    Best Thermomix Accessories

    Here I round up some of the best Thermomix Accessories to make your life easier and help you make the most of your Thermomix.

    Thermomix with accessories

    Now that you have a Thermomix you will probably find that you will start cooking a lot more things from scratch. Things like stock paste, or homemade sauces like hollandaise or pesto are all so easy in the Thermomix.

    Or maybe you will get into making yoghurt or jam. And chances are you will bake more - you may even get hooked on bread baking or cake making!

    Whether you need additional storage containers for all those extras you are making, new baking tins or just need to know what is the best brush to clean your Thermomix, I take a good look at all the options here.

    What Accessories come with the Thermomix?

    When you get your Thermomix, you will already have some accessories in the box with the Thermomix machine. These include:

    • Simmering basket
    • Butterfly whisk
    • Varoma (steaming basket)
    • Measuring cup
    • Splash guard
    • Spatula
    • Basic cookbook

    Thermomix always run a promotion that includes certain extra accessories, so depending on when you buy your Thermomix, you may also receive some other inclusions.

    Where to Buy Thermomix Accessories

    There are some accessories that you will need to buy directly from Thermomix - for example, an extra Thermomix bowl and blade or the blade cover and peeler, as you can't buy them anywhere else.

    Other accessories are recommended to buy directly from Thermomix - for example a slider board, as you may void your warranty if you use a product not specifically designed for and made by Thermomix.

    However there are plenty of accessories for the Thermomix - for example cleaning brushes and spatulas, and of course baking or storage accessories that you can happily buy from other stores, where they may either be better quality or cheaper than buying directly from Thermomix.

    I explore all the options below.

    Useful Accessories for the Thermomix

    Second Bowl & Blade

    Having a second bowl and blade can be a massive time saver and is often the first thing people recommend for an additional item for the Thermomix.

    Whether you are making a recipe with multiple steps that requires cleaning the bowl in between steps or making multiple recipes in one day, having a second bowl will save you valuable cleaning time.

    It can also be handy if you are catering for allergies or different dietary needs to avoid cross-contamination.

    Glider Board

    Thermomix finally listened to their customers and have released a Thermomix-made slider board. This allows you to easily move your Thermomix around your kitchen surfaces without upsetting the scales.

    Available in white, black or beechwood to match your kitchen design.

    Click here to read more on the Thermomix website.

    Bowl Brush

    Having a round cleaning brush is essential for quickly and effectively cleaning your Thermomix bowl.

    MR.SIGA Long Handle Bottle Brush, Flexible Scrub Brush for Water Bottles, Glasswares, Mugs, Black, 2 Pack

    You can buy the official one from Thermomix, but any strong-bristled round brush will do. Look for a sturdy brush with a long handle - even a toilet brush will work!

    Click here to buy a round cleaning brush.

    Blade Brush

    A small bottle brush or straw brush is ideal for cleaning underneath the Thermomix blades.

    Hiware Drinking Straw Cleaner Brush Kit - (3-Size) 9-Piece Extra Long Pipe Cleaners, Straw Cleaning Brush for Tumbler, Sippy Cup, Bottle and Tube

    You will find that some food can get stuck under the blades but a quick scrub with a tiny brush will get it clean in no time.

    Click here to buy a blade brush.

    Blade Cover & Peeler

    The blade cover and peeler is another popular accessory with Thermomix owners.

    This sits inside the Thermomix bowl and has two functions: it protects food from the blades when slow cooking or sous vide cooking, and, yes, it really does peel your potatoes for you!

    Click here to read more on the Thermomix website.

    Spatulas

    The Thermomix comes with a spatula but I don't find it all that easy to use for scraping out the bowl.

    The good thing about it is that it has a safety guard to make it easy for stirring through the hole in the lid, should you need to stir while mixing or cooking. However, for scraping out cake batter or cookie dough, I find a silicon spatula to be much more useful.

