Throughout the years, I have developed a passion for cooking and baking. While I had my fair share of experimental recipes and even baked mishaps as I was growing up, I wouldn’t say I was as passionate as I am now. I’m not sure if that’s because I simply love food and love to eat or for wanting to serve delicious homemade meals and dessert to my husband. What I do know is that I have been eyeing the KitchenAid Artisan – designer series or if possible, the KitchenAid Professional. Most women who have gotten married has this beauty on their wedding registry. Since we never really had a ceremony, nor a party – this mixer had to stay on my wish list.
Yes, I’ve always wanted one. Except for the fact that the widely popularized mixers range between $399.99 all the way up to $599.99! So you can understand my hesitation from trying to have one for quite some time. Little did I know, I was really missing out big time!
A few weeks back, my mom and I had a little chat over lunch. I was enjoying a delicious corn bread when she asked: “how come you still haven’t gotten yourself a mixer?” — that made me pause and thought to myself, my birthday is coming up, and maybe this is the perfect time to finally get one. I’ve searched online and found out that KitchenAid released a mini version last year! I can’t believe I have missed that information. I’ve also discovered that it is compatible with all the existing KitchenAid mixer attachments! Now that’s neat and convenient! Especially I am not a big fan of bulky appliances.
As most of you know by now, we have a little one on the way. But it’s not like we will be serving bigger meals anytime soon. This mixer is the perfect addition to every kitchen and would easily fit in a limited counter space. The mini is just right for making smaller batches of dishes or desserts.
Here’s a quick comparison, the popular KitchenAid Artisan holds 5 quarts, weighs a whopping 26 pounds and and takes up a lot of counter space! Compared to the mini which holds 3.6 quarts, weighs only 18 pounds and is 20% smaller as well as 25% lighter than the original Artisan! Despite the noticeably smaller dimension, don’t discount this mixer just yet — because it is mightily packed with 10 mixing speeds, pre-packaged with a coated flat beater, dough hook and 6-wire whip for only $329.99!!! Believe it or not, you can make up to 5 dozen cookies in its 3.6-quart stainless steel bowl!
After finding out about the KitchenAid Artisan Mini, I just knew I found the perfect small appliance addition into our home. Now we officially have an iconic symbol seen in every American kitchen. To top it all, this innovative mixer comes in 10 different finishes and works perfectly with the following KitchenAid attachments available for stand mixers.
Ready to avail one for yourself? How about as a gift for a loved one? BestBuy currently has an amazing offer for this mighty mini – free shipping (on orders $35 and up), 6 months financing, and a 2-year geek squad product replacement for $49.99. Check it out here » http://bby.me/c58l
Happy mixing!

June 10, 2017I would love to have one! My kitchen is rather small so the mini is perfect for me! My daughter got a larger one for her bday before she moved into her own place and we loved having use of it. When she moved out she took it of course haha so now I need my own. The mimi is perfect for me.
Joanna @ Everyday Made Fresh
June 10, 2017I just received my first Kitchenaid mixer before Christmas. They are the best stand mixers around! I love the idea of a mini version for those without a lot of kitchen/storage space. And it’s perfect for those that don’t use it all the time.

June 11, 2017I’d love a kitchenaid – definitely hope my man buys me one for Christmas this year – or they decide to sponsor me LOL! Those cupcakes look so tasty…

June 11, 2017I’ve had my KitchenAid mixer for years and I love it. Back then there was only a couple color choices available but I love how there’s so many different colors to choose from nowadays .

Jessica Joachim
June 13, 2017I have been wanting a Kitchen Aid mixer forever. My old cheaper brand one bit the dust the other day so maybe this is a good excuse to convince hubs to get me one for my upcoming birthday! Plus I love the colors.
Rachel

Pam
June 13, 2017Wow!! So many awesome attachments!! I love that it’s smaller than the original mixer, but still just as useful. Thanks for sharing.
Amanda
June 15, 2017I really don’t know if I have a kitchen tool that I love as much as my KitchenAid mixer. The only problem is that it is so heavy…I think this would be a great solution to that problem!
Journa Ramirez
June 15, 2017My eldest daughter is interested and baking and I’d like to have different tools that could help her maintain the desire to cook/bake. This looks great!
Cindy Ingalls
June 15, 2017I’ve been wanting one of these mixers for so long, but don’t really have the space for the big one. So excited to see there is a small version that would be perfect for me.

Jalisa Harris
June 16, 2017The mini is super cute. Plus we dont have much space in our house so the mini would be perfect for us.
uprunforlife
June 16, 2017I have secretly wanted one of these for several years now. Not sure why because I don’t bake a ton and I am afraid that I would let it sit under the counter to collect dust. I have always wanted to learn how to decorate cakes all pretty.
Marielle Altenor
June 16, 2017Omg you can do so much with this mini Kitchenaid!! I know what I’m getting for Christmas lol
Tabitha Shakespeare
June 16, 2017This looks like just what I need for our tiny kitchen! I love how sleek and modern it looks!
Natalie
June 16, 2017KitchenAid is such a great brand! I have a handheld mixer from them, how nice would it be to upgrade to a standalone one!
Nicole Shillings
June 16, 2017Finally! One that will fit on my counter top! I just added this t my birthday wish list! So fantastic!
Donah @ SJB
June 16, 2017I guess it is time to replace my beater. I really had issues with the brand I am using now, aside that it is really so messy, the bowl is way too low, the options for speed is very limited. I wanna try this one!
adriana
June 16, 2017I loove my Kitchenaid! It’s seriously one of the best kitchen tools ever. You can do so many things with it and let’s be honest, the color you choose makes your kitchen look so pretty! 😉 Haha! Your pictures are great!
jennifer
June 17, 2017I love this color! Kitchenaids are really the best – I’m not sure where I’d be (cooking wise anyway!) without mine haha! I love the size!
Victoria heckstall
June 17, 2017It such a wonderful post. I am glad to read this. So helpful. I like it!
Heather
June 17, 2017I love this so much! I don’t have the space on my counter to really keep out my big mixer and in all honesty, don’t use it enough to warrant it sitting there. But this would be perfect on my counter!
lydia
June 17, 2017I think the little kitchenaids are so cute and helpful! A ktichenaid is SO helpful, I use one evrytime I bake!
Heather
June 17, 2017This is the mixer my mom has (I have the larger one). Although she has a much older version, she got it back in the 70’s and it is still a powerhouse in her kitchen. Such a great product!
Charlotte
June 17, 2017ooo this looks amazing and I am already thinking about all the baking I could do with this! So professional looking!
Cassie Tucker
June 17, 2017My husband was awesome and bought me a full sized Kitchenaid Mixer one year for Christmas and I have loved it. I’m so glad that they have made a smaller, more affordable version so everyone can experience their awesomeness.
Glenda
June 17, 2017The Kitchen aid product artisan mini sounds amazing! It will definitely help me with baking and cooking.

June 17, 2017I LOVE my Kitchenaid mixer but it is so big and bulky I rarely get it out! I may need to look into one of these minis!!
Rachel Catherine
June 18, 2017I totally want this for the pasta capability alone! It looks so wonderful and I’ve always dreamed of making my own pasta.
Brittany
June 19, 2017Ooh I love the one I have. I have a normal one, but I don’t think I could live without it. I use it every day. Sometimes it’s just to whip eggs, but now I want to try the pasta feature!
Leslie Hernandez
June 20, 2017This is so cute I dont bake much but I probably will the day I have kids!! This is a really nice option for someone starting out and it easy to put away because it’s small.
shannon Gurnee
June 20, 2017I love the KitchenAid Brand. This mini looks like one I would love to add to our kitchen.
