Did you know that more people bake during the holidays than at any other time? 

Nielsen-Massey Vanillas conducted a survey with 1,000 Americans and found that 87% of Millennials and Gen-Xers are most likely to bake during the holidays with more than half of Millennials surveyed saying they are motivated to bake as a way to spend time with loved ones.

This information led them to their first-ever #BaketoShare campaign, which is meant to help increase connections between family and friends this holiday season through the act of baking.

That means there’s no better time than the holiday season to give baking gifts! 

We put together this unique, curated list of gifts that any baker would love to receive. There’s something for every budget level and baking skill.

Whether you are looking for a Christmas gift that the baker in your life they can use year-round, or something you can use together in the kitchen to #BakeToShare, we’ve got you covered!

P.S. – Don’t forget to follow Nielsen-Massey on social media for recipe inspiration: website, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter!
