The Best Thermomix Accessories 2026 for Families
Anyone who cooks with the Thermomix for the family knows: everyday life has to move quickly, portions are large, and kitchen chaos needs to stay under control. The best Thermomix accessories for families help you do exactly that – they make cooking more efficient, protect your appliance, and even save plastic waste. We show you which accessories really make a difference in 2026.
Why is Good Thermomix Accessory Worth It for Family Cooking?
During daily family cooking, the Thermomix goes through a lot: multiple meals a day, sticky doughs, hot soups, smoothies for the kids. The Thermomix comes well-equipped as standard – but with the right accessories, you get significantly more out of the appliance. Quality accessories made from food-safe silicone also protect surfaces, are dishwasher-safe, and can be reused for years. That saves money and resources.
The Best Thermomix Accessories for Families at a Glance
1. Steamer Lid Cover Made of Silicone
The Varoma is in constant use during family cooking – vegetables, fish, dumplings. The problem: when you open it, hot steam shoots out of the lid, and the Varoma itself quickly suffers heat damage on work surfaces.
A matching silicone cover for the Varoma protects the lid and gives you a safe grip without burning yourself. It sounds like a small detail, but in the hectic family routine it's worth its weight in gold. Anyone who has had to open the Varoma lid with a fussy toddler in their arms knows exactly what we're talking about.
2. Mixcover Splash Guard Lid for the Mixing Bowl
Hardly any accessory is as practical for daily family cooking as a well-fitting splash guard. When soup, sauce, or dough is being processed in the mixing bowl and the measuring cup is only loosely in place, splashing can happen quickly.
The Mixcover silicone splash guard lid fits securely on the mixing bowl of the TM6, TM7, or TM5 and reliably prevents liquids from splashing out. At the same time, it allows steam to escape – this is important so no pressure builds up. BPA-free, dishwasher-safe, and made in Germany. Exactly the right accessory for anyone who cooks with the Thermomix daily.
3. Silicone Lids for Bowls and Leftover Storage
After cooking, leftovers often remain – soup, sauce, cooked vegetables. Instead of plastic wrap or poorly fitting lids, silicone lids in various sizes are a good option. They fit standard bowls and pots, are reusable, and put an end to single-use plastic in the family kitchen.
This may not sound spectacular at first, but once you've switched to high-quality silicone lids, you won't want to touch the wrap in the cupboard again. Families in particular, who care about sustainability, really appreciate this switch.
4. Mixcover Mixing Bowl Pad Made of Silicone
The hot mixing bowl directly on the work surface – that leaves marks. A non-slip silicone pad protects your kitchen surface and ensures the mixing bowl doesn't slip when you're working with the spatula.
Especially for families with children who like to help and stir a bit more vigorously, this is a small but effective protection. The Mixcover pads are heat-resistant, dishwasher-safe, and fit exactly to the common Thermomix models TM5, TM6, and TM7.
5. Silicone Mat for the Cooking Basket
The cooking basket is indispensable for family cooking: draining pasta, blanching vegetables, cooking potatoes. With a matching silicone insert for the cooking basket, you prevent small vegetables from falling through the slots and make the basket easier to clean.
For families with small children who don't have much patience with eating, this is a real time saver – fewer losses, faster cleaning.
6. Mixcover Lid Holder for the Thermomix
Who doesn't know this: you open the Thermomix lid and put it somewhere – on the work surface, next to the stove, on a cloth. Liquid drips and the work surface gets unnecessarily dirty.
A silicone lid holder, which is either attached directly to the Thermomix or stands separately on the work surface, keeps the lid safe and clean. It sounds simple, but it saves a few minutes of cleaning every day. In family life, it adds up.
7. Silicone Spatulas in Various Sizes
During family cooking, you often need to stir, scrape, and portion between different steps. High-quality silicone spatulas that are heat-resistant and can be used in the mixing bowl without scratching the surface are therefore a must.
Mixcover offers spatulas that are specially adapted to the shape of the Thermomix mixing bowl – so you really get into every corner and waste nothing. Especially when making sauces or dough for six people, that makes a difference.
