What to include in a baking-themed gift basket

Here are some essentials and inspiration for how to make and what to include in baking-themed gift baskets for Mother’s Day:
- Basket that doubles as a kitchen storage basket after gifting (optional: Add a Mother’s Day-themed label with your Cricut, like this design I made for mine, available for you to use in Cricut Design Space)

- Peanut butter
- French rolling pin
- Cotton towels set (this striped blue and white set has a French pastry chef vibe)

- Whisk and spatula (I love this rose gold and pink set to match the other rose gold/copper items in the basket, or you could use blue to match the towels)
- Cookie scoop
- Pretty apron
