Top 5 Baking Gifts
1) Shaker Rolling Pin
The Shaker Rolling Pin is a classic—possibly the same design your grandmother used. With simple lines and a solid feel, it rolls quickly at a weight of almost two pounds.
2) Superstone Covered Baker
Create superior, crackly crusted breads with this oblong ceramic baker. The unglazed interior has the same effect as a brick oven—drawing moisture from the dough. Also great for roasting vegetables, meats, and stews.
3) “Vanilla" Book by Patricia Rain
Follow along with recipes from the Vanilla Queen, Patricia Rain, as she traces the history of vanilla across the globe and back to its earliest days. Learn how to let this versatile spice shine in any cuisine. Don’t just limit yourself to cookies and cakes—vanilla is a stealthy flavor enhancer in savory dishes, too.
4) Silicone Spatula 4-Piece Set
Get It Right: Silicone Spatula 4-Piece Set - Red

This DIY Cupcake Making Kit provides all the pre-measured ingredients and a detailed recipe card so you can make gourmet cupcakes at home, just add butter, eggs, and buttermilk. The kit is hand-packed from start to finish by the Red Velvet team in Brooklyn, NY. This is the easiest way to bake at home, and a memorable activity for the whole family.
