Best Gifts for the Baker in your life

Having a tough time with gift ideas for your favorite baker? Here’s a list with a bakers dozen ideas for inspiration! Since most bakers already have a Kitchenaid mixer, stainless steel mixing bowls, and measuring cups we decided to bring a few creative ideas. Most lists will tell you that bakers want silicone mats, cookie cutters, measuring spoons, or a hand mixer which are all great for gifting! Our list will give you some ideas that are directly for the baker themselves instead of just their creations.

  1. Personalized Apron

An apron is a baking staple! I’ve personally ruined too many outfits during baking mis-haps and there’s no such thing as too many aprons! You can find Lake House Design Art and so many other similar shops on etsy.com. They personalize with your design choice and color.

2. Sweatshirt or t-shirt

Who doesn't love a new sweatshirt or t-shirt?!? Fellow baker, Sueded Sugar, makes the most adorable designs and the shirts are so comfy you’'ll never want to take them off! There may be a wait to get this - but it’s so worth it!

3. Gadget to hold their phone

Does your baker love to use their phone for recipes, videos, music, or podcasts while they work? This is a great tool so they stop losing it on the counter while they work. Bonus - it will keep the phone or tablet safe from countertop spills!

4. Joseph & Joseph rolling pin

I honestly don’t know how I lived without this for so long! Every baker is sure to love the guides that come along with this roller. It’ll ensure every cookie is the same thickness and you don’t have pie crust that goes from thick to thin in the same slice.

5. Notebook for Recipes or Cake Decorating Ideas

What better way to keep track of their ideas at any time then this adorable little spiral notebook that is covered in cupcakes! Pastry Pals designed this product and it is sure to ignite the creative mind in any baker. A bonus is that you are supporting a small business!

6. Cupcake Pajama’s

What better way to start brain storming and writing down ideas in that brand new notebook then to be wearing adorable, comfy pajamas!

7. Oven Mitt

Let’s be real here - too many oven mitts is not a thing! So many great options from ones to keep your hands extra safe to decorative ones that you won’t want to dirty up. I love this one that my friend gave me for my birthday!

8. Amazon Echo Dot

It can be nice to have some background music or podcasts while getting baking done. From true crime to business ideas or just jamming to their favorite songs your baker is sure to love this!

9. Artisan Tea Towels

These are so versatile when it comes to baking: cleaning up that big mess, avoiding a mess by covering your mixer, covering icing with a damp towel to stay fresh. There are so many styles and designs which makes this even more fun to personalize to the bakers personality. This site offers a coupon when you sign up for their e-mails list!

10. Rolling Pin Necklace

There are so many options, you could be subtle with this adorable petite rolling pin necklace. With a quick search you’ll see the many choices available - you might not be able to pick just one!

11. Hand Hydration

After all the baking and dishwashing it’s important to make sure your hands are treated right! These hydration gloves will help solve the problem of dry hands.

12. Business card holder

Does your baker have a small business and always forget to carry their business cards? This is the perfect gift so they can keep cards safe in their wallet or bag to help promote their business!

13. Vanilla extract

This one might seem silly - an ingredient that they likely have! One of my favorite souvenirs from a vacation is when someone brings me Vanilla extract - each one has such a different smell and taste depending on where it was made. Next time you’re on vacation in a place known for their vanilla pick up a bottle for your fav baker!
