Turn your stand mixer into a pasta maker, ice cream maker, ice shaver, vegetable spiraliser, mincer, strainer, citrus juicer and more by collecting the compatible attachments and accessories.
From whipping together large batches of ingredients to mincing meat filling for hamburgers or churning homemade ice cream, the attachments and accessories available will add multiple functions to your standard mixer.

Mixing bowls for more flexibility
Anyone that bakes regularly will tell you that having an extra mixing bowl in the kitchen is super handy. Not only does it let you make more batches of ingredients without cleaning the bowl in between, but it helps you work with ease if a recipe calls for the separate mixing of ingredients. The KitchenAid mixing bowls come in three different sizes, 2.8 litres, 4.7 litres and 4.8 litres, to fit any range of KitchenAid stand mixers. These mixing bowls vary in material and colour and include stainless steel, ceramic, copper and glass, all of which are highly durable.
Variety for your fresh produce
Use an attachment on your stand mixer to spiral, slice, strain and shred your fruit and vegetables in a new and exciting way. Attachments such as the KitchenAid Spiraliser Plus connect to your stand mixer power hub and will easily peel apples, carrots, zucchini and more, so you can focus on other kitchen tasks. This versatile tool has six interchangeable blades to give you unlimited spiral options for salads and plates of pasta.
The KitchenAid Food Processor Attachment will convert your existing stand mixer into a must-have kitchen workhorse by perfectly slicing, dicing, julienning and shredding your fruit and vegetables for any meal. With four interchangeable processing discs and an exclusive ExactSlice system, you can control the level of thinness or thickness of your slices.
A new way to create
A food grinder is perfect for those who love to make homemade sausages, hamburgers and meatballs. A food grinder will break down your meat into a fine or coarse consistency that can then be moulded into the food of your choice. The Kenwood Chef Multi Food Grinder Attachment is compatible with the Kenwood Chef Elite XL stand mixer and comes with three grinding screens, and a sausage and kibbe attachment for stuffing sausage casings with freshly ground meat.
Perfecting pasta
Create delicious homemade pasta with a pasta roller or pasta press that will make store bought pasta a thing of the past. For those looking to make a wide variety of pasta types, the KitchenAid Gourmet Pasta Press Attachment fits the power hub of KitchenAid stand mixers and comes with six shaping discs.
For alternative pasta options, the KitchenAid Pasta Roller Attachment Set features three attachments with eight thickness settings to help you roll out sheets for lasagna, ravioli and tortellini. It also includes two cutters for 2mm spaghetti and 6.5mm fettuccine.
Delicious homemade desserts
Whether your preference is for ice cream, sorbet, gelato or iced beverages, a frozen dessert attachment will create all your favourite cold sweets. The KitchenAid Ice Cream Bowl Attachment features a 1.9 litre freeze bowl and mixing dasher that rotates in the bowl for even freezing. This versatile attachment fits various KitchenAid stand mixer models to create consistently thick and creamy homemade ice cream, sorbet and gelato.
For those who have a Kenwood Chef stand mixer, the Kenwood Frozen Dessert Maker Attachment fits inside the bowl of your stand mixer to churn ingredients into delicious ice cream, sorbet or yoghurt.
If frozen drinks are more your style, the KitchenAid Ice Shaver Attachment creates 500ml of light and fluffy shaved ice in 60 seconds to be used for various syrups, sauces and toppings.

Can I use a stand mixer as a food processor?
A stand mixer and a food processor are invaluable kitchen appliances and their differences come down to how they interact with ingredients. A stand mixer uses various beaters to mix, knead, whip and mash ingredients, while a food processor uses blades and discs to chop, puree, slice and shred. While a stand mixer alone cannot act as a food processor, the attachments available to connect to your stand mixer power hub will transform them into full functioning food processors.
