Baking top tips
•
When mixing liquids, especially hot liquid: add small quantities at a time to
reduce spillage.
•
Ingredients should be added to the mixing bowl in the order they are specified
in the recipe.
•
Use the mixing speed that is recommended in the recipe. Use the speed
control dial of the mixer to help you find the correct speed to use.
•
Use mixing times as specified in recipes. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERMIX.
Over mixing can cause the mixture to become very tough.
•
Should an object, such as a spatula, fall into the bowl while the mixer is
operating, turn the mixer OFF immediately, then remove the object.
•
For easier cleanup remove attachments and rinse immediately with warm
water.

during use, eliminating the need for the user to stop and manually complete
this task.
Using your HeatSoft stand mixer

Before starting, read the recipe completely.
2.
Butter can be used straight from the fridge. Simply cut into cubes, add to the
mixing bowl, select HeatSoft and begin gentle mixing on Speed 1, all other
ingredients should be at room temperature. Cream is best when it is whipped
cold straight from the fridge.
3.
Before starting your recipe, position the oven racks into the centre of the oven.
Preheat the oven to the temperature recommended in the recipe and gather all
the ingredients and utensils near to the mixer.
4.
Caster sugar is the preferred choice for cake making. Add to the bowl with the
chilled butter, once softened, increase the mixer speed and cream until pale
and fluffy.
5.
To eliminate the possibility of egg shells in your recipe, break eggs into a
separate container first, then add to the mixture.
6.
When mixing egg whites, be sure the bowl and whisk are thoroughly cleaned
and dried, as even the smallest amount of oil on the beaters or bowl may
cause the egg whites not to aerate.
