Khloé Kardashian's pantry lives in my mind rent-free. Her organizational skills hooked me right from the start of Keeping Up With the Kardashians — specifically, at those flawlessly stacked Oreos.
Basking in her grand kitchen storage ideas for cereals, spices, cookies, and snacks — all meticulously labeled and color-coded, of course — figuring out how to recreate the look can feel overwhelming. Even though the Good American founder has a natural talent for organization, she did enlist some expert help. So, I decided to consult a few experts myself to achieve this level of pantry perfection.
‘The key to organizing a pantry like Khloé’s is uniformity,’ says professional organizer Robyn Reynolds at Organize2Harmonize. ‘Using the same containers in the pantry gives it a very sleek, streamlined look,’ she adds. ‘Snacks, baking essentials, canned goods, breakfast items — give everything a home. This is also the perfect opportunity to purge expired items and donate those you simply won't use,’ explains professional home organizer Meaghan Kessman. ‘These categories will then inform what size and sort of storage products you’ll need, and how much space they’ll require,’ notes professional home organizer Laura Price.

‘Aesthetics matter!’ Meaghan continues. ‘Khloé's pantry is a rainbow of coordinating colors,’ so, tedious as it may be, arrange items by the color of their packaging. Regardless of which pantry organization ideas you end up selecting, the professional organizer urges us to remember an important detail: labels. ‘Labeling isn't just for Instagram,’ she continues. Not only is this a defining quality of Khloé’s pantry, but ‘It's the key to maintaining order and ensuring everyone in your household knows where things belong.’
With that, let’s get into the good stuff. Below are all the chic organizers needed to create a Kardashian-caliber pantry for yourself, along with helpful expert tips along the way. If Khloé can do it, so can we — perhaps we'll have time for an Oreo break in between.
Get the Look: Khloé Kardashian's Pantry
Price: $16.14
One look at Khloé's pantry and you’ll quickly learn that she’s a big fan of lazy Susans. According to Melanie Summers, professional organizer and owner of Speak Organized, lazy Susans are ‘perfect for corner spaces and deep shelves,’ allowing you ‘to easily access items that might otherwise be out of reach.’ Organizer Heather Aiello adds, ‘Choose ones with raised edges to prevent items from falling off.’ This two-tier option from Amazon, which looks quite similar to Khloé's, is great for items you don't access regularly. It also comes in single-tier varieties for daily essentials.

Every inch of Khloé’s modern kitchen pantry is meticulously labeled. While not an organizer per se, a label maker is essential for achieving this look. Professional organizer Meaghan Kessman advises, ‘Invest in a label maker or some stylish adhesive labels — it’s a small investment for a big payoff.’ This compact model is easily stored in a drawer when not in use. Currently on sale for under $30 and boasting a stellar 4.6/5 rating from over 3,000 reviews, it’s a must-have.
Price: $25.99
Khloé’s pantry is stocked with a variety of cereals, and while you might not have as many, you can still keep yours fresh and organized with these airtight storage containers from OXO. As Heather Aiello notes, these ‘help you see exactly what you have, which prevents overbuying.’ Line them up neatly on a shelf for easy access on busy mornings.
Price: $19.99
Khloé mostly uses glass and acrylic containers for a minimalist look, but if you check the lower shelves, you'll also find basket-style containers for snacks at an easy-to-reach level. Heather Aiello explains that ‘Wire baskets offer visibility and a modern look,’ adding a chic touch to your pantry. These Amazon options have a corrosion-resistant powder-coated finish and are versatile enough to repurpose for bathroom, linen, or other types of storage in the future.

If you thought I was going to get through this edit without mentioning a cookie jar, you were sorely mistaken. It's perhaps the most Khloé Kardashian-esque pantry essential of them all. While you could use it to store whatever your heart desires, if you're truly leaning into the look, it's Oreos all the way — guests will immediately recognize the iconic technique.
Price: $40.94
OXO is a top-tier organizational brand verified to be in Khloé’s pantry (and my own, for whatever that’s worth). Many experts, like professional organizer Meaghan Kessman, recommend it as well. Clear stackable containers ‘are a staple for a reason,’ she says, adding, ‘Not only do they look sleek, but they also keep food fresh and make it easy to see what you have.’ Why OXO? Each container, like this one on Amazon, has easy-to-open lids, a game-changer for anyone in a rush. Use them for anything from flour to snacks.

