operAtion - Before use for the first time
Clean the baking plates before first use (see 'Cleaning and maintenance'). The appliance may emit a little
smoke and a characteristic smell when you switch it on for the first time. This is normal, and will soon stop.
Make sure the appliance has sufficient ventilation. During use the heating element will switch on and off
to keep the temperature of the baking plates constant. Consequently, the temperature pilot light will also
occasionally be illuminated.

tips
• Use your favorite recipes and mixes, or the recipes in the book of recipes.
• Most cup-cakes bake in 5 to 6 minutes. To determine if cup-cakes are done, insert a toothpick into
the center of the cupcake; if it comes out clean, the cup-cakes are done.
• Cup-cakes or muffins are very fragile and hot when just baked. Carefully remove them from the
cupcake maker and place on a wire rack. Use caution as the cup-cakes and steam are very hot.
Allow the cup-cakes or muffins to stand about 5 minutes before serving, even if you wish to serve
warm muffins.
• Use paper cake cases if desired when baking cup-cakes and muffins. They make removing and serving
easy. Paper cake cases are required for brownies and cheesecake as the baked brownies or cheesecakes
are so hot and delicate and must cool some before they are firm enough to hold their shape.
• You can decorate the cup-cakes with for example: frosting, marzipan, fondant, icing, chocolate,
chocolate vermicelli, sugar pearls, dusting sugar etc.
