My 2023 Kitchen Gadget Gift Guide

Once upon a time, I used to have a “favorite things party” with a small group of friends. The idea was that you gifted each other something you loved that was under $20. We all walked away with the same care package of gifts, all things we knew each other would enjoy.

Kitchen gadgets always dominated as part of everyone’s favorite things. Sometimes the smallest gizmos make the best gifts! If you’re shopping for someone who spends anytime in the kitchen, one of these 14 gifts could be worth buying:

Mini Waffle Maker

I am swooning over this 4” mini waffle maker! A great gift for someone with small kids or someone who attempts to “waffle” other foods – tater tots, cinnamon rolls… the possibilities are endless!

Soda Stream

Sparkling water can get expensive. With your own a soda stream, you can turn tap water into sparkling with the press of a button. 

Steel Kettle

When I want a nice cup of tea on a cold day, I’d much rather reach for a kettle than stick my mug in the microwave. The whole ritual of heating it up on the stove feels special. I can taste the extra time and care.

Electric Salt and Pepper Grinder

These electric grinders are great to customize the coarseness and efficiency of seasoning your food. Plus they work by simply flipping them over, no buttons needed! 

Pasta Strainer

Most of us have a large coriander on hand, but for the days when you’re simply trying to crank out some mac and cheese, I love this option. This strainer clips onto the sides of your pot or pan, great for compact kitchens or busy chefs! 

Sandwich Sealer

When my kids were young, they were all about some uncrustable sandwiches. Maybe it was the novelty of the shape, but how I wish we had something like this years ago! I love that you can do the same idea with cold cuts too. 

Ninja Creami

There’s nothing more fun than making your own frozen treats! With the Ninja Creami you can make your own ice cream, gelato, sorbet… the sky’s the limit. Customize it to you own dietary needs or favorite flavors. 

Cheese the Day 

I love the idea of giving this cheese knife as a gift with your favorite cheese or cheese sampler! Great for anyone who loves a good pun and a charcuterie board. 

ChirpyTop Wine Pourer

Such a fun party trick for all ages. This ChirpyTop wine pourer features a bird that really chirps as you pour your wine. Pair it with a bottle of wine for a classy gift. 

Taco Truck Taco Holder

Stainless steel taco holders are sleek, but there’s something fun about these taco truck holders! They are dishwasher safe and great for the taco lover in your life. 

Croc Food Chopper

Sign me up for anything that makes chopping up veggies quick and easy (especially onions.) Have fun with this croc food chopper that makes chopping prep a breeze. 

Mini Spatula Set

One thing I always admire about being in the home of a seasoned cook is how they have a tool for everything. Serving brownies or getting cookies off a pan? Mini spatula. This set is a great gift for someone who loves to bake. 

Immersion Blender

If the cook you’re buying for doesn’t have an immersion blender, put it on the list! So great for eggs, soups, frothing… the list goes on and on. I love that you can easily store it too. 

Chef Mat

These mats are simply magical. They are great for in-front of the stove, the sink, or honestly, at a stand-up desk for when you’re working from home.
