Cleaning And Maintenance; Hints - Babycakes CP-12 Instruction Manual

9. Lower the lid using an oven mitt or pot holder. Press down slightly so the lid latch is
secured.
10. Actual cooking time will vary depending on ingredients and type of cake pops being
prepared. A general guideline is 4 to 6 minutes of cooking time per batch.
11. With oven mitts or a pot holder, release the lid latch and open the cake pop maker lid.
12. Remove the cooked cake pops with the fork tool, using caution not to scratch or damage
the nonstick surface. If removing cake pops with a utensil not provided, use a wooden or
other heat-resistant non-metallic utensil.
13. When finished cooking, remove plug from wall outlet and allow the appliance to cool
before moving, cleaning or storing.
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable parts. Do not try
to repair it yourself.
1. Before cleaning, unplug from outlet and allow to cool.
2. Clean the interior and exterior surfaces of the cake pop maker with a damp cloth or
sponge. Wipe dry with a soft cloth. NEVER IMMERSE THE DONUT MAKER OR CORD
IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
3. To remove batter baked onto the cooking surface, pour a small amount of cooking oil
onto the hardened batter. After 5 minutes, wipe with a paper towel or dry cloth. A clean
kitchen brush or even a toothbrush works well to remove stubborn batter.
4. NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS TO CLEAN THE CAKE
POP MAKER, AS THOSE MAY DAMAGE THE SURFACES.
To store, be sure all parts are clean and dry. Store appliance in its box or in a clean, dry
place. Never store it while it is hot or wet. Never wrap cord tightly around the appliance; keep
it loosely coiled.
CAKE POP MAKER HINTS AND SUGGESTIONS
• Use a disposable pastry bag or zip-top food storage bag to easily fill the cooking reservoirs
of the donut maker. Fill the bag with the prepared batter and clip one of the corners off
the bag. Squeeze gently to push batter from the corner of the bag.
• Never over mix donut hole batter as this could cause the donut holes to become tough.
Blend batter ingredients until large lumps are gone.
• The recommended amount of batter for each cooking reservoir is approximately 1
tablespoon. Use caution not to overfill the cooking reservoirs.
• After pouring batter into the cooking reservoirs, try not to check the food during the first
minute. Opening the lid may cause the uncooked batter to separate before it is cooked.
• Use the fork tool to remove finished cake pops or donut holes from the appliance. Use
care to only contact the food and not the nonstick cooking surface. If not using the fork
tool, use a heat-resistant non-metallic utensil.
• Baked cake pops and donut holes will be darker on the bottom half when compared to
the top half. This is a result of the batter rising. The bottom halves of the cake pops and
donut holes are in closer contact to the cooking plates compared to the upper halves.
