YAY Debi – Boysenberry IS a fun color! Happy baking this Halloween!
This giveaway is sponsored by me.
I’d love the Boysenberry Mixer! My favorite color ever!! I’d make banana nut bread, not really scary, but really good and that’s what counts!! :)
I love the boysenberry color!!
pumpkin pie pops and cake pops!!
I love the boysenberry one! I plan on making (and decorating) Halloween sugar cookies, my kids get more excited making them than eating them!
I would LOVE to win the Boysenberry mixer and I would make this amazing looking Black Velvet Cake with Orange Icing that I pinned on pintrest!
I love the boysenberry, I will be making a Blurred Line cake. Black and White lines. thanks
Boysenberry for sure !!! Sugar cookies in the shape of pumpkins for my son’s preschool party.
I like the Tangerine! I just got Candy Corn M&Ms from target, so i’m going to have to make yummy cookies or brownies with them.
Tangerine, no question! I love orange. I want to make peanut butter cookies, not because it’s fall, but because I can’t get enough of them!
I would love the contour silver to help me with all the pumpkin treats I plan on making.
I’d love the Boysenberry! And I have pumpkin pie cheesecake on my list of fall baking!
I love the Onyx Black, because black goes with absolutely everything. It would be a beautiful addition to any counter top in any kitchen! Although I must admit I do LOVE some of the other colors because they are unique and would add a nice color pop anywhere. Tangerine is just as high on my list… I’d say running side by side with Onyx Black! :) Boysenberry is a close second. Kitchenaid’s are such gems in the kitchen and I feel lucky for having a shot at winning one! Thanks Bakerella! Definitely would be using this to make some adventure ingredient bars for the Scharffen Berger contest! :) Happy Winning Everyone!
Orange is so my color, so Tangerine is my pick. As for baking plans, all things pumpkin, and gingerbread zombies top the list.
The Onyx Black is quite sharp. I’m looking forward to making scotcheroos very, very soon.
I would go with white and plan on making pumpkin chocolate chip cookies.
Thanks for this giveaway. This is seriously awesome of you!
Hi !!! I´s love the contour silver <3 and I plan on making pupmkin cake, i like so much ;)
Boysenberry. In the spirit of Fall I think I’ll bake a pumpkin pie and perhaps some stout caramel corn.
I love the Boysenberry!! I always seem to be making chocolate chip cookies!!
Cake balls of course! I would love the white one!
If I really won it’d be a tough choice but I gotta say when I saw the tangerine in the big picture it was stunning. Boysenberry is pretty too. I saw chocolate chip cookies on Pinterest where they had used a toothpick and after baking drag the chocolate chip to make legs of a spider. It totally looks like a real spider baked into a cookie. I did a double take when I saw it the first time.
I would go after the Contour Silver! First thing I would make using it??? My pumpkin cheesecake, hands down my family’s favorite desert.
contour silver.
and i would make some pumpkin cupcakes!
I like the Contour silver or Boysenberry!
Love to make cakes, cupcakes and cakepops :)
Boysenberry is gorgeous!! And I love my chocolate chunk marshmallow brownies!
The grey is the color I’d pick, but I love them all. I want to make a spider cake with peanut m& ms for the spider body and using icing for the legs and the spider web. It will be a test for my ‘drawing with icing’ skills!
Oh, that boysenberry! Ooh! Keeping the treats simple this Halloween, a circle pan of Rice Krispie Treats decorated like a jack-o’-lantern. Or maybe a batch of owls made from chocolate-covered pretzels, with opened oreo and black m&m eyes and an orange m&m beak.
I LOVE all the fun things you do and make. You are my inspiration, even at 58! LOVE TO YOU!
I love the Boysenberry Mixer.
Keep up all the Great Posts! Lovin it!
Those are fantastic colours. I would the silver one.
I like the black.
I am making Halloween cake pops, probably ghost and pumpkin. Thanks for your great ideas and recipes!
Contour silver. I would make my spicy pumpkin cookies.
I love that silver one! I’m looking forward to making Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cakes! Thanks for the chance to win.
The canopy green one is speaking to me… and it’s saying it would like to help me make marshmallow tombstones.
