Up Close and Uncomfortable

The flaws are more notable close up. I used small Zip Lock bags for decorator icing and they are harder to control than the real thing. If you press too hard the tip comes through the bag and then the frosting "poops" on the cake.

I think you're too hard on yourself.

The cakes look great and I think they taste even better!

I love these step-by-step cooking features! I tried using the zip-lock-as-pastry- bag method once and it was very difficult to control compared to using a standard pastry bag. I think you did a beautiful job---as always! Yum!

Thoroughly enjoyed the post Kelly. Why the chrome of that vintage KA even looks chromier than todays chrome

Kelly!!

Everything looks fantastic. Did you have the G restored?

I have a model R which needs to be wired but I don't know how to do it or who to send it to. Any suggestions?

That cake looks delicious

Keep posting the "good stuff".

That model G is just stunning, it does look like it was covered with a thick layer of butter-cream chrome!

Some of the details on the "G" look very similar to the 5 quart N50 model Hobart is making today.

And the Beat Goes On

The model G was sold door to door in the 30's and later became known as the the N-50. It is in flawless condition and the chrome is rich and deep. Today we're moving on to cookies.

Double Batch of Oatmeal Chocolate Chip

1 pound butter, 2 cups brown sugar, 2 cups whites sugar.

60 seconds

Creaming on gear 1 with the model G and speed 5 with the Pro620. While the extra bars on the paddle impressed me yesterday they seem to be a hindrance with creaming.

The Chicken Laid an Egg

After 2 minutes with the egg and vanilla added. No scraping involved.

How Dry I am Am

Now, 6 cups of aotmeal that have had a whirl in the processor, 4 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons soda and salt.

Go to Your Corners and Come Out Beating

I moved the mixers apart to see how they do in ingredient containment. Model G 30 seconds in 1st gear. Not so bad with the dry.

And Now Newest Technology

The Pro 620 on speed 2 for 30 seconds. Stir is too slow for heavy ingredients. That's my girl, almost no evidence of flour.

And Now the Cheese Gets More Binding.

Another one of dad's sayings. First gear for 15 seconds after adding chips and nuts. This baby done peed it's pants all over the cupboard.

 

[mixfinder]

Oh, Man!

The floor too!

Golden Girl

I am trusting my girl to act like always and she does. 15 seconds on Stir.
