KitchenAid 7-Speed Digital Hand Mixer with Accessories – Invest in a good hand mixer and it will last you for years. This one come with accessories, which is handy when you don’t want to use a large stand mixer to achieve the same effect.

Circulon Nonstick Bakeware 9-Inch Round Cake Pan – a true non-stick pan that just works. It’s also a breeze to clean. Essential when you want gorgeous cakes to just fall out of the pan for that “naked” frosted look and perfect for smooth application of frosting.

Le Creuset Heritage Caribbean Stoneware Loaf Pan – I love my stoneware loaf pan! It’s perfect for bread, cakes, meatloaf, even casseroles. It bakes evenly and it cleans like a dream!

Hudson Essentials Stainless Steel Measuring Cups Set – 6 Piece Stackable Set with Spout – I love that these have a spout! These are durable and will last a lifetime.

Silicone Baking Mat – Non Stick Cookie Sheets – These are lovely to bake with. Easy clean up and your cookies will thank you! PS: They’re not just for cookies! Think roasted potatoes, veggies, fries, etc.

KitchenAid Artisan Series 5-Qt. Stand Mixer with Pouring Shield – a true investment tool that I can’t live without! I hemmed and hawed over the expense of this, but man, it’s a time saver in the kitchen. Blends, beats, and whips, hands-free, letting me do other prep work while it does its thing. Plus, it creams mashed potatoes like nobody’s business. Bonus: it comes in range of colors that’ll make you consider investing in more than one…colors so gorgeous that you’ll contemplate holding a bake sale to raise funds for your next acquisition. Oh, wait…

Bellemain Cooling Rack – perfect for cookies, muffins, truffles, and doughnuts. Makes easy work of icing and drizzling your yummy creations. Dishwasher safe.

Cotton Women’s Apron Dress – Let’s face it: it can get messy in the kitchen when we’re baking. I mean, that flour seems to have a mind of its own and it just gets everywhere, right?! And most of the time, it gets on me. I don’t feel so bad about it if I’m wearing a cute apron that I can throw in the wash to remove the evidence of my messiness. Plus, I feel all June Cleaver in it (minus the high heels. ::ahem:: ).

Bellemain Stainless Steel 3 Cup Flour Sifter – and speaking of flour, feel free to sift away with this handy sifter. Makes your flour perform like it’s supposed to. Tip: use it for confectioner’s sugar, too, to get those pesky lumps out. A definite must-have!
