I still remember my first winters growing up, when my mom would call me in to the kitchen to watch over her cookies as they rose in the oven. I always helped as much as she let me, folding the creamy dough in on itself and dipping my pinkie in when she wasn’t looking. These were some of my favorite moments of those first holiday seasons — I cherished the chance to watch, and help, her do what she loved.
Unfortunately, these moments may have been a bit more of a headache for my mother. I was hopeless at measuring and pouring, and not the most skilled with a hand-mixer. Whenever I was involved in the process, a tsunami seemed to strike the kitchen, leaving the counters sticky and white with flour, boxes of sugar and baking soda littering the countertops. We probably spent more time cleaning up than we did actually baking.
Years later, and thanks to the glory of the internet, I’ve found the perfect solution to our dilemma — BaKIT Box’s baking kits. These ready-to-go box kits take all of the mess and guesswork out of baking. Their box kits come with all ingredients perfectly pre-portioned and packaged, ready to be mixed and enjoyed. This means no mess, no clean-up, and a simplified baking experience where the whole family can pitch in. They are perfect for all age groups, and allow even the littlest kids to participate without having to worry about measuring or spills.
BaKIT Box kits come in dozens of forms and flavors, from classic chocolate cupcakes to full, decadent cakes. They also specialize in a variety of globally-inspired kits, with exciting things to try, like Persian Love Cake and Mexican Pan de Muerto. They can be purchased individually at $24.99, or in a three-pack of international favorites. However, the fun doesn’t have to stop with just one baking adventure — BaKIT Box offers an exclusive, ongoing subscription box. The subscription box shipments come quarterly, and each is packed with three baking box kits featuring recipes from a variety of countries and cultures. Quarterly shipments take the stress out of planning family time — get your box, and you know it’s time to explore in the kitchen together again.
Whether just one box or a full subscription, BaKIT Box is the perfect kid- and family-friendly pick for this holiday season. It’s the subscription box gift that keeps on giving — an experience that families can take home and share together, all while learning something new and developing new skills in the kitchen. Their unique flavors transport you to distant lands and give children — and parents — the chance to try new and unique flavors for the first time. A hands-on activity perfect for the season, these baking box kits are also ideal for holiday parties or family gatherings.
Now that I’m older, and have a niece of my own, I can’t wait to share with her the very same moments I remember having with my mother years ago. And when I do, I know that I won’t have to deal with any of the oops-moments my mom weathered back then, with kits that remove all the stress from baking without taking away from the beautiful moments we share over it. There is something so powerful about coming together around food, especially during the holiday season, and the Bakit Box reminds us to do just that.
