Hey Besties! I’m excited to share our 2023 ultimate gift guide for bakers with you! I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of time compiling all of my favorite products and tools that I swear by and other bakers love! Only the best for my Besties! We’ll cover the practical tools and products you need, gifts to comfort and spoil you and fun and pretty gifts we really want!
Tis the season to not only shop for those we love but create our own wish lists too! Or if you’re like me, you do a fair amount of your own holiday shopping! But regardless of whether you shop for yourself or share this gift guide with your loved ones, I’ve got you covered! After spending the whole year watching every penny on the rising prices of ingredients and tools, it’s time to shop for us! Without further ado, let’s dive into the gift guide! Cue the holiday music!
Baker’s Wish List
Because our passion lies in all things baking, let’s kick this off with the practical things that make baking easier, more efficient and more fun! These are the types of things you can use daily in all your baking and are tried-and-true!
Kitchen Essentials
These first few things are must-haves for any baker! They are functional and pretty at the same time! If you’re working with a hodge-podge of tools, it might be the right time to get the beautiful stuff!
Decorating Essentials
Regardless of what you love to bake, every baker should have these couple decorating essentials. They last for YEARS and you can use them endlessly for all kinds of decorating.
Cookie Baking Essentials
Full transparency: I used regular spoons for baking cookies for most of my life, but once you have cookie scoops, you never go back! They really do make baking drop cookies so much faster, easier and consistent! And don’t even get me started about the perforated baking mats! Game changer!!!
This is really all about you, right?
Listen Bestie, baking is HARD work. And regardless of whether you bake for a living or as a hobby, YOU come first. I hope you prioritize your self-care even before your beautiful bakes! These are products I love and will take good care of you.
Products The Work With YOU
Kick Your Feet Up and Pamper Yourself
Now it’s time to spoil yourself with some real TLC. Super affordable products that help you relax and feel your best!
All The Pretty Things
Alright Besties, you NEED some of the pretty things in life. If you’re like me, I spend money on everyone else before myself and these are just some of the things I love.
Take All My Money
You may already know this, but I have a deep LOVE for Nordic Ware pans. I think they are absolutely stunning, so easy to use and help you effortlessly make beautiful cakes and breads. Everyone should have at least one beautiful loaf pan and bundt pan. I have very little control when I see these beautiful pans, so I have several. And I love that I can pass these pans down to my kids and grandkids.
Kitchen Character
Rounding out our gift guide for bakers are these couple items that bring some real character to your kitchen!
