What do you love about the Wolstead Palette Stand Mixer?

It’s incredibly easy to use. I love the simplicity of the functions, modern design and different colour options. It worked beautifully while making my signature buttercream. I didn’t need to scrape down the side of the bowl while whipping, which was super impressive!

What’s your favourite feature?

The built-in scales allow you to measure ingredients as you go, streamlining the whole baking process. There’s also a pouring shield, whisk, dough hook and a beater included, plus three optional accessories; a food grinder/mincer, a pasta roller set and a silicone edge beater.

How do you achieve the pictured palette cake design?

I pipe buttercream on and smooth in one direction using a palette knife. This creates a lovely textured finish. I used four different colours for the buttercream to match the different shades of the new Wolstead Palette - dusty pink, denim, nougat and mint green, but the effect is just as striking using only one colour.

What are the big challenges in cake decorating?

Nailing all the key ingredients: good cake recipes, good buttercream and good tools. If you have all these elements in place, you are setting yourself up for success.
