Jennifer Garner says this ornamental stand mixer is so pretty, it 'almost doesn’t look real' – and she uses it for perfect English muffins
The actress takes cues from the natural world with her forest green and wood KitchenAid mixer – it's one of the most unique appliances we've ever seen


Jennifer Garner's Pretend Cooking Show on Instagram has been a consistent source of inspiration not only for recipes but also for kitchen appliances – the latter taking shape in the form of the most stylish stand mixer we've ever seen.
The 13 Going on 30 star's affinity for KitchenAid products was already evident (so much so, in fact, that she announced her partnership with them in 2022). Since the start of her collaboration, we've spotted a series of KitchenAid products atop her countertops – including mixing bowls and food processors. However, her latest iteration of the series has stopped us in our tracks. Her KitchenAid Design Series Evergreen Stand Mixer is as ornamental as it is functional, thanks to its unique wood bowl that perfectly complements the organic wooden cabinets in her kitchen.
'How about that Evergreen KitchenAid Stand Mixer?!' Garner says. 'It almost doesn’t look real, it’s too pretty.'
Similarly available from Garner's go-to retailer, this beautiful mixer is quickly becoming our favorite appliance of the year. Though it boasts all the features we need from a stand mixer, it's sculptural and good-looking. It's easy to see why Garner loves it enough to showcase it via Instagram.

The Evergreen stand mixer is a nature-inspired take on the classic stand mixer, fitting in perfectly to design schemes such as organic modern and Japandi. Its walnut bowl beautifully contrasts the green-painted base, all while providing the speed and efficiency the brand has come to be known for.
While the bowl looks magnificent, it also comes with a food-safe finish that locks onto the base. Additionally, each bowl comes in a unique finish, meaning that all the stand mixers are truly one-of-a-kind. We love how this appliance doubles as decor, proving that appliances can serve as so much more than just a functional object. And nobody demonstrates this quite as well as Garner.
In her post, she shares her most recent culinary sucsess: English muffins. 'At the top of the comfort food list around here: Zoe Nathan's Homemade English Muffins. There is a fresh batch quickly disappearing from my counter, and I thought you might like them, too,' she says.
Evergreen Stand Mixer aside, we've found more of Garner's KitchenAid go-to's, as seen on her countertops over recent months. The classic KitchenAid stand mixer (currently reduced on Amazon) offers a more traditonal look that, the actress says, has had a place in her kitchen for 'decades'. You can shop the look below.

The Deluxe 4.5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer features ten speeds and comes in various colors (Garner has the silver shade). Meanwhile, we love this white option, which is versatile enough to work in any kitchen. It's a classic for a reason, and the price has never been better.
This food processor does it all: chop, shred, mince, slice, knead, whip, mix, and puree everything from fresh veggies to cheeses, doughs, sauces, salsa, and more.
This Set of 5 mixing bowls includes a 2.5-quart bowl, a 3.5-quart bowl, and a 4.5-quart bowl, all of which have a non-stick base that increases stability while mixing.
