KitchenAid stand mixer attachments – your buying guide

KitchenAid pasta attachments for homemade pasta 

Pasta cutters and roller 3-piece set

Fresh homemade pasta is wonderful and can be achieved with this stainless steel set. First, mix up some pasta dough in your KitchenAid mixer, and then roll it out into even sheets with the pasta roller. You can either make spaghetti or fettuccine strands with the professional-style cutters. (Note: you can buy the pasta roller separately).

Pasta press - 6 shapes

Pasta dinners are child’s play with this attachment for pasta making. Pick your tool from the bucatini, spaghetti, fusilli or macaroni pasta discs and then watch in wonder as the strands emerge. There’s a built-in wire cutter so you can make them as long as you like. 

Mixer attachments for wholesome meats

What’s for dinner tonight? How about a hearty meat-based dish made with a KitchenAid mixer attachment. You’ll know exactly what’s in each recipe and can be confident of the taste and quality of your home-cooked creations. 

Meat grinder in durable plastic

Grind meat to create fabulous gourmet burgers, sausages, meatballs or bolognaise with the stainless steel grinder attachment for your KitchenAid mixer. It quickly breaks down fresh ingredients to a fine or coarse texture. The food grinder can be used for hard cheese, herbs, onions, garlic, bread and more too. 

Meat grinder and sausage stuffer set in stainless steel

Go one step further and stuff sausages too! Available together with the metal meat grinder or as an extension pack for the plastic model, the sausage stuffer set is your secret to perfectly neat sausages. Whatever flavours you fancy, you can concoct sausages to match, with breakfast sausage links or Italian sausage, bratwurst or other larger links.

Mixer attachments for ice creams and frozen treats

Not just for summer, ices and sundaes are family favourites all year round, and sensational desserts too. Make yours in moments with stand mixer attachments created for frozen fun.   

Ice cream maker

Transform your kitchen into an ice cream parlour. The freeze bowl replaces your usual mixer bowl and is prepared by freezing the night before. Meanwhile, the dasher replaces your usual beater and churns up ingredients for a thick and creamy texture. Make up to 1.9L of ice cream to feast on.   

Shave ice attachment

The shave ice trend has been everywhere. It’s a breeze to make yourself with the KitchenAid shave ice attachment. You can freeze anything to make a ‘puck’ of ice and then shave it into your bowl or glass. Frozen cocktails, desserts, slushies, Italian granita.. experiment with colours and add a flower or petal garnish. 

Fruit & vegetable mixer attachments

A stand mixer may not spring to mind when it comes to making salads or veggie-rich dinners. But there are so many textures and styles you can achieve with your fresh fruit and vegetable produce — from shreds to sheets to juices and jams. 

Food processor for mixer

That sturdy mixer has an attachment hub which powers a food processor. Slice, dice, grate and cut into julienne strips without fiddling around. Your prep for tasty dishes will be fast and effective as you make sweet and savoury treats like colourful stir fries and apple tarts.

Vegetable slicer and shredder

Watch the neatly sliced or shredded foods tumble out of this KitchenAid attachment. You can process anything from carrots to chocolate with three cylinders. Salads, stir fries and hash browns are easier with this vegetable cutter and if you really love using it, there’s also an extension pack with 3 more cylinders for textures like fine grating.

Spiralizer to peel, core and slice

Who says healthy foods can’t be fun!? The spiralizer is a real crowd-pleaser, making twirls and spirals from seasonal foods. As well as peeling and coring, it creates strands in a circular motion for gorgeous plant-based dishes like zucchini spaghetti, curly fries or twirly salads. Why not cut your veggies this way for casseroles too? It looks great on the plate. 

Vegetable sheet cutter

You won’t want to miss KitchenAid’s vegetable sheet cutter. This ingenious mixer attachment makes satisfying sheets of potatoes, apples, zucchini and more. Swap pasta sheets for vegetable sheets in a vegan lasagne recipe, or roll them up for unusual canapes secured with a wooden sandwich pick.

Slow juicer for mixer

Squeeze the most out of your ingredients, literally. The slow juicer attachment has multiple pulp screens so you can control the final texture. From juices to sauces, jams and marinades, you can extract the nutrients and achieve the consistency you’re after. 

Orange juicer for mixer

Make fresh and zesty juice with lemons, oranges and grapefruits with a revolving juicer attachment. It simply pops on the stand mixer attachment hub and twists around, saving your wrists the effort.

Food grinder & strainer set

Veggie burgers, salsas, paté… it’s all possible with this nifty attachment set. Firstly, grind veggies, fish, meats, cheese, herbs or bread in the grinder for perfectly uniform results. Then, you can use the strainer to make smooth foods from cooked or soft fruit and vegetables. Ideal for baby foods, applesauce, jams and restaurant-style purées.

Baking attachments for delicious creations 

A KitchenAid stand mixer is any baker’s dream. It mixes and whips evenly in a fraction of the time and avoids aching arms. But did you know that it can do even more for you as well?

Sifter & scale attachment

Your baked treats will be consistently light and fluffy with the sifter and scale tool attached to your mixer. It accurately weighs and sifts dry ingredients like flour and baking powder, directly into the bowl. When you don’t need to sift, it works equally well for ingredients like choc chips or seeds. Baking is a piece of cake.

Grinder & cookie press attachment set

The food grinder attachment we’ve already looked at is perfect for biscuit dough too. Feed in your homemade dough and create fancy biscuits in 5 shapes instead of piping manually. It’s available as a cookie press extension if you already have the plastic grinder attachment in your cupboard (not compatible with the stainless steel grinder).

Bread bowl with baking lid

Who doesn’t want a kitchen filled with the smell of freshly baked bread? You can get it just right with the bread bowl attachment for the KitchenAid mixer. The all-in-one ceramic bowl replaces your usual 4.3 or 4.8L bowl for mixing and kneading dough. Then, leave it to proof before popping it in the oven.

Shake up your routine with mixer attachments for KitchenAid. Even if you never imagined you could make wild salmon burgers, create fusilli or invent new flavours of shave ice, you’ll be an expert in no time. Take a look at all the mixer attachments and get inspired to try them out.
