About this deal
Multi-functional: The fact that it comes with 3 attachments and 6-speed controls makes the Aucma capable of handling batters of varying densities, be they the light egg whites or the dense dough for bread. Don’t be mistaken, we love hand mixers and have tried and tested many fantastic models over the years, but stand mixers offer something different: power. This requires the machine to mix ingredients that could be thrown out of the bowl by the force of the paddle and can become lumpy if incompletely or incorrectly mixed. Soft silicone edges on both sides guarantee that mixing is completed thoroughly without scratching your 5-quart mixing cup. We looked for pavlova mixes that were glossy and well-whisked, cake mixes that were light with evenly distributed zest and finally, well-risen dough that was soft and light when baked.
Not to be missed, our Best Value pick, the Bakery Chef by Breville, has high scores for performance and looks. Some of our partners may process your data as a part of their legitimate business interest without asking for consent. The elasticity of the dough promotes retention of CO2 — a byproduct of yeast consuming sugar — that makes dough rise.Editor's Note: We updated this review on June 8, 2023, to remove some discontinued KitchenAid models. It's the perfect combination of size and power, and it checks nearly all the boxes when it comes to performance.
It only comes with four speed settings, and its top speed could have a bit more umph, especially for whipping eggs or cream.This guide is regularly updated with new models that have been tried, tested and top-rated by BBC Good Food’s reviews experts.
