    Gourmet Baking Gifts 2022

    It's no secret around here that the holidays are my favorite. I love gift shopping, watching Christmas movies, and of course, all the awesome cooking and baking that comes with the season.

    This list is just a taste of some of the quirky baking gifts that really get me in the spirit. In it, I try to include a range of price points and interests -- because we aren't all looking for expensive gifts for bakers this year (I'm looking at you, KitchenAid). You can find all of these gifts for bakers on Amazon, which will make your shopping even easier! I hope you enjoy, and most of all I hope you have a fun, safe, and delicious holiday season!

    What to gift a friend who loves baking?

    That depends -- is your friend a beginner baker, a casual home baker, or would they consider themselves a Star Baker? Do they mostly bake cookies and brownies, or are they a serious cake decorator? Or maybe they love to bake bread?

    To be honest, you're in the right place either way, because this list of gourmet baking gifts and baking gift sets for adults and kids is perfect for everyone. It's full of funny baking gifts for any skill level so you can find the best holiday gift for your favorite baker! Read on to find funny baking gifts and kitchen gadgets for them, or for you!

    1. "The Giving Plate," Set of 3

    When a friend of ours brought one of these plates to a Christmas celebration a few years back, it instantly became one of my favorite things! Each of these three melamine plates is printed with a poem:

    This plate shall have no owner

    For its journey never ends.

    It travels in a circle

    Of our family and friends.

    It carries love from home to home

    For everyone to share.

    The food that's placed upon it

    Was made with love and care.

    So please enjoy what's on the plate

    Then fill it up again.

    Then pass along the love it holds

    To your family and friends.

    A simple gesture that is truly emblematic of the love and joy of the holiday season. As someone who shares affection through baking, these plates are really very moving in their simplicity and earnestness. Two things we need more of this season. Best of all, they're very affordable gifts, and you can even write each cook's name and the date in permanent marker on the back of the plate to track its journey!

    BUY THEM!

It sits in the pie dish and vents steam from the pie filling and supports the upper crust, allowing the pie to bake evenly and beautifully every time!