    Wilton Easy Flex Silicone Spatula Set, Your Go-To Tools for Mixing, Folding, Scraping, Cooking and Serving., Blue, 3-Piece

    I have the set of Wilton silicon spatulas shown above and they are excellent. They are pliable enough to get under the blade and fantastic for scraping off around the jug.

    Click here to buy the Wilton Silicon Spatulas.

    Serving Accessories

    Thermoservers

    Thermoservers are super handy for keeping your food warm while waiting to serve it.

    They are perfect if you are cooking mulitple dishes in your Thermomix and need to keep one warm while you cook the next. Or if you are feeding people at different times. I also use mine for allowing a risotto to rest and thicken before serving.

    Pinnacle Insulated Casserole Dish with Lid 3 pc. Set 2.6/1.5/1 qt. Hot Pot Food Warmer/Cooler –Thermal Soup/Salad Serving Bowl- Stainless Steel Hot Food Container–Best Gift Set for Moms –Holidays

    I am not that impressed with the ones sold by Thermomix but the ones above come highly recommended. They have airtight lids and will keep food warm for up to 6 hours.

    They are also great for pot-lucks, picnics and BBQs.

    Click here to buy a set of insulated serving dishes.

    Another great option is an insulated gravy boat or sauce pot.

    450ML/750ML 304 Stainless Steel Thermal Sauce Pot, Double Wall Insulated Gravy Boat Pot with Lid Serving Jug Bucket with Non-drip Spout for Juice Tomato Sauce Kitchen Supplies(750ml)

    This is perfect for keeping gravy, caramel sauce (for the ever-popular Sticky Date Pudding), custard or any other sauce warm on your table.

    Click here to buy an insulated gravy jug.

    Yoghurt Jars

    You will love how easy it is to make yoghurt in the Thermomix using the fermentation mode.

    Yoghurt jars are perfect for making single portion-sized yoghurts that you can transfer straight from Thermomix to fridge. Not only is homemade yoghurt better for you (no additives) but these jars mean no unnecessary plastic waste.

    Thymart 5.3oz / 7 OZ Mini Glass Jar with Lid for Pudding, Yogurt, Caviar, Herb, Jelly, Jams, Honey, Spices - Dishwaresafe - Pack-of-4 (7OZ)

    I also use mine to keep custard in the fridge for grab-and-go portions. You could also use them for a range of desserts, snacks, sauces or spices.

    When choosing yoghurt pots, ensure they are the right height to fit in the Varoma (8-10cm high is ideal).

    Click here to buy a set of yoghurt jars.

    Baking Accessories

    If you're anything like me, you won't be able to resist baking all the time once you have your Thermomix. Whipping up a batch of cookies, a wonderful chocolate cake or even baking a loaf of bread every week is just too easy.

    The Dough function is one of the most amazing functions on the Thermomix, making bread making a cinch.

    Here are some of the most useful accessories I have bought for baking with my Thermomix.

    Silicone Mats

    Silicone baking mats are great as an environmentally-friendly way to line your baking trays. And they will save you money over time from buying baking paper.

    RENOOK Silicone Baking Mats Set of 5, BPA-free grade food baking mat, 100% Non-Stick Reusable Food Safe Liners & Silicone Brush- Macaron, Pastry, Cookie.

    They are naturally non-stick, can be used in the oven, cleaned in the dishwasher and then rolled up and easily stored in your kitchen drawer.

    Click here to buy a set of silicone mats.

    Muffin Trays

    I batch bake muffins all the time and freeze them for lunch boxes and after-school snacks. Also my daughter loves to whip up a batch of cupcakes at any given opportunity!

    Wilton Perfect Results Premium Non-Stick Bakeware Muffin Pan & Cupcake Pan, 12-Cup, Steel

    So muffin trays are in use almost every week in our house.

    Click here to buy a muffin tray.

    Piping bags and tips

    All those cakes and cupcakes you are going to make will need to be decorated! My Thermomix Buttercream Icing recipe is perfect for piping onto cupcakes or smothering onto a cake.

