Whether it's cookies or cakes, bakers know that fresh baked goods taste like heaven in a bite. Baking also provides comfort for many, especially during these times. Although making things from scratch with your hands will make you feel invincible, certain kitchen tools are required to achieve that perfect at-home bakery feel. Cooling racks let cool air circulate your fresh-out-the-oven baked good, allowing it to cool faster. Hot pans, on the other hand, can continue to cook your baked goods and cause an over-baked disaster.
