We will be going to a wedding in the Wairarapa in a few weeks and I was wondering if you had gift vouchers available from your store!
Thanks for your help.

Man Pickles7 - you really do talk out of your butt sometimes.
That would have to be one of the most ridiculous generalized statements I have ever read.

Hi cookessentials - a bit off topic, but I wanted to hear your reccommendations on cake mixers - I had borrowed a friends "Breville Whizz" something or rather - stand mixer and it's ok - but I am on the lookout for something really good to buy my own.I had heard that Kitchenmaid were good, but the Breville with the sides scraper looks good too - I bake alot and also make bread, so want something decent.Any suggestions!

Hi Lisa Well, the KitchenAid certainly are one of the best on the market and used by many professional chef's worldwide. What I like about them is that they are a gear driven, direct drive machine as opposed to a belt driven machine. Many people mistakenly think that high wattage means better performance and this is incorrect. The belt driven machines are usually high wattage,whereas the KitchenAid is a lower wattage which is an energy saving feature as well as the fact that being gear driven, there is no need for fast and in-efficient motors. KitchenAid actually does a beater blade with the scraper edges. You will also find that the KitchenAid mixes to some 67 points in the mixer bowl as opposed to about 11 with it's competitors. The bowl will take enough dough for two standard loaves of bread The KSM150 Artisan stand mixer comes with the dough hook, wire whisk, flat beater and pouring shield as standard accessories. All the other parts fit straight onto the hub at the front of the machine. The KitchenAid side scraper type beater is called the flex edge beater. You will get a DVD and CD Rom with your machine which takes yu through the different attachments and what you can do with them. We actually run this DVD in the shop for people to get a better understanding of the machine. it is an all-metal construction and is hand assembled in the USA and before pickles jumps in to offer her "opinion" the stainless steel 4.8Litre bowl is made in Korea. The machine actually weighs 11.3 kilo's so it's no lightweight. We had a promotion on these in August and we sold eight.

It certainly did not look like it yesterday when I was in there - really well stocked.There is a small one across the road which had a sale on - not sure if it is that one.

Edited for afterthought:Post-wedding exchanges would be impossible too.
