1. Hand Mixer

With a hand mixer, you can whip up wonderful creations. Compact, lightweight and versatile, a hand mixer can help you easily make smooth cookie batter, perfect whipped cream, tasty icing and decadent chocolate mousse. Its usefulness isn’t limited to baking. Use your hand mixer to whisk eggs, beat potatoes and mix dressings for holiday dinners and everyday meals.

2. Hand Blender

Hand blenders allow you to easily puree and blend without the cumbersome process of transferring ingredients from pot to blender and back. Simply submerge the blending arm into your ingredients to blend and you’ll have creamy soups, smoothies, milkshakes and more!

3. Food Chopper

Chopping can be time-consuming and dull, especially if you make numerous main and side dishes for a holiday get-together. A food chopper allows you to precisely chop, dice and mince ingredients, shortening prep time so you can get on with other cooking tasks. It’s especially useful when chopping onions. With your food chopper, you can say farewell to onion-induced tears and tedious chopping marathons.

4. Personal Blender

The brand’s iconic Stand Mixer is the champion of the kitchen and a popular perennial gift and kitchen necessity.
