• hard produce: cheese, dried fruits, certain
vegetables (carrots, celery...).

Cake Making
• When making cakes with "soft tub"
margarine use it straight from the
refrigerator. To avoid over processing the
ingredients use the "pulse button" (A9) as
the mixing times are very short, only
about 20 seconds.
• If using butter or block margarine, it should
be left at room temperature to soften and
cut it into 2cm pieces. Use the "plastic
kneader" setting on speed selector (A5)
when mixing for up to about 40 seconds.
• Sponge type cakes are best made by the
'all in one method'. Using the spatula,
scrape down any unmixed ingredients into
the centre of the bowl and process for 5
seconds.
• When adding ingredients such as dried fruit,
nuts and cherries use the "pulse button"
(A9) to avoid the ingredients being chopped
up into small pieces.
You can:
• Mix up to 1.5 kg of light cake mixture in
about 20 - 40 seconds.
