exception! The pie lover in your life will swoon over these little things!

Silicone Pie Dish – This is a fun find for someone who may already have a ton of pie dishes!

Fun Accessories and Gadgets

If you’re gifting to someone who seems to have all the basic pie making appliances, then surprise them with something truly fun and unique!

Pie T-Shirt – The cutest shirt that comes in the cutest colors! Really the best way to show off your love of pie!

Mini Pie Maker – You know I can’t resist a mini appliance, and this mini pie maker is no exception! It’s perfect for making both sweet and savory pies!

Pie Keychain – It’s hard to pass up little gifts like this and the initial along with that cute pie just puts this over the top!

Pie Socks – Now you can have your pie and wear it too! These socks are so fun, you’ll want to buy an extra pair for yourself!

Pie Birds – Take any pie to the next level with these charming little pie birds. You add them to the center of your pie to help release steam which prevents a soggy crust. They also help to keep pie filling from bubbling over and can help prevent cracks from forming in your top crust.

The Gift of Pie

Want to truly give a gift from the heart for the pie lover in your life? Bake them a pie yourself! I have so many fun, scrumptious, and easy pie recipes. You can view all of them here, but these are some of my favorite:

• No Bake Key Lime Pie
• Easy Jello Pie
• Toffee Almond Pie
• Millionaire Pie
• Banana Cream Pie
• Caramel Apple Pie
• Mississippi Mud Pie
• Maple Chess Pie

OXO Cookie Press – Time to get fancy with those cookies! This press has tons of designs for endless cookie possibilities.

Starting your married life with the right kitchen equipment makes cooking together a joy! There will be so many moments you can share together and food in itself is a love language! So let’s create those memories and good times with these must-haves for your wedding registry checklist:

High-Quality Cookware Sets

A well-chosen cookware set really sets the foundation of your kitchen registry. Here are some items I’ve used and loved over the years

• Stainless Steel Pots and Pans – Learning to cook with stainless steel does have a little bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, you won’t use anything else! Good, high-quality pots and pans will last for years to come!
• Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven – I didn’t have one of these for a long time, but now it’s something I won’t give up! Trust me – a good Dutch oven will quickly become the star of your kitchen, making everything from hearty stews to freshly baked bread taste absolutely incredible! And just like the pots and pans, it’ll last you a long time!
• Half-Sheet Pans – Not only are these used for baking cookies but for other various foods like cheese croissants, pizza, or easy sheet pan meals like this!

Must-Have Kitchen Tools

These wedding registry essentials will make food prep a breeze!

• Cutting Boards – I’ve had these cutting boards for years and love that they don’t slip!
• Knife Set – If you’re looking to save, you can’t go wrong with this set. If you want to splurge, these knives are the way to go! You’ll also need a knife sharpener to keep those knives in tip–top shape.
• Measuring Cups – You’ll need both dry and liquid measuring cups. Don’t forget the measuring spoons too!
• Sticky Measuring Cup – Yes, there is such a thing and it’s my favorite! It measures ingredients like peanut butter, honey, and mayo with ease!

• Colanders – I like having a variety of sizes on hand! And as with the pots and pans and mixing bowls, stainless steel is the way to go for long-lasting durability.

Small Appliances to Add to Your Wedding Registry

There are so many little trinkets and gadgets out there, but I would focus on these:

Stand mixer (perfect for baking together) Food processor Blender for smoothies and soups Electric kettle Toaster or toaster oven

• Stand Mixer – This one is a work horse! I use it to mix batters, knead dough, and even shred chicken.
• Hand Mixer – This is the gadget I use when making any sort of frosting, meringue, or whipping mashed potatoes.
• Food Processor – Because I bake a ton, I have a large capacity food processor, but if you’re just starting off, this one works wonders too!
• Blender – A high-powered blender is perfect for whipping up healthy smoothies or even making soup!
• Electric Kettle – Heat water up in no time at all. I love the sleek and simple design of this kettle!
• Toaster – This sounds like such a cliché thing to register for, but it’s one you don’t want to be without! I loved the slim design and cute colors of this toaster!

