Stocking Stuffers for Bakers

How’s your December going, y’all? Are you being swept up in the craziness of the holiday season? Are all of your presents bought, wrapped, and under the tree? Or do you wait until Christmas Eve to do that? What about the stocking? You’ve got that taken care of, right? Don’t worry if you’re stumped about what to get the baker in your life for their stocking. Why? Because this list of stocking stuffers for bakers is made just for you!

Several of these ideas can be found in the dollar store, which is excellent news in this current economy. You may need to head to a specialty store for a few others. I can vouch for these stocking stuffers, as I have found many of these in my stocking over the years. There are a few links below, but I am not an affiliate, nor do I make any claims of availability or in time for Christmas.

Cookie Cutter

Does your baker enjoy making cookies? You can pick up a special cookie cutter for them. Maybe turn it into a tradition, like some families do with ornaments. An alternative is a cookie stamp. Whatever you do, have fun with it.

Frosting Knife

A frosting knife or spatula is a lifesaver when frosting cakes. They come in various sizes, from a few inches for cookies and cupcakes to around a foot for cakes. You can get straight ones or angled ones. Each serves a different purpose, but the straight one can be used for almost everything.

Wooden Spoons

There is something nostalgic about using wooden spoons when baking. It reminds me of times in the kitchen with my mom and when I started baking independently.

Splatypus

This tool is so funny, and the colors remind me of a particular cartoon character. It’s great for scraping out small containers, like evaporated milk cans. You can find it here.

Pan Scrapers

I was first introduced to pan scrapers when I first received Pampered Chef. These little squares are perfect for cleaning pans without destroying your sponge. My daughter uses hers to clean her cast iron pans. You can find those here.

Cupcake Liners

Cupcake liners come in a variety of colors and patterns. You can also find them in a variety of materials and sizes. The ones I use most often are silicone cupcake liners. But you can find mini-cupcake liners that are perfect for bonbons.

Oven Thermometer

Everyone should have an oven thermometer because no oven temperatures are accurate. It could be that the oven thermostat is broken, or it could be that the air just doesn’t circulate around like it should. You can find oven thermometers in both analog, which is left hanging in the oven, and digital, which leaves a probe in the oven.

Candy Thermometer

While it’s called a candy thermometer, it can be used to make certain frostings, as they must be boiled to a specific temperature. Candy thermometers can be analog or digital.

Brown Sugar Saver

If you’re like me, and your brown sugar gets rock hard even when stored in a sealed container, you need a brown sugar saver. Traditionally, they are made of terracotta and shaped like a teddy bear, but you can find them in a variety of shapes and sizes. I’m not sure how they work, but they do, and it’s incredible! You can find those here.

Gift Cards

Does the baker in your life have a store where they like to get supplies? Then, gift cards could be the perfect stocking stuffer for them. We have a store here in town that I will turn to if I’m looking for a new spice or seasoning, especially if I only need a small amount. Why? Because they sell many items in bulk, I’ll head there if I only need a small amount. It helps me save money and eliminate food waste.

That’s ten stocking stuffers for bakers. Did you find anything here that you hope to see in your stocking? Or to put in someone else’s stocking? What are some great stocking stuffers for bakers that you can think of?
