The Swiss Army Knife Of Baking Is Here

Isaac Taylor

You might already be well ahead of the curve or you picked up baking for the first time during lockdown. I like to think we all picked up new skills over that time. In the kitchen you might be looking at getting a new instrument here and there, or an entire refit. Whatever your situation might be, keep your eye on the Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL.

The new Chef Titanium Baker isn’t your typical bargain bin mixer, it delivers the ultimate kitchen performance with a host of new features created for the baking connoisseur.

If you’re like me, and tend to clean as you go, then this Kenwood has your back. It mitigates the mess and clutter in so many different ways. Just for starters it has built in EasyWeigh Scales, so you can measure literally as you go. The scales also work with optional attachments, so you’re not dumping too much salt into your recipe and desperately trying to scoop it back out again.

It comes nested with two bowls; a large 7 litre bowl with a smaller 5 litre mixing bowl inside it. Both of them fit in the mixer with zero extra attachments, so you can swap in and out in a flash.

It has an intelligent speed control as well, so rather than going full blast as soon as you turn it on, flicking the contents all over the kitchen, it has a soft start function, easing in. Then after that you have 1200W of power to work with to really pummel heavy doughs and fruit cake mixes.

Its trusted reliability is combined with a fresh iconic design and its latest feature, the interchangeable PopTop cover. This allows users to adapt and update the top to suit their style, personality and kitchen.

Finally, it uses Kenwood’s signature K-Beater as well as stainless steel dough tool and whisk, all of these are easy to clean and effective to use.

With 25 optional attachments, I wasn’t just being hyperbolic about the Swiss Army Knife comparison; you’ll be able to blend, slice, spiralize, shred, grate and juice anything to perfection.
