So it’s the new year and you’ve decided to brush up on your baking skills this year by baking more often. Then you remember the one thing that put you off baking last year; having to mix everything from the batter to the frosting by hand with a mixer. Then you start to reconsider your decision. Well, there is no need to give up on your dream. Below is a review of four good cake and pastry mixers, all at different price points, that you can choose from and invest in. Mixers are generally a godsend. They not only make your baking experience stress free, but your kitchen as well. They can save you a lot of time, allow you to bake more, and you don’t have to fall asleep on your feet because you’re so tired after a day of baking and decorating. The stand mixers I am reviewing here are; The Master Chef 250W Electric Cake Mixer, the Ambiano Classic Stand Mixer, the Pyramid ES-351 250W Electric Cake Mixer and the Eurosonic Cake Mixer.
