Emojis have become an integral part of online conversations. They allow us to express ourselves and help others understand our emotions and the tone of our messages better. This is the reason keyboard apps like Gboard offer plenty of emojis but despite all the choices, you may still end up missing a relevant emoji for a particular moment.Google understood the problem and introduced Emoji Kitchen in 2020. It is a feature that lets you mash up two different emojis to create a custom emoji sticker. It is meant to give users a chance of expressing themselves more specifically instead of restricting themselves to the same generic emojis all the time.

We will tell you how to use Gboard’s Emoji Kitchen to create custom emoji stickers. But before we get started, make sure that you have Gboard installed on your Android device, and is the default keyboard app. It comes pre-installed on all Pixel smartphones. Other device users can download it for free from the Google Play Store.
