Gold Mixing Bowl in Stainless Steel, 7 Sizes from 20cm to 32cm
This gold mixing bowl is a deep, round stainless steel bowl with a shiny gold mirror-polished finish and a wide, smooth rolled rim. It comes in seven sizes, 20cm, 22cm, 24cm, 26cm, 28cm, 30cm and 32cm, each sold on its own, so you can pick one for a single job or build a matching set for the whole kitchen.
It is made for everyday work: mixing flour and cake batter, tossing salads, combining ingredients, washing vegetables and marinating. The gold finish also makes it handsome enough to bring straight to the table as a serving bowl for salad, fruit or rice.

Which size to choose
The 20cm and 22cm bowls suit eggs, dressings, marinades and small bakes. The 24cm and 26cm sizes are the everyday family bowls for a sponge cake, a pancake batter or a side salad. The 28cm and 30cm bowls give room for bread dough, a big green salad or washing a bag of spinach. The 32cm gold mixing bowl is the one for batch baking, large salads for a party or a family-sized fruit bowl.
Because each size is sold separately, you can start with one and add more. Different sizes nest inside each other for storage.
Mixing and baking
A deep bowl with a rounded base is what makes mixing comfortable: a whisk or spatula reaches every part of the curve, and flour and sugar stay inside instead of spilling over the rim. Stainless steel does not hold grease or smells, which is why bakers prefer it for whipping egg whites and cream; wipe the bowl with a little lemon juice first for the best volume.
Steel is light and does not break, so it is a good choice when children help in the kitchen. Chill the bowl in the fridge for ten minutes before whipping cream on a warm day.
Prep and serving
Use a gold mixing bowl to soak rice or lentils, marinate chicken overnight in the fridge under a plate or cling film, or keep chopped vegetables together before cooking. When the cooking is done, the same bowl can go on the table for salad, rice, pasta or fruit, and the gold finish looks smart on a buffet or at a party.
For a dinner party, a pair of matching bowls in different sizes, one for salad and one for bread, gives the table a coordinated look without buying a separate serving set.
Care and cleaning
Wash the bowl in warm soapy water with a soft sponge and dry it straight away to keep the mirror polish bright. Rinse off salty or acidic food such as vinegar, lemon or tomato soon after use. Avoid steel wool and scouring powders, which scratch a polished surface.
Stack bowls with a sheet of kitchen paper between them if you keep several sizes nested together, so the gold surfaces do not rub.
Why stainless steel
Stainless steel is hygienic, durable and does not crack, chip or stain, so a gold mixing bowl will last far longer than plastic and is far lighter than glass or ceramic. It handles warm and cold ingredients and is easy to clean, which is why steel bowls are the standard in professional kitchens, restaurants and catering.
Building a set
Most cooks find three bowls cover nearly everything: a small one for eggs and dressings, a medium one for batters and marinades, and a large one for dough and salad. With seven sizes on offer, you can choose exactly the gaps you need, for example 20cm, 26cm and 32cm, and add more later. Because every gold mixing bowl shares the same finish and rolled rim, a mix of sizes still looks like a matching set on an open shelf.
Nested together, the bowls take up roughly the space of the largest one, which matters in a small kitchen.
Recipes to try
A simple Victoria sponge comes together in a 24cm or 26cm bowl: cream butter and sugar, beat in eggs, fold in flour, then divide between two tins. A 30cm or 32cm bowl is the one for kneading and proving a loaf or a batch of naan dough, covered with a tea towel. For a summer party, toss a large salad with leaves, cucumber, tomatoes and a lemon dressing in the biggest gold mixing bowl and take it straight to the table.
For Eid or a family celebration, the bowls are handy for marinating meat for kebabs, mixing a big bowl of fruit chaat, or soaking rice for biryani.
A gift for bakers
A gold mixing bowl, or a small nest of two or three sizes, makes a cheerful present for a keen baker, a new home or a wedding list, especially in a kitchen with brass taps or gold handles. Add a whisk, a spatula and a favourite recipe card, and the gift is ready to use straight away.
