Welcome to the BakeryBits Christmas Gift Guide for 2025!

This year it's my turn to create the gift guide! I’ve gathered a selection of my favourite new finds, timeless essentials and handy accessories that no busy kitchen should be without. With larger gifts at the top then smaller stocking fillers to delight further down! 

Over the past year, I’ve been bringing fresh, creative sweet bakes and ideas to BakeryBits, so you’ll notice a gentle focus on the sweeter side of things. But I’ve also added some brilliant bread-baking tools and ingredients that I wish I’d discovered sooner, perfect for anyone ready to bake their own loaves at home.

Whether you’re shopping for a friend, family member, or simply treating yourself to something special for festive baking days ahead, I hope you enjoy exploring these gifts as much as I’ve enjoyed choosing them.

Merry Christmas and happy baking!

Sunbeam Yellow Ankarsrum Kitchen Mixer - £675.00

I have one of these myself and use it all the time for both cakes and bread, it really does it all. From bread and enriched doughs to cake batters and meringues, it handles everything with ease.

The cheerful yellow finish brings a pop of colour to the kitchen, making it as stylish as it is versatile. (Other colours are available!) 

Bread Proofing Banneton - From £9.17

A banneton for proofing bread adds shape and structure, assuming the dough is strong enough to hold it! I have both cane and wicker versions and each has its charm: a cane banneton leaves a beautiful pattern on the bread, enhanced by a light dusting of rice flour before placing the dough inside.

The set comes as two separate parts, the dome and a sturdy steel baking sheet, ideal for bakers taking the next step from baking on a tray.

I’m really excited about these new bundt tins, they’re the highest-quality available, with superior gauge thickness that ensures even baking. Choose between a large mould for a show-stopping cake, or a tray for six mini cakes that are perfect for sharing or gifting. I love how reliable and beautifully made they are, making every bundt cake, from fruit cakes to sponges, turn out perfectly every time. Just remember to butter them well before adding the batter!

Professional Cake Knife, Dual Serration & Wooden Handle - £30.36 

The first time I used this knife was on a banana, cardamom and chocolate chip loaf, a tricky mix of soft sponge, gooey banana and firm chocolate. Normally it would squish or tear, but this knife glided straight through, giving perfect, clean slices. With its elegant wooden handle, it’s a joy to use and a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves to bake or entertain.

Sugar & Flour Shakers – Three Sizes - From £13.43

These handy shakers are a baker’s little lifesaver. I use them every time I bake, dusting the worktop with flour so dough doesn’t stick and coating bannetons with rice flour for an easy release of the dough. I’m getting one for my dad, whose hands are always too doughy to dig into the flour bag! Available in three sizes, they’re practical, simple and make a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves baking at home. Also great for a dusting of snow sugar to finish sweet bakes.

A little luxury for home bakers and entertainers alike. Made in Cornwall, this bag is crafted from high-quality linen and hand screen-printed with care. With my background in textiles, this is a personal favourite, I love the craftsmanship, supporting independent businesses and small-batch production. It keeps tortillas warm while others are still cooking in the pan, then goes straight to the table for everyone to dig in! It also doubles as a bread serving bag for rolls or sliced loaves.

Fancy gifting the full experience? The Serving Bag is also part of our Tortilla Kit, a charming present for anyone who loves baking, sharing, and serving at the table!
