To celebrate the launch of Appliance Addict, we have a stand mixer worth $499 to give away to one lucky reader, thanks to our friends at Bodum. Better still, you can choose from these four colours to complement your kitchen!

Bodum stand mixer four colours

Best known for its iconic French Press coffee plunger (I remember buying my first in the 90s and thinking I was very posh and grown up) and, more recently, its double-walled tea and coffee glasses, Bodum also has a surprisingly wide range of good-looking kitchen appliances including kettles, toasters, blenders, coffee machines and coffee bean grinders.

Bodum BISTRO stand mixer specs:

  • 700-watt, 7 speed mixer with tilt-up head
  • Stainless steel mixing bowl holds 4.7l
  • Includes dough hook, beater and whisk
  • Measures 234 x 397 x 343 mm.

To be in with a chance of winning, simply comment below and tell us about your favourite recipe, which you’d love to make in your new mixer, then make sure you’re signed up to our weekly newsletter here.ย You must complete both steps for your entry to count. Competition closes at midnight on Wednesday 5 June 2012. Winner will be notified by email. Open to Australian residents only.

Will you check out the joyful and colourful reno of her holiday home (and airbnb) @yo_caba_caba?!

Head over to the blog via link in bio to read all about why she went bold and full of pattern in this project, which is a stark contrast to her zen and neutral Northern Beaches abode.

There's also plenty of details about where things are from etc.

"Iโ€™m not an interior designer so I just chose what I liked and followed my gut. Ultimately this home has been an opportunity to explore my alter ego โ€“ it allowed me to do things that I wouldnโ€™t normally do.โ€

Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial family category and they're a special gift. So ends three weeks with @danisteve81 who left her husband and son in the UK (I'm forever grateful they lent her to me!) to come and cheer me up and help me in the most practical ways after I spent Christmas and New Year in hospital. There were tears and I miss her so much already but how amazing to have had all that time together as adults. Such a rare treat and would never have happened without having been through something so challenging. Silver linings and all that. So many other friends have also been incredibly thoughtful and kind. There aren't many times I'd say this without cringing but I am 100% blessed!

I still cannot believe we have been friends since we were 12! 12! Are you still close with your childhood besties?
The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_ho The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_house is a work of art and while almost every surface was updated, the decision to keep the original slate floor was genius if you ask us. 

Owner @clarehillier__ says: "With its purple, pink, red and brown tones, the slate was the starting point for our interior palette."

Come and check out the before and afters via link in bio now and read the reno story. It's a real beauty.

And you can book it for your next holiday too!

@newsouthwaleshealth have just put out this warning about a rise in serious bacterial infections. iGAS (invasive group A streptococcus) is what caused my necrotising fasciitis and sepsis.

Apparently there's similar happening in VIC too.

It's extremely rare but very serious nonetheless so please have a read and be aware of symptoms. I've linked to the article from a button via my link in bio.

    I have been attending Greek cooking classes and have just learnt how to make ‘ korabiethes’, traditional shortbread covered in icing sugar. They are absolutely delicious!

    Fab idea Jen, loving your new blog (although my bank card may not!!!). I would love a gorgeous white mix master for my wannabe provincial style kitchen. With two little munchkins and dreams of an event planning business, it would definitely be well used for birthday cakes (and hubby’s fave choc bud bikkies!). Congrats on your new venture xx

    I am one of those disgustingly lucky women who have a husband who LOVES to cook and he is outstanding at it! I also have to eat gluten free so he whips me up amazing cakes, bikkies and other treats all the time. His carrot cake is a family favourite (think layers with cream cheese frosting…) so this would be first on the list!

    I love baking and went crazy for my daughter’s first birthday (made madeleines, several flans, canelรฉs, meringues and cupcakes. It took a full week of prep!). I only own a hand-held mixer, so this ultra good-looking BODUM stand mixer would just be amazing. If I won it, my first cake would be Nigella’s chocolate cloud cake (with Cointreau of course). Have you tried it?

