Thanks to 3D printing, you can easily make many kitchen aids yourself. Some makers even develop their own creations that make cooking, baking and rinsing easier. Here is a selection of practical helpers for your kitchen!
One tip in advance: Please use food-safe filaments when printing, as the printed product comes into contact with food!
Pizza Cutter
Why buy a pizza cutter when you can print it in your favorite color! The cutting edge was printed with PETG, the handle with PLA.

Sugar Dispenser
This is a practical sugar dispenser for on the go, but it also facilitates dosing, for example of teaspoon units, when cooking and baking at home. Besides the common STL file format, Maker Alex3dPrintman also provides other formats like .c4d or .3ds.

Drainer
Drainage containers do not always have to be functional, but can also take on cooler shapes. Like this cute elephant, for example, where you can put your freshly washed cutlery to drain and watch the water run through its trunk into the sink.

Sink Scrubber
To work professionally in the kitchen, you also need clean work surfaces. Since sponges are known to store a bunch of bacteria, it makes sense to think about printing your own sponges. In any case, this one is super hygienic, durable, therefore also environmentally friendly, and of course also removes the dirt in your kitchen.

Toast Extractor
Who hasn´t experienced this before: The fresh toast jumps (if it runs well) warm out of the toaster slot and you can’t wait to eat it. But it is quite hot at first and one almost burns one’s fingers. With this toast extractor this misery has now come to an end!

“Chork”
“Chork” stands for chopstick and fork. If your guests can’t decide whether to eat with chopsticks or forks, just give them a self printed chork. Then they can choose the fork variant, or break off the upper part to use the sticks.
