We're OBSESSED with KitchenAid's colour of the year for 2021 – and it has already sold out (for now)

It comes in 12 colours in total, and included in the box you'll get a 1.4l ribbed glass jar – the perfect size for families. With a compact footprint due to its nature, this blender can still take centre stage in your kitchen, especially if you choose it in a striking colour. The new honey one, for instance...