She swore it was the secret to her sponge success, and since I’ve never been able to master it maybe she was right! Perhaps the Bodum stand mixer is just what I need to achieve sponge greatness?! PS.

    i would make my white chocolate and caramel rasperry cake!
    i made this cake by absolute accident when i put big chunks of white chocolate through a raspberry butter cake i love to make. some of the chocolate pieces sunk to the bottom of the tin and the cake came out with a delicious, sticky, caramel layer on the base.

    now everyone in the family requests this cake on their birthdays and i always personalise the icing to whoever is receiving it ๐Ÿ™‚

    my latest creation was a golf theme for my father in law with green ganache grass icing and a white chocolate and coconut sand bunker – complete with a flag in the hole and silver cashou golf balls!

    Great new site, congrats. How about a blog on the “Special T” machine from Nestle (& a petition to launch here!)…it broke my heart a little to leave mine behind when I moved back to Sydney from Switzerland but not practical trying to source pods. The first use for a fab Bodum stand mixer would be meringues – in desperation I have been known to whip egg whites in a salad dressing shaker – true story (it works, eventually).

  37. AvatarLeisa says

    May 29, 2013 at 7:19 am

    Congratulations on the new blog Jen, look forward to lots of lustworthy posts!
    Having one of these Bodum BISTRO stand mixers would open up a new world of baking heaven to me – I’m thinking some kind of chocolate tart – maybe even a chocolate pastry could be whizzed up with ease and I’d love to explore breadmaking too. As an enthusiastic home cook and lover of baked treats, maybe having this kind of mixer is all that stands between me and being a baking goddess! Just posting this is making me hungry!

    If I won the mixer, I wouldn’t know what recipe to start with – there’s just too many to count! I would probably use the mixer to make some fresh challah bread dough so that I can pop it into the oven and bake it for my sunday morning breakfast (perfect for french toast). More importantly, I would make Brown-Eyed Baker’s classic brownies recipe (because I attempted it last night and it failed horribly – I account it to lack of a real mixer), and then once baked (and cooled), I would seal it up tight and mail some over to you, Jen, as a thank you for picking me ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Desperate 52 year old seeking solid stand mixer for on-going relationship. Must be able to mix batters and cake mix, Having never had a solid stand mixer I am not sure what to expect from this relationship, but am looking forward to embarking on a baking frenzy with the right mixer. First recipe off the blocks would be my mother’s chocolate hazelnut torte. Made with “noisette” jam this brings back memories of teenage birthday parties in the 70s.

    Sunday night is Pizza night, and that means getting out the dough hook. Of late I’ve been varying the recipe: 20% semolina and 80% flour means a much crisper base without using a pizza stone, but can also make the dough inelastic. That’s a problem when doing calzones, which I do for school lunches from the same batch of dough I suspect our current mixer being a bit old isn’t helping. Enter a nice new red Bodum. *Crosses fingers*

    I love making lovely little meringues but my arm gets so sore holding the beaters!! I would love a Bodum stand mixter to relive my poor arm! Once the meringues are in the oven cooking I like to mix up a fresh berry coulis to go on top. Not to mention whipping the cream which would also be taken care of with the Bodum. I have one red wall in my kitchen and LOVE collecting red applicances to go in there too. Thanks for the new site- I am in love!

    I would love to mix up some lemon cake as well as pavlova with lemon sauce, I love lemon! I haven’t been making them for long yet when I do everyone loves it. Pavlova with lemon sauce will be a tradition in my future family, perhaps with lemon cake on the side just because we can.

    I would make a chocolate and beetroot cake. It sounds like an odd combination but the beetroot makes the chocolate cake so moist and gives it a lovely maroon colour (kind of like a red velvet cake) Topped with a fresh cream / cream cheese icing… it is just divine!

    I would use the mixer to make my mum’s delicious flourless chocolate cake – as a thank you to her for all the help and support she’s shown me in recent months as I make my own nest outside the family home!
    I’d then go wild with creativity and make my own recipes ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Plain & simple, all though I must admit its not an interesting or creative recipe. I have had unimaginable cravings for crepes all day, somehow I can’t get the thought of thin yummy batter gently frying in pan out of my head, I would deffinately whip up the batter in a new Bodum mixer,…if I had one. Topped with a dash of lemon and a sprinkle of sugar, My craving would be at peace. Best of luck everyone!

