When it comes to using a handheld mixer for baking, people are often working with chilled ingredients like milk, eggs and butter. Oster is now introducing an all-new hand mixer that boasts the ability to gently heat ingredients to room temperature so that they are a bit easier to work with.
The Oster Hand Mixer with HeatSoft Technology uses warm air so that something like butter can be warmed 12 times faster as compared to letting it sit on the counter for 30 minutes to soften.
As many baking recipes call for butter to be at room temperature, this new kitchen gadget has the potential to cut down on recipe preparation times and save consumers the hassle of having to heat up butter in a microwave and clean the dish used to do so afterwards.
