A stand mixer is a heavy duty kitchen appliance designed to streamline various food preparation tasks like mixing, whipping, kneading, and more. Brands like KitchenAid, Kenwood, Sunbeam, and Smeg offer models to suit different budgets, styles and cooking needs. Stand mixers are designed uniquely too, with a tilt head or bowl lift mechanism.
Whether sweet or savoury, a stand mixer can help to develop a range of delicious dishes. Classic baking tasks like mixing cake batter, whipping meringue and kneading dough are simple in a stand mixer. Add ingredients to the bowl, secure the mixing attachment and choose the desired speed setting. The stand mixer will do all the hard work, saving the usual time and effort required when mixing by hand. This results in a more efficient, less labour intensive baking process.
The range of stand mixer attachments at Everten expand these culinary possibilities even further. Dicing, grating and chopping attachments take the stress out of food preparation. Pasta making attachments, different paddles, whisks and dough hooks, meat mincing attachments, ice cream bowls and juicing attachments allow the home cook to create a range of sweet and savoury dishes and experiment with customised flavour combinations.

What size bowl should I choose?
Stand mixers are sold with a standard sized bowl. Everten also offers additional stand mixer bowls with different capacities. A larger bowl, typically over 4.5 litres, is ideal for large batches, while smaller bowls work well for everyday mixing.
Are stand mixers messy?
As long as the bowl is not overfilled, a stand mixer generally does a good job of keeping ingredients contained. A stand mixer pouring shield helps minimise mess even further, by covering the bowl and blocking any splashes. When mixing flour, icing sugar and other dry ingredients in a stand mixer, start slowly, then gradually increase the speed. This stops dry ingredients from puffing up and spilling onto the benchtop.
