For Small Hands Baking Accessories Set Review

Tabitha was thrilled when she received this cute baker's hat and apron from For Small Hands.
(Yes, I know she doesn't look too thrilled. I am not sure if she was tired of me taking pictures or tired of waiting for her friend to do up the Velcro.)

Along with this cute outfit, we have the opportunity to try out this great set of 6 Silicone Baking cups. 

Silicone Baking Cups

Tabitha has enjoyed being able to put on her baker's apron and hat to help out in the kitchen. Somehow this outfit has made cooking with mommy just a little bit more fun. Even Amelia has had a chance to use the hat and apron. I just love it when the girls share so nicely.

Both the Baker's Hat and the Baker's Apron are child sized. The Hat fits children from ages 3-8 and the apron fits children from 3-5. Tabitha is technically a little old for the apron now, but it fits her well. Both the hat and the apron are very well made and they do up with Velcro so a child can easily put them on themselves and it is easily adjustable. The girls love to pull them out when we are getting ready to have Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen time or to help with dinner (though Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen occurs more frequently).


We used the Silicone Baking Cups to make cupcakes for Harold's birthday. 



I just love how colorful they are. 


As we only have 6, we had to use both the silicone cups and paper cups.


The bake time is the same as the regular cupcake papers. 

I thought they would look cute as balloons for the cake.


Unfortunately, I didn't realize that the cupcakes needed to be taken out right away to help them pop out cleanly. So, I decided to try it again with corn muffin mix.



They popped right out, though I did still have a bit of an issue with some of the corn muffin sticking to the cup. Not sure if I can do something a little differently or not. We are going to keep experimenting. Either way, the muffins tasted great.



The silicone baking cups can also be used in the microwave and put in the freezer. I can't wait to use them in their muffin tin meals, or try out a Bento style box.

All in all, I think these products are a great way to get kids helping out in the kitchen if they don't already do so.

Disclosure: I received the Baker's Hat, Baker's Apron and Silicone Baking Cups at no charge as a part of my Cupcake Craze Giveaway. I received no further compensation. This did not in any way influence my review. This review is my honest opinion and I only recommend products I use personally and feel will be a good products for my readers.

  13. My children love to play dress up. I normally go after Halloween and pick up any occupation or Disney character costumes at greatly reduced prices. I have not actually used any of the silicone baking products myself, but I have heard rave reviews about them. Thank you for your review.

  18. I love it, so cute and they can play dress up baker and then help in the kitchen when Mom or Dad is baking. I think it give a child a sense of feeling being important. I would make her the helper and decider on what to bake and how to decorate. She would love it!!!

  19. How cute! Anything that starts with putting on an apron will be right up my grandson's alley. He loves helping out in the kitchen (and you should've seen him when he got the apron from Lowe's for their kids workshops!). This is such a great idea to foster creativity and imagination in children.

  20. I have been a big fan of silicone baking cups, even though I only discovered them a few years ago...I'm a little slow. More importantly, I love her baker's apron and hat! Hurray for little hands helping out!
