Simple Hand Mixer

I have had this hand mixer for years & it is a great tool to keep in your kitchen, even if you have a stand mixer! It comes with its own storage container, so you can store your attachments easily & out of sight. This tool is perfect for quickly mixing Saturday morning pancakes, whipping some cream & even beating eggs quickly.

Vanilla Bean Paste

I replaced vanilla extract in my kitchen with vanilla bean paste this year & it has been a game-changer! I love the smell & taste of vanilla & would always double the vanilla extract the recipe called for. With vanilla bean paste, you can taste the vanilla with every bite & even see the vanilla specks, which I love (no need to put twice the extract). Take your recipes to the next level with this vanilla bean paste!

Glass Mixing Bowl

A glass mixing bowl is a must-have for every kitchen! This bowl’s glass is nice & thick and will last you a lifetime of baking! I love that it comes with a lid so, if you have to let a recipe sit in the fridge for a bit, it won’t spoil with its air-tight seal.

Whipped Cream Dispenser

You are going to look like such a pro with this tool! You know when you go to a nice restaurant, and they make the whipped cream look like a perfect swirl you would see in cartoons? This is how they do it. A whipped cream dispenser will give you the perfect aesthetic topping to every baked good you create!