There's something so impactful about this dry goods dispenser. Like curating your closet to look like a showroom, a piece like this makes your pantry feel like a high-end grocery store. Khloé clearly gets it because she owns several, though one or two would likely suffice for most people. Use it for bulk items like dry pasta, flour, or rice. Not necessary, but super elevated (because let’s be honest — food tastes better when it’s pretty).
Price: $20.99
Another OXO for good measure — this one’s great for anything you’re taking on the go: kids’ snacks, protein bars, or everyday packaged treats. With its transparent curved design, it’s much more elevated than keeping these items in their original boxes. It makes food double as decor and is so good-looking that you could easily add it to your kitchen counter if you lack pantry space. Reviewers rave about how fresh it keeps the food.
Price: $49.95
There’s already a turntable on this list, but this acacia wood option from Williams Sonoma adds a luxe touch for shelves right at eye level for a more impressive look. The reality star uses them for condiments and sauces, grouped together by category, though these versatile organizers could display just about any other kitchen essential. I went with the 10”, but if you wish to hold larger items, I recommend the 18”.
Price: $34.99
This rattan bin by The Container Store looks similar to Khloé's. “Breakfast,” “Dried Fruit,” “Pickles,” and “Gluten Free” are just some of the labeled categories of items Khloé has designated a place for in this style. This large size is great for bigger collections, though the bin is available in small and medium sizes as well if your space is limited.
Price: $19.97
When it comes to kitchen shelf ideas, clear bins are your best friend. They’re relatively inexpensive (less than $20 for a pack of four) and make it incredibly easy to curate even small items in awkward sizes that otherwise wouldn’t have a home, like spices, vitamins, and soda cans. I love that they don’t take up much visual space, and the added handle makes retrieving your items a breeze. Plus, these work great in the fridge too.
Price: $25.99
Rounding off this list of pantry ideas is an absolute staple. If you’ve yet to purchase a set of glass jars, consider this your sign. They have a sort of showroom apothecary feel that makes any food appear elevated. Aesthetics aside, they’re also airtight, meaning you’ll never need to suffer through stale food again. And most importantly, they'll spare you from messes (feel free to flip them upside down — they will stay shut).
How should I get started?
Step one to creating a photo-ready pantry? According to experts like professional organizer Lauren Saltman, it’s decluttering. ‘To achieve this highly organized pantry look, you first need to start by emptying out your pantry,’ she explains. ‘Now is the time to do a thorough cleaning, and possibly update your shelves and counters with new materials.’
‘It’s also a great time to update the flooring and repaint the walls or add wallpaper behind your shelves.’ Though, if you lack the time or budget, even a really good clean will make your pantry feel like a million bucks.
How can I maintain an organized pantry?
According to professional organizer Heather Aiello at The Organized You, ‘The key to maintaining a pantry like Khloé’s is to set aside time every few weeks to tidy up your pantry, discard expired items, and reorganize as needed.’ ‘A good time to do this is when you are unloading your groceries,’ she explains. ‘You can take a few extra minutes to make sure things are staying organized.’
Each time you return from the market, professional organizer Robyn Reynolds recommends immediately putting away all items in their designated spots. Similarly, after removing items for cooking or snacking, ‘make sure to return them in the same place where you got them, it’s ‘home,’’ she adds.
Heather Aiello admits that keeping up (no pun intended) with this sort of spotless, streamlined look will take a little additional work. So, to help even out the labor, she suggests involving everyone in the household to do their part. After all, they're using the pantry, too! ‘Ensure that everyone knows the system and encourage them to keep the pantry organized by putting in their designated spot,’ she advises.
