Go get baking

Want to try baking the basics, but not sure where to begin? Don’t sweat over the sugar – we’ve got the basics to get you baking.
From baking trays and cake tins, to kitchen scales and mixing bowls. All you need to do is pop on your apron, pick a recipe and decide who gets to lick the spoon.

If you’ve mastered the basics and feeling inspired to try something new, start by upgrading your baking equipment.
Stand mixers make great sous chefs; working on your meringue mix, whilst you crack on with the next steps of your recipe. Or experiment with new flavoured loafs, with a bread maker.

With up to 5 speeds (including a turbo-speed), you can quickly make light work of mixing, folding or whisking your ingredients together. Their compact size means they’re ideal for reduced portions and for storing away in smaller kitchens too.

These free-standing sous chefs allow you to continue with your recipe whilst they do the hard work of mixing ingredients together. Their movable arm and attached bowl means less mess, whilst the different attachments cater for your every baking need:

• Balloon whisk – helps get air in as it whips ingredients into creams, sauces or lighter mixtures.
• Flat beater – mixes batters, icing etc. into a smooth and even consistency.
• Dough hook – kneads together dough and heavy pastries.

Designed for bread or loaf cakes, the high sides help mould and shape your bake. Non-stick options will make getting your bake out easier, or run a knife around the edge to loosen it.

Oven dishes can give your pie that finishing touch. Designed to serve your pudding straight from the dish, the ceramic finish ensures your bake is cooked through.