My favorite treat for Halloween and into the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday is Pumpkin Spice muffins. I dress them up with cream cheese frosting to make them even more decadent. It is easy and quick and everybody loves them. One spice cake mix and one 14oz can of plain pumpkin! A half hour or less in the oven and great eats! I love all the colors for the mixers and white too! It would speed up the muffin process for me even more!
The Tangerine model is pretty cute! I’d love to win that. This fall, I’m really excited to start making pumpkin-flavored treats, especially some pumpkin pie crumb bars.
Metallic Chrome to go with my new kitchen……My children’s #1 requested treat is homemade snickers bars.
I love!! the boysenberry and the onyx. I have made pumpkin scones with a sugar and pumpkin spice glaze. I also plan on making some ghost sugar cookies with my girls, 3 of them :) Some mummy hot dogs, scary slime cupcakes and witchy cakeballs :) I love this time of year I am a baking addict!! I love your books and website. I am on here salutary to get new fun ideas. Oh and I want to make some mini pumpkin pies this year its my first thanksgiving at my home and I think it would be so cute if everyone had there own little pie :))
I love the tangerine! Perfect for my kitchen!
Spider truffles will be on the table this Halloween :)
I would love the canopy green! And I’m excited to make pumpkin anything- but specifically pumpkin chocolate chip cookies!
I think I’d like the Onyx Back one.
Ooh! I bet the contour silver would look great in my kitchen!! I’m still searching for this years Halloween treat, but I have really enjoyed making meringue “bone” cookies in past years!
Love the Boysenberry!
I would make some pumpkin soup bread bowls to serve our chili in for Halloween night!
I would LOVE the boysenberry one! I haven’t gotten far with Halloween treats. My oldest has a birthday before Halloween & I’m working on costumes right now. :)
I am SOOOO excited to start baking for the holidays! I really love the contour silver :)
I love the canopy green! I think it would be great left out all year long :) Hmmmm…. Right now scotcheroos are sounding amazing!!
Canopy Green!!! Soooo cute!!!!!!!
Definitely the boysenberry one! I haven’t been able to make cupcakes because of my broken hand mixer, so I’d make all sorts of monster, vampire, and jack o lantern cupcakes!
Those are pretty great colors! I’m definitely torn between Canopy Green and Tangerine. A Halloween staple for me are shortbread witches fingers tinted green with an almond for a nail and maybe a little red gel for that extra gross factor. Delicious and disturbing!
I am in love with the Boysenberry! The first thing I would make with it would be some cinnamon cupcakes with an apple butter filling!
The Contour Silver color looks beautiful and classic! This time of year I always enjoy making (and eating) caramel apples!
I love the boysenberry color. I am tying out some pumpkin muffins this week.
I love the boysenberry mixer, and would love to make sugar cookies with it!
Contour Silver… chocolate cupcakes with chocolate candy surprise inside…
I like the canopy green and would love to make Peanut Butter S*x with it. Graham tarts filled with a creamy pb mixture, topped with chocolate drizzle and honey roasted peanuts. The name was not my idea!! :)
Tangerine would look FABULOUS with my kitchen decor!
I’m torn between the tangerine and the green. Probably the tangerine, just for the spark of color.
I’m going to be making gingerdead men cookies as well as probably cupcakes and maybe some cake pops and other cookies too. I tend to get carried away. Plus my dh is a 5th grade teacher so I like to make fun stuff for them.
Contour Silver would be awesome in my kitchen!!!
I’d like the boysenberry one! And I am really looking forward to making peanut butter “eyeballs”. I make them every year – my family loves them!
I love!! the boysenberry and the onyx. I have made pumpkin scones with a sugar and pumpkin spice glaze. I also plan on making some ghost sugar cookies with my girls, 3 of them :) Some mummy hot dogs, scary slime cupcakes and witchy cakeballs :) I love this time of year I am a baking addict!! I love your books and website. I am on here salutary to get new fun ideas. Oh and I want to make some mini pumpkin pies this year its my first thanksgiving at my home and I think it would be so cute if everyone had there own little pie :))

