If the bite-size candy variety at the grocery store’s got you down, it’s time to up your Halloween goodie game by baking your own sweet treats. QVC’s broad selection of curated baking products makes it easy and convenient to stock your kitchen for Halloween.

With a few key products haunting your kitchen, any home chef, from seasoned bakers to beginners, can make their house the best stop on a trick-or-treater’s route. QVC offers easy product discovery, photo and video demonstrations, and the ability to purchase products on your TV, mobile device, or computer.

Before you start tossing your ingredients in the cauldron, make sure your kitchen is properly stocked with these must-haves from KitchenAid, Ninja, Caraway, and more.

The rundown

  • A KitchenAid mixer is a must for big batches of baked goods
  • Ninja’s frozen treat maker complements the autumn chill
  • 10 Strawberry Street's attractive apple-shaped measuring cup set dresses up any fall kitchen aesthetic
  • Caraway’s bakeware set is everything you need to bake to perfection

Mix or Treat

Just about any baking recipe will require some serious mixing. You could do it by hand, but in order to get ready for the ghosts and ghouls in time, use the KitchenAid 7-Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer with Pastry Beater instead. This year-round workhorse can handle big and small batches to accommodate feasts for any season. With 11 speed options, you can tailor the intensity, which comes in handy when you’re working with delicate ingredients.

If that’s too much for you, downsize to the convenient and easy-to-use KitchenAid 7-Speed Digital Hand Mixer with Flex-Edge Beaters. It’s much smaller, so it’s easy to store. But it’s plenty powerful and produces excellent results that serve as the skeleton of your baking recipe.

Frightfully Frozen

Trick-or-treating is hard work. It’s easy to work up a sweat underneath that mask. A frozen treat is just the trick. Use the Ninja Creami Deluxe XL 11-in-1 Frozen Treat Maker to whip up milkshakes, ice cream, gelato, frozen yogurt, and even Italian ice. Simply add your ingredients to the included pints, freeze them overnight, and ‘creamify’ for awesome treats in mere minutes.

Witch’s Apple

All of this kitchen alchemy takes a careful eye and gentle touch. Get it right the first time using the 10 Strawberry Street Sliced Apple Measuring Cups. With many of the most common measurements you’ll need for your recipe right at the ready, this stackable apple also works as autumn kitchen decor.

Jack (o’lantern) of all trades

It’s all got to go into the fire eventually. When it’s time to pop your creations in the oven, the Caraway Home Non-Toxic Ceramic Non-Stick Mega Bakeware Set comes with everything you need to create the perfect Halloween treats. Each piece is oven-safe to 550ºF , and the nonstick ceramic coating ensures perfect pastries without the sticky hassle. The kit also includes two organizers so you can always find what you need in short order.
