Tips for best results

  • To obtain optimum results when making cake mixtures etc. all ingredients should have the same temperature. Butter, eggs, etc. should be removed from the refrigerator some time before they are being used.
  • Whipped cream has more volume, if the cream is well chilled before being whipped.
  • Mashed potatoes will become more creamy, if all ingredients are being used as hot as possible (e.g. potatoes immediately after boiling).

Recipe Example: Cake mixture

200 g butter or margarine
200 g sugar
7 g vanilla sugar 4 eggs
500 g plain flour
1 pinch salt
15 g baking powder

80 g sugar
1 egg
