KitchenAid Goes Pink for Cook For the Cure

KitchenAid Home Appliances and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation have teamed up to offer pink appliances, which would make fabulous gifts. And if you buy either the pink KitchenAid Blender, Coffee Mill, Tea Kettle or Stand Mixer (which retail for $129.99, $99.99, $49.99 and $249.99, respectively,) KitchenAid will donate between $5 to $50 for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. (If you spring for the Mixer, they donate $50, for example).

Ok, everyone knows that the big KitchenAid mixer is what all the professional chefs use. And you know it comes in lots of colors and will last a lifetime. Unfortunately, we don't know a soul with a pink kitchen. So, we think a great gift is the pink coffee grinder and/or the tea kettle. There's not quite so much pink on the tea kettle (just the handle), so even if your kitchen is stainless steel and cobalt blue, it won't offend. And it's for a great cause. Think pink!

Update: This collection has become hard to find years later. You can still see the pink mixer on Wasserstrom. Here a look at the collection from a QVC video:
