WHIPPING STAGES
With your KitchenAid

mixer, egg
whites whip quickly. So, watch carefully
to avoid overwhipping. This list tells
you what to expect.

Tips of peaks fall over when wire whip
is removed.

removed, but whites are actually soft.

and glisten.

WHIPPING STAGES
Watch cream closely during whipping.
Because your KitchenAid
®
mixer whips
so quickly, there are just a few seconds
between whipping stages. Look for these
characteristics:
Begins To Thicken
Cream is thick and custard-like.
Holds Its Shape
Cream forms soft peaks when wire whip
is removed. Can be folded into other
ingredients when making desserts and
sauces.
Stiff
Cream stands in stiff, sharp peaks when
wire whip is removed. Use for topping
on cakes or desserts, or filling for cream
puffs.
