Do you wish you had more counter space? It’s always a balancing act to decide which appliances you need on your counter top and how much space you need to keep clear. We’ve wanted to get a KitchenAid stand mixer for some time, but we don’t have a big kitchen. That’s why I was so excited to hear that KitchenAid now makes the Artisan Mini Stand Mixer. It’s for all of us who have been wishing for a KitchenAid stand mixer, but didn’t want to sacrifice counter space.

This is also great for anyone in an apartment, those who are down-sizing, and young couples starting out (this would be an ideal gift). The more I think about it, this mixer is perfect for almost everyone, since most of us don’t have extra space in our kitchens.

The innovative Artisan Mini is a new addition to the KitchenAid stand mixer family with the same iconic design, and best of all, the same power as KitchenAid’s other stand mixers. It just comes in a slightly smaller package.

I have the Artisan Mini Stand Mixer in black, which matches my other small appliances, but it comes in 10 colors to match any decor. Or, you can choose a fun color, like pink, bright yellow, or “hot sauce.”

If you’re short on counter space, you’ll love that the Artisan Mini is 20% smaller and 25% lighter than the KitchenAid stand mixer you’re used to. I love how easy it is to move around. If you don’t want to store it on your counter top, this mixer will fit into a cupboard.

The Artisan Mini Stand Mixer features 10 mixing speeds and comes with a coated flat beater, dough hook, and six-wire whip. If you’re into making your own pasta, juicing fruits and veggies, or want to spiralize vegetables, you can buy additional attachments. 

There’s no need to be skeptical about the smaller size. The Mini Stand Mixer can make up to five dozen cookies in its 3.5 quart stainless steel bowl. It’s been more than large enough to make any of the recipes we’ve tried, including breads, dinner rolls, muffins, and cookies. And, since we’ve gotten it, we’ve been baking more often, including delicious homemade bread and rolls. I don’t have to tell you how much nicer it is to have homemade bread and treats. With the KitchenAid Artisan Mini, making those treats just got a whole lot easier!
