Khloé Kardashian shares long-awaited pantry tour
Khloé Kardashian gave an in-depth tour of her $17 million ($26 million AUD) mansion's immaculately organised walk-in pantry. 'Welcome to my crib, my pantry crib,' the Good American co-founder said in a video posted to her YouTube channel Monday, adding that she has been getting requests to give a tour for years. 'This is where all the magic happens,' she joked. Kardashian, 40, transformed one of her Hidden Hills, California, garages into a pantry because she ran out of space in her original food storage closet. 'I wanted it to look a little farmer's market-y (and) beautiful,' she said of the design concept. The bottom shelves are filled with family-sized bags of chips and other snacks, including her newly launched Khloud popcorn brand, organised in wooden crates. The Kardashians star — who shares daughter True, seven, and son Tatum, two, with ex-partner Tristan Thompson — explained that she keeps the snacks on the bottom shelves because her 'kids are little and shorter, so (she wants) them to be able to grab and go'. 'The higher we get, the more adult-y we get,' she said, listing off condiments like olives for her mum Kris Jenner's beloved martinis. Above that, Kardashian keeps glass containers with steel lids filled with various noshes, while the shelves above are used for 'back stock' and the highest ones store her fragile glass cake trays for 'all the fun, good stuff'. The reality TV star sections out her food containers by category, with one being for healthy items. She also shared that she likes to use a label maker to note a food's expiration date since she removes the products from their original boxes. 'We do a pantry restock, re-fluff, when need be,' she said. Kardashian opts for lazy Suzans from CB2 to organise her canned goods, while her glass containers are from Amazon — though she added her own personal touch by staining the lids grey because she admittedly is 'a psychotic freak'. The Hulu personality admitted she keeps some processed food in the house but noted, 'That's life'. 'I can't be full-on Kourtney (Kardashian), but in my soul I try,' she joked of her sister, who is famous for her strict organic diet. 'I'm just happy they don't have tons of plastic over here'. On the opposite side of the pantry, she shared her impressive cutting board collection lining the backsplash of her marble countertop. 'Yes, I use them, but also I like the way they look on my counter,' she explained. A massive wooden bowl of fruit is also atop the counter, which she fills with bananas, apples and other fruits as well as plastic versions for 'fluffer'. Shelves above the counter are home to bottles of San Pellegrino and Perrier soda water. 'A little green adds some vibrancy and colour in here,' the star said of the emerald-hued glasses. She keeps a few cake stands filled with cookies and other sweet treats out, explaining, 'Life is about moderation'. As for her drawers, the former Revenge Body star organises them with dividers to help separate things like utensils, biodegradable straws, cocktail napkins, cookie cutters, rolling pins and other baking accessories. Another drawer is completely filled with candies such as Ring Pops and lollipops. As someone who 'loves to bake,' she keeps jars of sprinkles out for aesthetic purposes, but she uses cabinets to hide things that 'aren't too pretty' like ziplock bags, aluminium foil and aprons. 'Things I don't really care to have out,' she added. 'So you're allowed to have 'junk drawers,' although mine aren't really junk drawers 'cause I still keep everything organised.' The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum believes every inch of any room is 'usable space'. 'You just have to be creative with it,' she said before suggesting, 'If you don't have counter space for cutting boards, hammer it into a wall and keep them there. They're not only usable, but they're also pretty.' She keeps a snow cone machine in the corner of her pantry and displays her fine china in her high-up shelves accented with strip lighting. 'Okay, guys, so that is really the end of my 'Cribs' pantry tour. Thank you guys for coming,' she said before joking, 'So you don't have to go home, but you gotta get the hell out of here'.
