My Bakers Box! Subscription Box Review!


 
Today I have another subscription box for you all to review. This one is called my bakers box. I never heard about this box before and was super honored  to be chosen to review one for all of you today!


On top of the box at first glance, there are a few pieces of paper information. The first is just a card with the web address of this subscription box and then the other is card that has all of the products listed on it. I choose to leave this one till after. I like to be surprised and see what I get.


Oooh look at all these goodies! I do have to say  I really wasn't expecting to see this many products in this box and was pretty surprised to see this many!

 
The first thing that is in this box is a little jar of strawberry preservatives. I do have to say I am in love with the packing for this product lol. It's so cute and tiny. This is a 1 oz jar so this is perfect for a small baking project. Especially now when Valentines Day is coming up! This is pretty perfect. This is also a 1 oz jar.


Rainbow sprinkles is up next!!! I think this was the product I got most excited about when I opened up this box! I love how small this container of sprinkles is too! This is perfect for a few small baking projects!


Sprinkles are the perfect finishing touch to any baking project. As you can see from this picture that there are many different colors of sprinkles inside this container which makes these go with pretty much any occasion you are baking for. Lets be honest how many people hate sprinkles? Not many! Lol sprinkles are the best :)

The next product that was in my box was this red icing. This is another product that is going to be perfect for Valentine's Day. I love how the tip for this icing is really small which makes this perfect for making some small details on any baking project you are working out. This was also be perfect for writing small words on anything your baking :)
 
Also in this box, came a lot of circular cardboard cut outs. Each circle has a whole punched out through the top which is perfect. This are the perfect gift tag to attach to any little good bag of baking good :) I love how they are hole punched too which is really convenient.

 
Look at this adorable little wisk! I love this, it's so cute and adorable. I also love how this is themed for Valentines Day! I actually love the size of this little wisk. I think its perfect for small baking projects. I could also see this being perfect for small children, when there trying to help bake In the kitchen.

The next thing that was included in this box was two cookie cutters. These cookie cutters are both made out metal so they are very durable. I've had a few cookie cutters in the past and I've realized that only the metal ones are usually the only ones to survive after washing them a few times and using them for baking.

 
I love how they included two different sizes of the cookie cutters that are the same shape. I am so excited to use these for baking for Valentines Day :) the little one is really cute too!!


The next thing in this box are some paper sticks which I'm sure could be used 1,000 ways. The first way that comes to my mind is cake pops of course. I feel like the way that I will be using these will be for some cookie pops I will be making. Pretty much all that is, is a cookie on a stick which is really adorable.

In this box there was also some small bags which is perfect! I love baking for people as a small gift, and the fact that they included little bags is just awesome! I will definitely be using these to make some of friends Valentines goodies!


I almost missed this at the bottoms of my box, but the last item that is in this box is a little bundle of thread which can be using to hang those little cards on the bags.

Also there is a recipe for some cookies you could make! This recipe also uses the strawberry preservatives that was included in this box, which is really awesome.
 
I would have to say I'm beyond impressed with this box. I love how everything included in this box was all for one baking project. I cant wait to use all of these products for baking. They really went over and beyond and made sure to include everything you could possibly need to bake with.
 
Make sure you check them out here and sign up to get your very own Bakers Box! You wont be disappointed and I promise you that!
 
I also would like to Thank everyone at My Bakers Box for sending me my very own and I hope to work with you guys in the future!

BenderBoutique On Etsy! Holiday Gift Guide Review!


I received a pretty cool item from a shop on Etsy by the name of BenderBoutique


She sent me the ultimate Christmas present for anyone who likes to bake! As you can tell from this picture this basket is packed with all kinds of different items!


She included 2 bags of chocolate chips. One is just your normal milk chocolate chips and the other one is Ghiradelli white chocolate chips! These are my favorite and my mouth started drooling when I seen these were inside the basket lol I was almost tempted to open these lol.....almost! But I didn't (I'm so proud) lol.

Next she included some festive cookie cutters. These are your basic cutter if you ask me! She included every important shape. When I think about Christmas cookies these are the images that come in my head, a gingerbread man, teddy bear, snow man, stocking and Christmas tree. The gingerbread man is a little bit bigger then the others but that is perfect because this way it gives you more room to decorate this one.


Next up we have some pecans. Personally I'm not a fan of these, but I know a lot of popular holiday recipes call for these. I also know that a lot of people really like pecans as well so it is really nice how these are included.


Next is some sparkle gel! I have actually never seen this stuff before, so I am super excited to see what these are like when I use them. It looks super sparkley in the package, so I'm sure these will be gorgeous when you use them. I think the blue one is going to be perfect for making snowflake shapes cookies.

Vanilla extract is super important in baking, it adds so much flavor to cookies and I love using it, so it cool this is included as well! 4 tubes of food coloring is also included. The colors for these are blue, red, yellow, and green. Your basic colors which is nice because you can mix these together, to make other colors as well.

Measuring cups! How perfect are these! There is 4 with this set 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup, and 1/4 cup. These are the perfect measuring cups because as you can see they are on a little plastic ring to keep them together. You can't loose these! I always do an amazing job as loosing these but not anymore!

Next she included some piping tips used for frosting. I have never got the chance to experiment with these. In this pack there 4 different styles. The possibilities are endless in what you can really do with these.I am super excited to give these a try :)

Sprinkles!!!! My favorite part on any cookies lol. This is just your basic rainbow sprinkles!

This pack of sprinkles is probably on of the coolest ones I have seen yet. It has so many different types inside of this one container.


As you can tell from this picture this container has 6 different kinds. They vary in shapes and colors. I'm sure I will put these to good use lol.

Next we have some green cherries and pineapples! These are perfect to bake with as well. I have never used green cherries but I am excited to see what I can make with these!

Just when your done with all this baking you will be doing with this basket you will be able to use these plastic bags and gift tags with them as well. This was the perfect part to include in the basket in my opinion.


Now these next two items are pretty cool as well and I wasn't expecting to see these in the basket. These alone would make great gift as well.

These are ready to bake recipes that you simply follow the directions and bake them as stated on the card attached to the jars. This first jar is called Sand Art Brownies, these sound amazing!!!

I forgot to add that these jars are beautifully decorated as well which is a huge plus!

Inside this one is a cookie mix! How perfect is that!!!


When  you are done baking with all your ingredients, you are still left with this beautiful basket, which is fabulous! You can use this for very many things.



Overall I'm beyond impressed with this basket! I am amazed by how many different products she was able to fit inside this basket. All of the products that are in this basket are pretty high quality as well, they aren't off brands which is the best part. I can't get over the price of this basket it is only $30! I am blown away and for sure will be buying a few of these. These are the perfect gift for anyone. These are perfect even if you plan on getting one for yourself if you plan on baking this holiday season. You would spend wayyyy more on all of these products at any grocery store, and if you are like me and hate grocery shopping these are perfect lol. You don't have to worry about forgetting anything. This is just a one time purchase and boom you got everything you need :)

I highly recommend checking out this shop for yourself :) She makes a ton of different themed gift baskets, I suggest going to take a look!


This specific basket isn't listed in her etsy shop but can be found on her Facebook page here:
