hELPfUL hINTS
1. There may be a slight smell and a small amount of
smoke the first time the appliance is used. This is normal
and temporary. Make sure there is sufficient ventilation.
2. Should the top of your cupcakes or muffins be
light and not brown, try adding a little more batter to
each cavity.
3. If the sweetheart cupcakes are too brown,
insufficient batter is used or the cooking time is too
long. Ensure cooking plate is full or reduce cooking
time before checking.
4. Make sure that the plates are cleaned and lightly oiled
before each use to prevent the sweetheart cupcake from
sticking and ensure easy removal.
5. Use only wooden, plastic,or rubber utensils. DO
NOT use sharp-edged cooking tools such as knives,
forks, spoons etc. as the scratching will affect the
non-stick performance.
6. The Sweetheart Cupcake Maker allows you to use
any store bought cake mix. Follow package directions to
prepare the batter, but please note that the Sweetheart
Cupcake Maker cooks faster than a traditional oven and
therefore the cooking times will need to be adjusted.