    Riccle Disposable Piping Bags 12 Inch - 100 Anti Burst Pastry Bags - Icing Piping Bags for Frosting - Ideal for Cakes and Cookies Decoration

    I swear by using a piping bag and the large Wilton 1M and 1A piping tips for super simple decorating.

    Wilton Tip Set, X-Large

    Click here to buy piping bags and the large Wilton piping tips.

    Donut Tins

    It's not just muffins and cupcakes that my kids ask for these days either - they love Thermomix Donuts too!

    Wilton Non-Stick 6-Cavity Donut Baking Pans, 2-Count

    I'm not going to pretend that baking donuts makes them healthy - but it certainly makes them easy to make. With the Thermomix to make the batter and a donut tin to bake them in, you can easily bake up a batch in no time.

    Click here to buy a set of donut tins.

    Pizza stone

    As I said, the Dough function will be a game changer once you have a Thermomix. No more kneading!

    Pizza Stone by Hans Grill Baking Stone For Pizzas use in Oven and Grill / BBQ FREE Wooden Pizza Peel Rectangular Board 15 x 12

    We make homemade pizza almost every week in our house - we make it so much we even bought a gas-fired outdoor pizza oven!

    If you don't want to stretch to a pizza oven then I definitely recommend investing in a pizza stone - it will make all the difference to your homemade pizzas.

    Click here to buy a pizza stone.

    Bread Tin

    Once you've fallen in love with the Dough function, you will likely find yourself baking up all kinds of loaves of bread, from bread rolls to naan bread to an easy Dutch oven loaf.

    For an everyday loaf of sandwich bread, a bread tin is going to be very useful.

    CHEFMADE Loaf Pan with Lid, Non-Stick Bread Pan Bakeware Durable Carbon Steel Bread Toast Mold with Cover Bread Pan for Baking Bread Pan Bread Tin for Homemade Cakes, Breads and Meatloaf

    And it's not just for baking regular bread - I use mine for making banana bread and chocolate zucchini loaf too.

    Click here to buy a bread tin.

    Baguette Tray

    Another popular bread recipe is the Cookidoo baguette recipe. But you need to have a special baguette pan for this.

    Amagabeli Baguette Pan 15

    This not only helps you shape the bread, but the perforated surface also lets moisture escape, and allows loaves to crisp and brown evenly.

    Click here to buy a baguette tray.

    Pantry Accessories

    Storage Jars

    You will find it useful to have a selection of different sized storage jars - whether it for spices, stock paste, homemade sauces like pesto or jams and lemon curd etc.

    EatNeat 5-Piece Airtight Glass Kitchen Canisters with Glass Lids - Set of 5 Mason Jars for Food Storage, Organization, and Canning - Food Storage Containers that Hold 68, 51, 34, 27, and 17 Ounces

    You might also want some storage bottles for keeping homemade drinks in the fridge, such as Lemonade, nut milks, or Baileys - all of which are super easy to make with the Thermomix.

    I prefer to use glass jars and bottles with clamp-style airtight lids.

    Spice Rack and Spice Jars

    With the huge choice of recipes for the Thermomix, you will probably find you become more adventurous with your cooking and trying out new recipes.

    SpaceAid Spice Rack Organizer with 28 Spice Jars, 386 Spice Labels, Chalk Marker and Funnel Set for Cabinet, Countertop, Pantry, Cupboard or Door & Wall Mount - 4 Tier, Black Label

    This inevitably leads to your pantry filling up with new spices and herbs. Getting organised and having a good storage system will be a massive time saver.

    Click here to buy a spice rack and jars.

    Nut Milk Bag

    The Thermomix makes it really easy to make your own almond milk, coconut milk or oat milk. You just need a nut milk bag to make it even easier.

    This allows you to easily squeeze out the milk and leave the pulp behind.

    Click here to buy a Nut Milk Bag.
