    21 Inexpensive Products All New Bakers Need

    These'll help you rise to the occasion!

    1. Silicon baking mats so you'll never have to lose a single crumb of your precious cookie creations to the tyranny of a sticky pan.

    2. A set of six super-durable measuring spoons narrow enough to slide smoothly into any spice jar.

    3. Or a set of color-coded measuring cups and spoons to bring precision to your baking and brightness to your kitchen.

    4. An adjustable rolling pin with rings for 1/16-, 1/6-, 1/4-, and 3/8-inch thicknesses, to help you roll out your dough uniformly every time — even if you have the spacial awareness of Mr. Magoo.

    5. A collapsible silicone double boiler so you can melt chocolate without scorching it.

    6. A dough scraper/shovel for scooping, scraping, slicing, and generally making you appear far more competent in the kitchen than you actually are (I won't tell).

    7. A silicone pastry brush so you can brush your biscuits with butter and your pies with egg wash and your life with fresh-from-the-oven happiness.

    8. A two-pack of silicone-handled cookie sheets, because you know you're not making just one pan of cookies.

    9. A collapsible three-tiered cooling rack, just in case you decide to actually wait till your cookies are cool before shoving them all in your mouth (seems impossible, but different strokes!).

    10. A cake decorating kit — including 36 icing tips, two silicone pastry bags, two flower nails, and two plastic couplers — because you're an artist, and the pastry is your canvas.

    11. A digital scale to weigh your ingredients, because when it comes to baking, precision is everything.

    12. A silicone spatula so you can scrape every last drop of batter out of that bowl.

    13. Flaky sea salt, which, sprinkled on top of any baked good, is scientifically proven to improve its taste (it's like savory fairy dust).

    14. A set of two 10-inch springform cake pans to make it easy to extract your cakes when they're done baking (no shaking, knife-prying, or cursing required).

    15. A wire whisk, because when you're trying to make perfectly blended batters, a fork isn't going to cut it.

    16. And a hand mixer, for when you need a little more horsepower in your blending.

    17. A set of six microwave-safe nesting bowls so you'll be prepared for all baking contingencies, even if your kitchen is miniature.

    18. A set of two silicone-handled loaf pans, because you + carbs is truly the greatest loaf of all.

    19. An angled icing spatula to make frosting cakes with buttercream a butterdream.

    20. An oven thermometer, because you should never trust your oven's dial when cookies are on the line.

    21. A multipurpose pastry blender, which will cut butter, mash fruit, and chop nuts to perfection.

    22. A lovely antique-style cake stand that will make even the homeliest cake look fancy AF.
