KitchenAid Mixer for Mother’s Day [giveaway]

This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Rachel J. – #482

I’ve shared some of my favorite Mother’s Day gift picks with you over the last week in the GoodLife Eats 2011 Mother’s Day Kitchen Gift Guide, each gift suggestion featuring it’s very own giveaway. If you haven’t had a chance to enter all of them, head over here and take a quick look.

Is there a better gift (or giveaway) for Mom this Mother’s Day than a KitchenAid Cook for the Cure® Edition Artisan® Series Stand Mixer in this pretty light pink? I think not!

KitchenAid Stand Mixers rule as the crowning jewel of kitchen appliances, as they should – beautiful with their glossy colors that make them perfect for displaying counter-top.

With dozens of colors to choose from, it will be easy to find a color to match Mom’s personality and kitchen. A gift she’s sure to treasure for years to come. I’m just a teensy bit in love with the “Ice” color, it matches my site’s logo so nicely and goes so well with the new paint in the kitchen.

KitchenAid’s reputation isn’t just built on their good looks. They’re incredibly useful appliances for the home cook. Beyond being your kitchen work-horse for whipping up batches of chocolate chip cookies, fresh bread, and other delights, KitchenAid offers and array of attachments turning this handy mixer into dozens of other appliances.

Does Mom already own her own stand mixer? Perhaps instead, she’d love the adventure of making her own, homemade pasta or stuffing her own sausage. Last year my mom handed down her pasta maker, meat grinder, and cheese grater attachments to me and they’ve been lots of fun to experiment with.

10 years ago this year, KitchenAid partnered with Susan G. Komen for the Cure® and has helped raise $8 million for the fight against breast cancer.

KitchenAid has exciting things in store for 2011 in conjunction with the special 10 year anniversary. First, the launch of a new, gorgeous Cook for the Cure® color in the coming weeks – a 5 quart Artisan® Series Stand Mixer in Raspberry Ice, an bright, electric color with a metallic finish and glass bowl. And second, the commitment to donate a minimum of $450,000 to breast cancer research in 2011.

Support the breast cancer movement this Mother’s Day. Each pink product purchased and registered will generate a donation of up to $50 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure®. Be sure to register any purchased pink products here. To see their complete Cook for the Cure® Pink Product Collection, visit shopkitchenaid.com.

Happy Mother’s Day!
