I’m a pretty simple girl. Give me a knife in the kitchen and I can do whatever is needed. But I can’t lie, there are some kitchen tools out there that make life a whole lot easier.
From slicing a cake to an avocado, here are my top 5 picks of kitchen tools you never knew you needed.
{1} I’ve really been into making layered cakes lately, but they tend to be a little lopsided at times. This layer cake slicing kit from Zenker makes cutting even layers much easier -$56.99
{2} I love avocado and, due to the high quantities I ingest, have become a bit of a master slicer. But how much easier does this avocado slicer and pitter from Williams Sonoma make it for us to eat this delicious fruit – $22.35
{3} Squeezing oranges, limes and lemons by hand can be a pain (literally if you have cuts). This manual squeezer by BergHOFF makes it much easier – $18.95
{4} Who doesn’t love pancakes, especially when shaped into hearts or airplanes thanks to these moulds found at Bed Bath & Beyond – $10.99-$11.99
{5} Mixing drinks at your cocktail party is much easier with these measured spirit spouts by True Fabrications – $7.34

That cake cutter is a great idea! I think a good quality knife is an essential… we have a couple of Shun knives and they are great!
Tan says
I know I definitely squealed when I saw it!
Ryan is huge into good quality knives. They really make a difference.

Ok, that cake slicer would definitely have come in handy for my daughter’s rainbow cake! Mine looked like the Leaning Tower of Pisa 🙂
Tan says
Mine too! I’ve always had that problem with layering cakes. That cake slicer would help immensely!

Hrrrm… unfortunately I don’t have anything strange. Except for my mini food processor. I literally have to split everything into 10 batches to process it all. Maybe I need an upgrade
