Baking Equipment for Home Bakers



I have listed down the basic equipment and tools needed for home baking.

Basics:

- mixing bowls of different sizes
- measuring spoons (basic measuring spoon sets include measures for 1/4 teaspoon, 1/2 teaspoon, 1 teaspoon, and 1 tablespoon. Larger measuring spoon sets may also include 1/8 teaspoon, 3/4 teaspoon, and 1/2 tablespoon. i prefer those stainless steel ones as they have sharp precise edges and provide the most accurate measuring.)
- measuring scale (for dry items and for more precise measurment)
- measuring cup (for liquid items)
- rolling pin
- wooden spoon
- pastry brush
- hand whisk
- wire mesh sieve
- spatula

- baking trays (muffin cups, cookie trays etc)
- baking sheets (choose baking sheets made of shiny, light colored metals, such as heavy-duty aluminum. Light colored ones encourages even baking and are less likely to burn.)
- cookie cutter / moulds
- cookie scoop
- wire cooling rack

Others:

- kitchen timer
- oven mitts
- tongs
- mixer (hand or stand)
