If you’ve been reading for long, you know my love for minimalism. I’m certainly not one for a lot of clutter or stuff laying around my house. If it doesn’t have a purpose or bring me joy, it’s generally not going to stick around for long.
However, when it comes to baking, it’s difficult for me to say no to beautiful new baking and serving pieces. I can rarely stop myself from clicking “add to cart” when a pretty new pan or a sweet little gadget looks like it will improve my life and my kitchen.
While I don’t believe that you need fun new gadgets in order to be an amazing baker, I think it can certainly make baking even more fun. Plus, it’s kind of fun just to think about creative baking gift ideas, isn’t it?
This year, I’m creating a variety of gift guides to suit every buyer and recipient. I’ve already written a round up of 25 homemade gifts, and an incredible list of kitchen gifts.
My Christmas gift guide has categories for women, men, kids and even teens – and we have an entire post is dedicated to Stocking Stuffers for Tweens and Teens!
Baking Gifts
I’ve got you covered! I consider myself so lucky when it comes to the fact that I get to bake so frequently – not just as a hobby, but as a career. Developing recipes is one of my favorite things to do, and I get to experiment with a wide variety of baking tools.
Do you have a friend or family member that is just getting started in baking? Or a grandmother who’s been baking for 50+ years and you haven’t a clue what to buy her?
Tips
