Filling your kitchen cupboards with good quality and reliable bits of kit is easier than ever with our brilliant selection of kitchen bits at wilko, letting you tackle any recipe with confidence.

Kitchen Utensils

With a quality kitchen utensil in your hand, you can take on the world… well, the kitchen at least. For stirring sauces, frying onions, and much more, you won’t get far without a good old wooden spoon – probably the most-used kitchen utensil there is! Shop from our spoons & ladles range to find the set you need, as well as serving spoons for dishing up into your serving bowls. You’ll also find colanders, whisks, as well as mashers for making the ultimate mashed potatoes!

Your kitchen utensils and pots & pans go hand in hand, so shop the range today to get yourself fully kitted out. Why not get yourself sorted with a kitchen utensil set, with everything you need to get started? These are great for new homes, or going away to uni or college.

Mixing Bowls

From brownie baking to marinading, whisking, folding, soaking and brining, having a couple of mixing bowls close at hand has so many uses! We have glass mixing bowls, plastic bowls, as well as those lovely, decorated earthenware mixing bowls that everyone’s parents have – you know the ones.

Our mixing bowls are the perfect companion to any bakeware setup – grab yourself some kitchen scales, a baking tray, and a spatula for getting every last drop out of the bowl… and so you can lick the spoon. That’s very important.

Chopping Boards

Protect your work surfaces and your knives with a good chopping board, available in a great range of sizes and colours to suit your kitchen. You can’t get more classic than a wooden chopping board, and we’ve got loads of options for prepping veg, cutting bread, and all sorts of cutting needs. We also have plastic chopping boards as a lightweight alternative, available in sets so you can use different boards for different jobs. This will make sure your kitchen is squeaky clean and not at risk of cross contamination!

Sick of your chopping board sliding around on the work surface? Simply pop a damp square of kitchen roll underneath to hold it in place. For more brilliant pro tips like this, read our blog on 10 kitchen hacks to help you cook like a pro!
