13 Kitchen Gadgets Claire Saffitz Can't Bake Without | Dessert Person
A lot of baking successfully is having the right tool for the job. Want a beautifully glazed tart or shiny pastry? You need a pastry brush. Want even, perfect cream puffs? You really should use a pastry bag.

Here Claire Saffitz goes through and explains her 13 essential kitchen tools, most of them small, simple and inexpensive, that put her (and all home bakers) on the road to success. Do you need them all? Maybe not. But if you’re committed to learning how to bake at home, these certainly help.

We’re taking a slight detour from recipe content, but keep tuning in and we’ll be back with more recipes from Dessert Person.

A show of hands: 🙋‍♂️
How many people knew that a small offset spatula would be Claire's number one item?

[rerolley]

If Clarie is ever worried that there is not enough content for a video, we would be happy just watching her cats play for 13 minutes...

[EvanC]

The fact that she is clearly coming up with this list on the spot while looking around her kitchen really makes this video

[tilda]

Claire: I kinda hate the tapered rolling pins.
The tapered rolling pin Brad gave to her: 🤧

[selic]

Chef John: Tiny wooden spoon
Binging with Babish: Tiny whisk
Claire: Tiny spatula

[kelzbelz]

I, like a good rolling pin, am conditioned by all the butter I come in contact with.

[cindymartinez]

Claire, comfy, happy, relaxed with a cat shirt. We love it!

[pacochihuahua]

"My cats too heavy"
*Gives cat a handful of treats when the food dish is full.*

[samanthaheinz]
