Dorothy KernKitchen gifts are some of my favorite things to give and receive! If you have a foodie on your list or someone who loves to bake, cook, or entertain, you should get them something on this list.
I curated these kitchen gifts with things I actually have purchased and used so you know you’re getting the best items! From cookbooks to cookie scoops, this list has something for everyone.
Whether you want to buy a small kitchen appliance for someone or just need an easy hostess gift, this list has something for everyone on your list!
A fun gift for pet lovers (or anyone you love)
Have someone on your list that loves baking and their dog (or cat or human)? Get them a LitMitt! They sent me one of these to try and I got Abby put on top. How adorable is this??

Small kitchen appliances make great gifts!
Here are some of my favorite small kitchen appliances. I’ve purchased all of these that I’ve listed and love them all!
The Nespresso VertuoPlus is my absolute favorite coffee maker EVER. I’ve officially retired my Keurig and barely ever use my drip. Did you know that the official Nespresso pods are recyclable? I just gather them up and take them to Sur la Table or Williams Sonoma and turn them in. GAME CHANGER.
Breville Precision Brewer Coffee Maker: For drip coffee, I purchased a Breville this year. It works great and does different sizes and strengths!
The Instant Pot – this makes the list every year! I love using it to make fast dinners (and my chicken recipe is one of the top ones on this website!)
Another yearly showing on my favorite things list: the Cuisinart Griddler. Mine needs replacing it’s so old and falling apart, that’s how much I use it!
Kitchen Gadgets make great stocking stuffers!
If you’re camping or traveling where you’ll want hot water (like, no coffee maker in the room and you want to make Via Instant Coffee), this collapsable kettle is PERFECT. I pack it all the time!
If you buy an Instant Pot, you should buy one of the approved Instant Pot Lids for the top. It comes in handy when you’re sautéing!
Pie Shields are something every pie baker needs – a pack of two is only $9.99 on Amazon!
Thermapen Instant Read Thermometer – I use this ALL THE TIME. You can’t get them on amazon and I used to recommend the cheap version but no more, not now that I’ve used the original. Plus: no batteries corroding when washing!
Cookie Scoops are always on my list and make a great stocking stuffer – they come in all sorts of sizes!
I love the TacoSaurus….because he’s fun and cute. Is there another reason you need to buy one?
A serving dish is always a great holiday or hostess gift!
I absolutely love all things MudPie. MudPie is a brand that sells fun baking and serving dishes with funny sayings. Just google them or type them into amazon for a flood of ideas, but here are some of my favorites:
If you love charcuterie, you need some wood boards. These are two from Target I love:
I won that gorgeous Sertodo Copper Bowl at a workshop and it’s absolutely gorgeous, as is all of their stuff.
Cake Stands are always a hit for me – especially in pretty colors!
Stemless Champagne Flutes are THE BOMB. Ever worry about breaking stemware? No more – buy stemless!
Cookbooks are still a (relevant) great gift!
Some of my favorite bloggers released cookbooks this year! Here are my favorites:
- The Weeknight Dessert Cookbook by Mary Yourkin
- My Little Pony Baking Book by Christy Johnstone
- Beautiful Boards by Meagan Brown
- Pastry Love by Joanne Chang
