Emoji Kitchen

Emoji mash-up

Pick two emoji and get a real Google Emoji Kitchen sticker when the pair is supported.

Google’s Emoji Kitchen takes two emojis and turns supported pairs into hand-drawn sticker art. The results are weird, charming, and often extremely specific: a chef-hat avocado, a heart on fire, a cat wearing sunglasses. This page previews a curated set of verified Google-hosted mashups, suggests nearby supported pairs, and links out when you want to explore the wider kitchen.

    If a pair is not in this page's verified set, pick a nearby supported mix or open the external Emoji Kitchen browser.

What the Emoji Kitchen actually is

Launched by Google in 2020, the Emoji Kitchen is a Gboard (Google Keyboard) feature that shows a hand-illustrated sticker combining two emojis. Google later made Emoji Kitchen available through Google Search, and Google said in its 2024 World Emoji Day update that the catalog had grown to more than 100,000 drawings. Unlike generic image blending, Emoji Kitchen stickers are created as specific pieces of Google artwork and shipped over time. That means:

  • Not every pair is supported.
  • The wider catalog keeps changing as Google adds or retires drawings.
  • This page stores one verified Google-hosted PNG URL per curated pair and accepts either emoji order for those pairs.

Categories of mashups that work well

  • Face + object: sunglasses cat, party hat penguin, mask avocado
  • Object + object: heart on fire, pizza with a heart, taco with eyes
  • Food + face emotion: crying pizza, love-eyes donut, sleepy burger
  • Animal + accessory: cowboy cat, chef dog, princess frog
  • Plant + emotion: laughing cactus, sad flower

What does not work

  • Obscure flags combined with faces.
  • Two flags together.
  • Modified emojis (skin tones, ZWJ sequences) usually not supported individually.
  • Very new emojis added in recent Unicode updates; they take time to be illustrated.

Output format

The mashup is a PNG sticker from Google’s hosted sticker set. The tool embeds the image directly from Google’s public sticker URL for verified pairs. If a pair is not in this curated set, the page shows supported suggestions and the external browser link instead. If Google changes or removes a hosted image URL later, that specific preview may stop loading until the curated link is refreshed.

Using mashups outside Gboard

  • Chat apps with image support (Discord, Telegram, Signal): drop the PNG directly.
  • Social media (Twitter, Instagram): upload as image.
  • iMessage/SMS: works as a picture message.
  • Email: embed as inline image.

The raw mashup is an image, not a Unicode character, so you cannot “type” it. It is a sticker you send.

When the kitchen disappoints

Mashups are a surprise box. Some pairs are delightful; some are obvious (“thumbs up + thumbs up = just a thumbs up”); some are disappointing blobs. Browse before committing to a mashup for serious content.

Legal note

The stickers are Google-hosted artwork. Sharing them in chats and personal posts is the common use case, but commercial, branded, or product use should be checked against Google/Gboard terms and cleared with the right permission where needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Google only illustrates certain pairs. The coverage is broad but not complete. If a combination fails, try swapping the order or picking a closely related emoji; many face emojis have similar variants that do render.

No, not with this tool. The mashups come from Google’s hand-drawn catalog; you are browsing and combining the existing set. For custom mashups, an image editor and two source emojis are your path.

Only a subset. Google prioritized popular emojis (faces, animals, food, common objects) and a curated secondary list. Newer emojis and niche categories may not be illustrated yet.

Hyperion does not create an account copy or save a searchable history for this tool. The preview still requests PNG images from Google’s CDN, and opening the external Emoji Kitchen browser sends the selected emoji to that external site.
