Hot Chocolate Bomb Mold

HOT CHOCOLATE BOMB MOLD Hot chocolate bombs are so popular right now -- they're all over Tik-Tok and Instagram! Using this mold, you create a chocolate sphere and fill with all of your fun hot chocolate ingredients (hot chocolate mix, marshmallows, peppermint, sprinkles, etc.). Then when you place it in the hot milk, the ingredients spill out for a fun hot chocolate experience!

FUN SPRINKLE MIX Sprinkles add a fun pop to any cake! Sprinkle Pop has a wide variety of sprinkles (seasonal, holiday, Disney, etc.) that any baker would be sure to love! It makes the perfect little addition to any baking gift. (My favorites right now are the Oh Snow Cute, Mixed Silver Dragees, Winter Wonderland, and Drenched in Diamonds mixes)

CAKESICLE MOLD Cakesicles are a huge trend right now. Who doesn't want to eat a little personal cake on a stick?

Baggu

BAGGU REUSABLE BAG These reusable bags can hold up to 50 lbs each (I use them all of the time and can carry my flour, sugar, loads of butter, etc. in just one bag). They are machine washable, fold up into a 5x5 in. pouch, and come in so many fun colors and patterns. Perfect for anyone that's into sustainable living or anyone that could use a strong reusable shopping bag.

They're perfect for meal prepping, freezer meals, smoothie packs, packing lunch, travel, and more!

produce bag

REUSABLE COTTON PRODUCE BAGS These cotton produce bags allow you to skip the flimsy plastic produce bags at the store (so much plastic waste) and because they're mesh you can store your produce in the fridge right in the bag...and they're CUTE!

cute compost

CUTE COMPOST BIN This counter-top compost bin is perfect for those in your life who love sustainability. They can store their food scraps in style (and without the smell due to the carbon filters) right on their counter until they're ready to use.

Souper Cubes

SOUPER CUBES Souper Cubes are an amazing kitchen gadget! They come in a variety of sizes and allow you to freeze food in different portions. I use them for freezing soups, stews, apple crisps, leftovers, etc. in perfect cubes to reheat at a later date. I also use them to freeze pureed ingredients for smoothies or recipes and to keep egg whites, icing, and cake batter frozen on hand and ready to go for caking! You can also bake in them!

FLOUR AND SUGAR JARS A super cute way to store your flour and sugar (or coffee, oats, pasta, cookies, etc.) on your counter.

THICK CAKE PANS These cake pans are my favorite and thicker than you would likely find in a craft store, which I find helps reduce the browning of the cake and keeps the color of the cake vibrant! A great gift for someone who wants to get started in baking or cake decorating!

candy thermometer

CANDY THERMOMETER Really important when making Italian meringue buttercream, which is my preferred buttercream.

food scale

DIGITAL KITCHEN SCALE Get precise measurements and reduce the amount of dishes you have to do (because no need for standard measuring cups)!

AUDIBLE GIFT MEMBERSHIP This is not necessarily a cake decorating basic (I don't know what category it belongs in), but it makes the process extra enjoyable to be able to listen to an audiobook or podcast while decorating.