I’d love the gray……. I plan on making pumpkin cookies in various Halloween shapes for a Halloween party I’m going to!

Contour Silver please! OMG mom would be so happy to have one!

It’s hard to pick just one, they are all so neat, but I’d want Boysenberry!
I would love the boysenberry! I have really been hooked on making orange rolls this season. Soft sugar cookies are always a favorite at Halloween time too!
The Boysenberry is a dream. (I also love the tangerine!!)
I like the Boysenberry but would probably choose the Gray
Tangerine! I’d make chocolate crinkle cookies, the family sure does love ’em!
Boysenberry is obviously the best. I definitely need a mixer that matches my coat and purse. Pumpkin everything will be made.
I’d love the Boysenberry or the Onyx Black.
I would love the Tangerine one.
I just made cake pops for the first time last week so I will definitely be making some cute ones for Halloween for my son’s class :)
I would absolutely love the Boysenberry mixer!!
We are having a bake off for Halloween at work and I am planning on making some wicked sugar cookies
Boysenberry would be nice to have.. I would make red velvet cheese cake…
I’m pretty in love with the Tangerine… such a bright and beautiful color! My kids have been asking for Ghost Cake this Halloween (it’s our annual tradition) and anything chocolate is of course a must :).
Probably some pumpkin shaped rice krispie treats AND pumpkin chip cookies. Onyx black OR Canopy Green. Thanks little lady!
Boysenberry. I am making silly monster treats for my sons class.
onyx black, very practical!
i’m going to make chocolate cupcakes with a dirt pudding filling with green frosting, crumbled cookies, and a candy molded tombstone and bones for halloween!
Would love the Tangerine one. It’s so bright. I’m thinking of making a two layer cake, one layer vanilla with orange tinting and one layer chocolate.
What an awesome giveaway, thanks. I’d love the white one. If I get the chance to make a Halloween treat it would probably be chocolate shortbreads decorated with some Halloween themes.
Pierrette

Boysenberyy!! Would def match my halloween themed kitchen, and im thinkinh candy corn cake pops!!! :))
Halloween is my favorite holiday! I would love the white mixer and I would use it to make peanut butter cups that I turn into spiders using pretzel legs and googly eyes!
Boysenberry! And, I love to eat pumpkin bars.
Ooh…I’m saying onyx black. It’s spooky this time of year and perfect for year round baking! Would like to make some yummy chocolate/peanut butter cupcakes for Halloween.
Oh man, they’re so pretty! I would go with Canopy Green or Boysenberry I think…as if I would say no to any of them! I want to make some meringue ghosts for Halloween – and my hand mixer is on the blink so this would be ideal!
I would love the Boysenberry color. I love KitchenAid mixers. I,m not making any one thing for Halloween;my Grandkids have already informed me they will be over to bake all kinds of goodies.
The Contour Silver is gorgeous! Every Halloween I make devil’s food cookies with a candy corn in the middle. My Mom made them every year when I was growing up and they are SO easy and SO addictive!
OMG I have wanted one of these for SO long… I am making decorated sugar spice cookies for Halloween and of course Christmas! I also have a recipe for spooky Dookie peanut butter bars…. If I win, I would love an onyx one! Pick me, pick me!! :)

An ONXY BLACK forest cake with BOYSENBERRY filling, WHITE fluffy icing and sparkle of COUNTOUR SILVER sprinkle on this halloween is somehow not yet into it. I should put some CANOPY GREEN leaves and TANGERINE pumpkin as decoration to the cake will do. Do not forget the GREY and METALLIC CHROME ribbons around the bottom. Wallah!!
My favorite color for the new KitchenAid stand mixer is black onyx. I would love to make pumpkin cakepops mmmmmm ……
I will love the boysenberry. I am planning to bake different kinds of pumpkin treats. I started yesterday with soft pumpkin cookies.
Boysenberry! Love it. Sure beats my off brand hand mixer when making cookies with the kids.
I love the contour silver color – it would look great filled with cookie dough!!
Thanks for the great giveaway!
I LOVE the canopy green. It matches NOTHING in my kitchen, but oh my, it is gorgeous. Thanks!
I am teaching my eleven yer-old daughter Olivia how to make homemade icing. Her favorite colour is the mixer in TANGERINE. We would love to make pumpkin chocolate chips muffin with homemade cream cheese icing :) for her dad and brothers.
Can’t wait to try ALL of your Halloween themed recipes for a charity bake sale we’re having at work….and the mixer in Contour Silver or White would really help me! ;o) Thanks Bakerella x

I would enjoy having the white mixer, white looks great with any decor and always looks crisp. I love all the recipes in the mags right now, but can’t make up my mind.

Hard to choose a color since they’re all great, but I think I would go with the Contour Silver and bling it up a bit. (of course, to have a different color for every holiday would be the bomb!). I would make some yummy snicker-doodles with my granddaughter – we always bake together! Thank you!
Tangerine is calling my name… to try my first attempt at some homemade cinnamon rolls to go with some chili, since the weather is starting to cool off. Yum!
