hints
When creaming for cake mixtures,
l
use butter or margarine at room
temperature or soften before use.
To avoid overloading your mixing
l
bowl, select one of an appropriate
size.
Large quantities and thick mixtures
l
may require a longer mixing time.
When whipping cream, use of a

high-sided bowl is recommended
to minimise splashing.