Best Bakeware for the Newlywed Kitchen

Whether you’re dreaming of homemade cookies or planning to master that roast chicken, having the right bakeware makes all the difference. Start your newlywed kitchen off right with these must-have pieces that you’ll reach for again and again:

• 9×13 Baking Dish – For both sweet treats like brownies and poke cakes, and savory recipes like casseroles!
• Pie Plate – Like the baking dish above, it can be used for both sweet pies and savory quiches! I’ve even used it for dips before.
• Loaf Pans – I definitely recommend having two on hand. Perfect for homemade bread, quick breads, and meatloaf.
• Muffin Tins – I use a standard size for breakfast treats and mini muffin tins for bite-sized appetizers.
• For Cookies – One of the easiest desserts you can make are cookies, and what a fun way to have a stay-at-home date night! You’ll need a cooling rack, silicone baking mat, and cookie scoops!
• For Handling Hot Stuff – Safety first! Don’t forget to register for oven mitts and trivets!

Splurge-Worthy Appliances

Having a few of these appliances on hand will seriously make life easier.

• Air Fryer – The perfect kitchen appliance for cooking food fast and keeping it crispy!

Wedding Registry Tips for Kitchen Success

When building your wedding registry, consider registering for items at different prices points. Remember to choose quality over quantity and select timeless pieces that will last you a long time. This is why I opt for stainless steel kitchen products because they last forever. Also consider that over time, your cooking style and needs will change, so choose colors that are neutral… but always go for a pop of pink, in my humble opinion!

It’s that time of year when all the biggest sales of the year are happening! Not only is it a great time to knock off all those items on your Christmas list, but you can stock up on household essentials, clothing items, and and anything else you need. Here are my hand-picked favorites… Let’s get shopping!

We all know that every kitchen needs a stand mixer, measuring cups, or baking sheets, but what are some other tools that can help you be a better home cook? Here are some of my favorite kitchen gadgets that will not only enhance your cooking, but also make meal prep more enjoyable. Get ready to elevate your kitchen game and discover the essentials that every home cook should own!

Favorite Tools and Gadgets

1. OXO Kitchen Scale – When baking, weighing your ingredients will give you the best results, and this is my go-to scale. I love it because it has a removable platform which makes it easy to clean, and it has a pull-out display so you can easily read the weight when you have a large bowl on the scale.
2. Silpat – I’ve raved about this before, and for good reason! It is a baker’s dream come true!
3. Veggie Chopper – I am not a fan of chopping vegetables, so this is not only a time saver, but a sanity saver as well!
4. Sticky Measuring Cup – Every time I share my video about making my favorite peanut butter cookies, I get asked what this measuring cup is! It makes measuring sticky ingredients like peanut butter and honey a breeze! Hands down a kitchen gadget every baker needs!
5. Jar Opener – Nothing more to say other than IYKYK.
6. Meat Masher – The only way to break up hamburger!
7. Silicone Jar Scraper – It’s clear measuring ingredients like peanut butter can be tricky, but so is cleaning out the jar out! I love this silicone spatula for getting every last bit of peanut butter out of the jar. It also works for mayo jar, jam jars, and all the jars!
8. Avocado Slicer – Slice and pit avocados the easy way! This slicer doesn’t have any sharp edges, so you don’t have to worry about hurting yourself. Not that I’m speaking from experience or anything…
9. Popcorn Maker – A good Netflix binge session is always in order, and a big bowl of popcorn is the best way to enjoy your favorite shows! This popcorn maker is simple, compact, and super cute!
10. Fruit Cup Slicer – How cute are these slicers? I love that they pick up the fruit in the cup while you’re slicing it. Also works well for hard boiled eggs!
11. Foldable Phone Stand – Looking at a recipe while cooking is easy thanks to this cute little stand! Now you don’t have to worry about getting food on your phone! It’s also perfect for watching a show while in the kitchen! Did I mention this cute little kitchen gadget comes in tons of colors?
12. 4-in-1 Mixing Bowl Set – This is seriously the coolest mixing bowl set out there! It makes clean up SO EASY.
13. Foldable Over-the-Sink Dish Drying Rack – If you don’t love having dishes on the counter after washing them, this is what you need! It folds up so you can access your full sink easily!
14. Mini Waffle Maker – I love this little waffle maker… and they have griddles too. These are great single serve – it was great when I was losing weight – and would be fantastic for a college student in a dorm.
15. Cookie Scoops – I’ll say it once, and I’ll say it again… Don’t underestimate the power of a cookie scoop! It’s what makes all your cookies look so good.
