Holiday Gift Guide for the Cook – 2026

4 Waffle Maker – If you have lots of kids or entertain this makes waffles quickly to feed the masses. Plus everything is cuter when it’s mini.

Peeler – The best peeler ever. My mother in law got this for Christmas a few years ago because she always asks me about mine.

Jar Scraper – Kind of a kitschy gift, but so cute that it sits on the lip of a jar. Useful to be able to get the last bit out of the jar.

Geometry Towels – The best towels ever. I’ve used these for years! They’re huge, sop up so much, and they’ve got so many designs for everyone on your list. Code TARA saves you $$.

Automatic Salt and Pepper Shakers – So simple, but so handy!

Ballerina Farm Seasoning – Can’t get enough of this seasoning. I put it on just about everything… eggs, chicken, + so much more.

Chopper with Drawer – This is the one we have and it’s such a time saver!

Ninja Air Fryer – It’s not just an air fryer, is does about a million other things. It grills, broils, toasts, you name it. I have had a lot of air fryers and this is at the top my list as one of my faves. I use it almost every day.. my favorite feature about this one is that it has a FLAT griddle.

Crepe Maker – You know when Braun pulls this puppy out we are going to be having crepes for the next 3 meals. If you know someone who loves crepes, this gift is the way to go. P.S. it weighs so many pounds and is the most industrial of crepe makers, but you can whip them up so quickly on this and they turn out great every time. I bought this for Braun for Christmas a few years ago.

Caraway Bakeware – These are nonstick + nontoxic! Comes with a great storage compartment too.

Garlic Mincer – I don’t know about you, but I do like the traditional mincers, this one has great reviews and is more compact.

Cheese Making Kit – Who doesn’t want to make their own cheese? Me, definitely me, but you may know someone who this would be fun for! haha

Lemon Juicer – Gets allllll the juice out.

Salt Sphere – This is what we put our AM Niccoli salt in. I leave it on my counter to it’s easily accessible.

Bread Maker – You can mix, rise, and bake all in this contraption. So cool!

Loop Lock – Reusable bag sealer. It rolls down to keep things fresh.

Cutting Board – This has an attachment that you can slide scraps in.

Meat Shredders – These are so great for smoked meats, shreds the meat in a breeze.

Grilling Trays – Pretty trays are always a good idea!

Scoop and Pour – This is convenient when you have a bottle that you need to put a drink mix into. Think electrolytes, greens, protein powder, etc.

Pancake Batter Mixer – Super easy to mix + dispense the batter from this! Can make a lot of batter too. Would be cute to do this with a bag of pancake mix + syrup!

Grease Strainer – Dump it in here and once it hardens, throw it away with ease.

Recipe Club – Anyone else so over digital recipes and having to dig to find them? I know I am! My friend, Kelsey, designed the most beautiful binder to be able to store a physical copy of all your recipes. She includes a canva editable template too so all your recipes can look the same. Talk about GENIUS! Code TARA saves you 15%.

Yeti Cooler – Our favorite on the go coolers.

Knife Sharpener – Just ordered this a few months ago! I love that it’s compact. Works really well!

Ninja Prepi – New to the Ninja line up, it’s the all in one prep tool. Shredding, chopping, dicing.

Cordless Mixer – I’ve had this for several years and it’s the best! A charge holds for a longggg time.

Meat Patty Maker – Make the perfect burger patty every time. AND you can store it in this as well.
