Mixing bowls

Working on a cake with the kids or making your special marinade sauce for the barbecue? Our baking bowls aren't just great for mixing. With a spout on one side and a handle on the other, they're great for spill-free pouring, too. Less mess, more fun. It's a great recipe!

Mixing bowls that do more than mix

A bowl might look simple, but the right one can transform everyday cooking. From whisking up pancake batter to presenting a big leafy salad, mixing bowls are the quiet helpers that make kitchen life easier, neater and more enjoyable.

Make things easier in the kitchen with a few mixing bowls

When it’s time to remix ingredients on their way to becoming those muffins everyone can’t get enough of or your chocolate chip cookies that are always a hit, you’re gonna need a bigger bowl than the ones you eat cereal out of.

Baking a red velvet cake or whipping up pancakes for the kids in the morning? Get out mixing bowls with smart features such as anti-slip rubber rings or rubber feet that keep it steady. Whisk eggs, flour, milk and sugar with confidence for nutella breakfast crepes or everything you need to make Aunt Beth’s famous carrot cake.

Pouring scores of muffin batter into loads of pans for the school bake off is easy with a convenient pouring spout. Find kitchen mixing bowls that help you maintain a better ergonomic posture with a smart tilt position for whisking and pouring. Choose mixing bowls with handles that offer more precise pouring. Use the spout side for filling cake moulds and switch to the elongated handle to keep yourself from overfilling smaller cupcake moulds.

Right size bowl for the right size meal

There’s a big difference between your volume needs with mixing bowls when you’re making an omelet for two versus batter for a three-tiered layer cake. Find mixing bowl sets that offer a small (2.3l) and big option (3.7l). Or go with an all-purpose baking bowl for batches of muffins or large cakes that allows you to tilt the bowl as well as pour through a spout or convenient handle.

Which material is best for your kitchen?

Each material brings its own benefits:

  • Stainless steel: durable, lightweight and unbreakable, great for whisking and chilling.
  • Clear glass: lets you see every swirl and fold of your mixture, while doubling up as elegant serving bowls.
  • Plastic in grey/blue or beige: lightweight, practical and colourful, ideal for everyday mixing and storing.

Choosing the right finish means your bowl will be as useful for prepping dinner as it is for serving it.

Why choose a mixing bowl set?

A mixing bowl set gives you flexibility. Smaller bowls are perfect for sauces or chopped ingredients, while larger ones handle dough, salads or generous sharing dishes. Nesting sets save space in your cupboards, and some include a bowl with lid so you can prepare food in advance and keep it fresh in the fridge without reaching for another container.

How can mixing bowls serve beyond cooking?

The beauty of a good bowl is its versatility. Think of:

  • Deep bowls that double up for snacks or side dishes.
  • Calm beige tones for a soft, everyday look.
  • Playful grey/blue shades to brighten the table.
  • Lidded options that make storing leftovers simple.

Whether glass, steel or plastic, these bowls slip easily between prepping, serving and storing – helping you cook smarter and enjoy meals more.
