Marble Rolling Pin
Is mom still using that rolling pin that’s older than you are? It’s time for a modern makeover. (Unless, of course, it’s a cherished heirloom.) Pick up a marble rolling pin, like this one ($25) from Crate & Barrel, that will make her want to use a rolling pin every day (and show it off as home decor when she’s not using it).
Why it made our list: Marble rolling pins are both gorgeous and functional — and this one comes with its own display stand for mom.
Le Creuset Dutch Oven
You can’t go wrong with gifting anything from Le Creuset. If mom loves baking bread or cooking one-pot dishes, get her a brand new dutch oven ($330) she can use every day.
Why it made our list: Le Creuset makes our favorite upscale Dutch oven. It lasts forever and looks beautiful, whether you’re displaying it on a counter or using it to make dinner.
Ninja Coffee Brewer with Auto iQ
If mom loves her daily dose of coffee, we recommend picking her up a brand new coffee maker ($150), ripe with cool features that can help her make the tastiest brew possible.
Why it made our list: This is the best coffee maker our test kitchen has used. It’s gorgeous, easy to use, and comes with a number of settings perfect for all coffee lovers.
OXO Spiralizer
If we could eat pasta for every meal, we would. But our bodies demand vegetables—and thankfully, spiralizers ($40) can help you turn your favorite vegetables into noodles, meaning mom can enjoy delicious and healthy zoodles at home.
Why it made our list: This spiralizer is one of our test kitchen’s favorite tools. It can work its way through many different types of veggies, plus you can buy attachments to form different shapes.
Pure Silk Sleep Mask
There’s one thing moms can always use more of: sleep. You can’t give mom the gift of sleep, but you can give her accessories that will make sleep come easier. This silk sleep mask ($50) from Nordstrom is comfy and sleek, and it’ll go perfectly in mom’s bedroom.
Why it made our list: This sleep mask is made from 100% silk and comes in a number of colors for moms of all tastes.
Thermapen Thermometer
The Thermapen ($99) isn’t any regular meat thermometer — it’s a high-quality kitchen tool that can provide near-instant temperature readings and transform your cooking process. Mom will be thrilled to add this to her collection.
Why it made our list: This is our favorite kitchen thermometer. The Thermapen works instantly and provides incredibly accurate readings, making it a must-have for seasoned chefs.
The Strawberry Classic
Who doesn’t love cake? Gift mom with a scrumptious strawberry shortcake ($50) from Milk Bar. It has three delicious layers of strawberry jam, creme fraiche frosting and fresh strawberries.
Why it made our list: Milk Bar makes incredibly decadent cakes. It’s a perfect present for those who have a sweet tooth but can’t make it to their local bakeries this month.
Mother’s Day Beauty Blooms Gift Set
Not sure what mom needs? Get her a little bit of everything with this gift set ($68) from Anthropologie. It comes with flower seeds, nail polish, perfume, facial cleanser and much more.
Why it made our list: This set has a little bit of everything. Sample sizes make it ideal for moms who like trying before they buy.
Paper Source “Best Mom Ever” Tea Towel
Show mom how much you love her by giving her a dish towel ($15) that tells her she’s the best mom ever. She’ll want to display it all year long.

Mama Knows Best Jute Wine Tote
This adorable wine tote ($88) not only features a saying your mother already knows by heart — Mama Knows Best — but it also allows her to comfortably carry several wine bottles during her next wine run.
Why it made our list: This tote from Anthropologie is good for the environment and cute enough to keep displayed on a kitchen hook all year long.
Elaina Birthstone Bracelet
Instead of getting mom traditional jewelry this year, pick up a beautiful bracelet that shows off a little piece of her personality. This birthstone bracelet ($50) from Nordstrom is perfect, as it allows her to subtly and stylishly show off her birthstone.
Why it made our list: We love the simple elegance of this stylish piece of jewelry, and mom will, too.
KitchenAid Artisan Series Stand Mixer
KitchenAid dominates the stand mixer market for a reason. These mixers are timeless, gorgeous and long-lasting, so if mom doesn’t already own one, it’s time to get her our test kitchen’s favorite, the KitchenAid Artisan Series ($279).
Why it made our list: This is our test kitchen’s choice for the best stand mixer. You can get it in nearly any color, meaning mom can match her kitchen walls or other favorite appliances.
The Truffle Trio
If mom loves cake but prefers to enjoy her desserts in small portions, pick up a trio of truffles ($70) from Milk Bar. This set comes with strawberry shortcake, birthday cake and chocolate birthday cake truffles, ensuring moms of all tastes get to enjoy their favorite flavors.
Why it made our list: You can’t go wrong with sweets, and this assortment features so many varieties that it makes a perfect present when you’re not sure which mom will love best.
Nostalgia Eau De Parfum
Perfume is another staple Mother’s Day gift. This perfume ($24) from Anthropologie comes in a one-ounce bottle, so mom can try it out before buying the big bottle. It’s inexpensive enough that she can stock up guilt-free.
Why it made our list: This perfume comes in four scents and small bottles, so you can pick the best combination for your mother.
Lodge Cast Iron Skillet
Cast iron is an incredible kitchen tool. Every chef needs a cast iron skillet, which is why we recommend the Lodge skillet ($27) for mom. It’s not expensive, but it is life-changing — and allows mom to start making some delicious cast iron skillet recipes.
Why it made our list: Our test kitchen thinks this $27 skillet is the best value.
