This post is all about the best baking tools | 7 essential utensils that will transform your baked goods
1. Metal measuring cups
Measuring cups are a must when you’re baking, especially if you’re using America recipes.
We strongly advise you to purchase metal measuring cups for a couple of reasons: They’re more durable and they are easier to wash.
2. Heat resistant spatulas
Spatulas are the holy grail of baking essentials! You’ll use them way more than you think.
We suggest getting heat resistant spatulas. (Trust us, accidents happen!)
We also strongly suggest investing in holiday themed spatulas!! You will feel extra even more in-the-spirit come Christmas!
3. 9×9 baking tin
Baking tins are super versatile. You can use them to bake cakes, brownies… the list is endless.
4. Cupcake tin
Again, another super versatile baking tin!
While cupcakes seem like the obvious thing to make, we highly recommend using a cupcake tin to bake brownies. The shape is cute and the brownies are a lot less messy to eat!
5. Mixing bowls with pouring spout
Mixing bowls with pouring spouts are game changers.
Farewell to all that mixture you end up pouring across the kitchen countertops.
6. Spoon rest
You’re baking tools set isn’t complete without a spoon rest. Seems like a totally unnecessary purchase, but when you don’t have to place dirty spoons on the countertop, it makes baking much more fun.
7. Cooling rack
When you’re baked goods come out the oven, immediately put them on a cooling rack so they can start cooling!
The sooner they cool, the sooner you can start decorating them.
8. Electric hand mixer
An electric hand mixer should be on your baking essentials list. It makes those lazy afternoons making cream cheese frosting much easier…!
9. Oven mitts
Need we convince you that oven mitts are a must have?! <3
10. Loaf tin
You can use a loaf tin for anything!
11. Wooden spoons
I always end up using extra utensils when I’m baking.
I’m really cheap (when I want to be!) but this was a purchase I didn’t regret.
12. Hand held whisk
I normally use a manual whisk for whisking together eggs.
At minimum you should buy a large whisk and buy a mini one – the mini whisks are useful when you’re making cream cheese frosting.
13. Kitchen scissors
I can’t explain how useful scissors are whilst baking. From opening cardboard containers to cutting up raw cookie dough(!), scissors are a must have for bakers.
14. Rolling pin
Rolling pins are used to evenly flatten all types of things from pastry doughs to cookie and pasta doughs
15. Pastry brush
I use a pastry brush to apply oil, butter glaze and egg wash to dough.
16. Sieves
Sieves are great at making flour, cocoa powder and other similar ingredients a little finer. Sieve them and get rid of any little bumps or lumps before you combine your mixture.
17. Parchment paper
Parchment paper is such a versatile baking tool. I use them for baking cookies, cakes and savory recipes too!
18. Storage containers
Storage containers are really useful when you’re finished with your recipe. Have storage containers on hand to pack up any leftovers.
But consume those leftovers ASAP!!
19. Display tiers
I love display tiers. It makes the baking process more satisfying when you can show off your products in a cute way!
20. Pie and cake stand
Okay, so I’m not saying this display is a baking essential, but how adorable is it?!
21. BONUS display plate
Yep, another non essential, but how cute?!
