Thank you for choosing the Lakeland Let’s Bake Stand Mixer.

The Let’s Bake Stand Mixer is perfect for combining, folding, mixing, whipping and

It has three versatile attachments; a dough hook to use on lower speeds for combining dry
ingredients with liquid, and thicker mixtures like bread dough and muffins; a beater to use
on medium speeds to mix cakes, icing and dips; and a whisk to use with higher speeds for
whipping cream, meringues and eggs. The planetary mixing action works at 6 speeds to
ensure even blending and the powerful 650W motor also has a pulse setting. The stainless
steel 3.8 litre bowl has a splatter guard to minimise mess.

and muffins.
Use on medium speeds
