18 Unique Gifts To Give Someone Who Is Obsessed With Cake

Ready or not, it’s that time of year again: time to make your list and check it twice. Yep, I’m talking about holiday shopping. If you’re already stumped for ideas, we have suggestions of what to get everyone on your list. When in doubt, shop for someone based on their culinary interests. If they love wine, think red. If they love carbs, go carb crazy. And if they can’t stop watching The Great British Baking Show, pick up these genius gifts for cake lovers and makers.

These gifts for bakers are smart on a few different levels. Most importantly, anyone obsessed with cakes will love these items and put them to use immediately. But these gifts may also be indirect gifts for you, too. Because you might get to enjoy the fruits of their labor. That’s definitely a win-win.

Whether your loved one is a kitchen newbie or a seasoned expert, these gifts are sure to take their cake obsession to a whole new level. And if you’re a big cake creator yourself, consider this your official holiday gift wish list. Send it to your loved ones and you’ll be set.

1. Linen Apron, $32.99

Amazon

First thing’s first: Every baker should look the part. And frilly aprons are so 2017. Opt for an on-trend linen one instead. Bonus: It has pockets!

2. Cookbook Stand, $25.99

Amazon

Every baker’s been there. One hand is covered in flour and the other is desperately trying to hold down the page of a cookbook so it doesn’t slam shut. Well, that problem is solved with this cute cookbook stand. It looks like a wooden cutting board and can hold cookbooks, tablets, and recipe cards.

3. So Yummy Ultimate Cookbook Collection, $79.99

So Yummy

Every baker needs some great cookbooks. Finding recipes online is convenient, but it doesn’t compare to having printed recipes that you can hold in your hands. The So Yummy Ultimate Cookbook Collection has five books including Chocolate Dreams, Seasonal Desserts, and most importantly, Unforgettable Cakes.

4. Hand Crank Flour Sifter, $12.98

Amazon

You’re not a true baker until you’ve sifted your own flour by hand. And yet, so few bakers actually do it. Elevate their game with a hand-crank flour sifter. This one is superior to hand squeeze sifters because it’s much easier to clean. Buy it here.

5. Digital Measuring Cup, $16.95

Amazon

Bakers might not think they need digital measuring cups. They might think, Do I really need this instead of a regular measuring cup? To which we say: absolutely. Once they have this, they’ll never look back.

6. Colorful Mixing Bowls, $24.99

So Yummy

Every baker needs a set of mixing bowls, and these are rainbow colored. They instantly make every dessert

taste better. Plus, they nest perfectly inside of each other for easy storage.

7. Triple Timer, $19.95

Amazon

It’s not the sexiest gift ever, but it is one of the most useful gifts ever. And it’s not something that a baker would think to buy for themselves. The next time they’re dealing with a cake on the top rack, cookies on the bottom rack, and melting chocolate on the stove — each with their own unique baking time — they’ll thank you.

8. Surprise Cake Kit, $29.99

So Yummy

There’s a lot to love about these molds. They’re colorful, they’re easy to clean, and they have wide lips that make getting them out of the oven a breeze. Plus, they come with a So Yummy cookbook, a cake stand, and fun decorating accessories. It’s basically a party in a box.

9. Unicorn Cake Kit, $7.99

Amazon

2018 was the year of the unicorn, and the mythical beast isn’t showing any signs of going out of style. If your loved one hasn’t baked a unicorn cake yet, what are they waiting for? This one comes with a unicorn horn, unicorn ears, and unicorn eyelashes.

10. Jelly Roll Kit, $29.99

So Yummy

Anyone who watches a lot of The Great British Baking Show has probably been tempted to make a cake roll. Now, this kit can bring that dream to life. It’s Mary Berry-approved. (Okay, not actually, but we bet she’d think it’s sharp.)

11. Sassy Oven Mitt, $12.99

Amazon

Pardon our French, but this oven mitt is f%^king incredible.

12. Cake Decorating Turntable, $15.99

Amazon

If they’re serious about cake decorating (or want to get more into it), a decorating turntable is a must-have. It makes it easy to ice and decorate creations of every size. Plus, they’ll feel super professional using it.

13. Deco Pen, $14.99

So Yummy

This tool is SO much better than a crusty tube of icing or a messy piping bag. Just load it up and go.

14. Cake Lifter, $16

Amazon

This is another one of those gifts for bakers they never would have thought to buy for themselves. But once you gift it to them, their lives will never be the same.

15. Vintage Cake Stand, $13.59

So Yummy

Every cake will look like a masterpiece atop this gorgeous, scalloped-edge cake stand. How cute is the color?!

16. “Let Them Eat Cake” Cake Topper, $10.99

Amazon

Not every cake needs piped buttercream rosettes or a drip effect effortlessly cascading down the sides. Sometimes, all it needs is a sassy, cheeky cake topper. And to quote Marie Antoinette: “Let them eat cake.”

17. Perfect Slice Cake Server, $34.99

So Yummy

These days, it seems like there’s a gadget or a kitchen tool for everything. And that includes a stainless steel cake slicer. It cuts and serves the perfect piece, every time.

18. Locking Cake Carrier, $28.99

Amazon

Take it from someone who has transported a cake on the New York City subway: Transporting a cake sucks. It always ends up smashed; no amount of plates, aluminum foil, and paper bags can properly do the trick. Which is why this locking carrier is a dream come true.
