Today, we’re checking out a few must have kitchen items! I’m sure we all have the required kitchen items on deck like pots, pans and cutlery. However, we can sometimes overlook a few items that can save time, add convenience or at least make a statement in the kitchen.
Whether this is your first kitchen or you’re a kitchen pro, a little extra inspiration can go a very long way when you’re creating a kitchen that suits your needs.
So, let’s dig in. Here are some must have kitchen items that every kitchen needs:
Cake Stand
You know that presentation is everything when it comes to the kitchen. To show off your delicious cake or tasty pastries, you can’t go wrong with a cake stand with a dome cover. I love this one and this other stand that can be used in multiple ways (punch bowl, salad bowl, etc).
Salad Bowl
Salad served in a beautiful bowl is a divine thing. To upgrade your salad game, you should consider this wooden salad bowl with salad spoon and fork. I love how it brings a bit of luxury to the dining experience and maybe a little nudge to eat more salad. I said maybe, haha.
Drink Dispenser
Another must have item is a drink dispenser that can contain your lemonade, ice water or sangria mix. Ahem! After owning two drink dispensers, I love how they look great in the fridge, on the countertop and even on the patio!
I’m loving this decorative glass beverage dispenser. I even came across this drink dispenser with infuser! Added to my cart!
Popover Pan
I once was served a popover at a bridal shower and fell in love. However, I have not been able to replicate ‘the look’ on my own. After failing with the muffin pan, I saw a popover pan online and squealed with delight. If you also like popovers, then check out this pan that I found at an affordable price!
Cookware Utensils
Since presentation is everything, your utensils should also make a statement and be functional. I’m in love with bamboo utensils or silicone utensils with a marble print! You can check out this 6 piece bamboo utensil set similar to the set I own and also this cute marble print silicone utensil set.
You may also like this inexpensive utensil holder if you want to store/display your utensils on the countertop!
Small Electric Appliances
Here’s my opinion: You need a few appliances in your life to save time and add convenience. While in lockdown, I found these three small electric appliances to be so helpful.
First up, an electric water kettle allowed me to quickly pour multiple cups of tea without much delay. Second point, I love deviled eggs and an electric egg cooker made the process less tedious for me. Finally, my fridge doesn’t make ice so the countertop ice maker kept me stocked with ice when I refused to venture into the world.
Other Must Have Items for the Kitchen:
If you want to display your prized cookbook or actually read the ingredients for your recipe, get a cookbook stand. I also moved my Alexa Echo Show 8 into the kitchen so I can check out recipes, use the timer for my cooking and even dance to some music.
Like many of you, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen so I’m always looking for items that are functional and stylish! I really hope you found this list of must have items for the kitchen helpful.