    My friend Kerry has a red mixer which I covet since the night she made fabulous pizza dough that rose right over the top of the bowl. The pizza base was the best any of us had ever tasted. I used the same recipe but did it the traditional was, kneeding the dough by hand on the bench. Still a great recipe but the dough was just missing that little bit extra from having been done in that awesome red mixer. I now covet the green one for my kitchen addition ;o)

    My Oma (Grandmother)’s Pletskeskoek. I am originally from The Netherlands and moved here 7 years ago. Last year my Oma passed away unexpectedly, just 4 months before we were due to go there. She always made us Pletseskoek which is a traditional cake from the area she grew up in. I would love to make it according to her recipe, it will remind me of my childhood and the wonderful times we had with her.

    I would love a Bodum stand mixer, There is heaps of recipes l would love to try with it as my hand held mixer and l don’t have a great reputation. But l would definitely use it to make my banana bread. There is nothing fancy about the banana bread, and it uses the usual ingredients of flour, sugar, cinnamon, milk, eggs, butter and of course bananas. But it is easy and the kids love it so it is the best lunch box filler.

    I would use it to make my friends wedding cake which I somehow got roped into making. The old handheld mixer just can’t handle the big batches of buttercream that I am going to need to make.

    I would use the mixer to make my Grandma’s pavlova recipe, it’s been a family favourite since I can remember and I’m pretty sure I could eat it every day. Until recently I had been making it with my Grandma’s hand-me-down mixer from the seventies (!) but it finally gave up on me, so I would love to have a brand new shiny one!

    Ethereal to the tongue, bright and pleasing to the eye, the dainty Parisian pastries known as macarons are tiny bites of luxury. Dissolving in the mouth, they give way to fillings of beguiling and delicious variety: ganache, butter-cream or citrus- and whiskey-soaked concoctions dancing with complexity.

    My favourite recipe that would use this stand mixer would be an apple teacake. I would cream the butter and sugar with the stand mixer while cooking the apples with butter.
    The chunks of apple would have with cinnamon and sugar. Pour in the lovely vanilla batter on top. It’s just divine and I keep coming back to it as it is so yummy!

    I would love to make my coconut cupcakes! A reciepe I have developed for my partner who loves coconut!

    Hands down my red velvet cupcakes (well The Hummingbird Bakery recipe that is!) would be my favourite recipe. And everyone I’ve ever baked them for will agree. These little red treasures are a tasty treat and just a little bit fancy – the perfect combo to come out of this handsome Bodum mixer.

    I would make my favourite eggless tiramisu! My current mixer is an ancient Kenwood which I inherited from my husband’s grandmother – it sounds like a 747 taking off in the kitchen when its running and it is starting to give off a funny burning smell when I use it. I think it’s days are numbered!!! It’s so loud it drowns out the TV in another room. My kids love what it makes but hate when I use it.

    Hi Jen,
    I love baking with my kids, it’s crazy and messy but they love it so I would use the Bodum mixer to bake patty cakes in every flavour and colour you could imagine, but especially vanilla choc chip. After the kids are tucked away in bed, I would use it to bake Raspberry and Macadamia Blondies, which are to die for and everyone asks for the recipe when I make it. And mud cakes for all the birthdays. And much more ๐Ÿ™‚

    I would try to make a pavlova. My family is cursed – we cannot whip egg whites! But with a Bodum Stand Mixer, I would be emboldened to break this voodoo, and whip egg whites til they’re white and fluffy, then the cream to go on top. And if it worked, I would move onto all the meringue-y goodness my family is barred from (unless we buy it). (Which isn’t the same).

    I would definitely make these – http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/17754/lemon+meringue+puddings
    With golden meringue on top, these soft lemon puddings will make everyone smile. The only way to get the meringue soft, fluffy & glossy is to whip it in one of the Bodum BISTRO stand mixers ( I would have the fresh lime green colour to liven up my kitchen).

  99. AvatarShell Sherree says

    The first thing I’d try would be meringues and pavlova using my mum’s recipe. I’ve been waiting until I finally get a mixmaster up to the job rather than my poor old handheld electric beaters ~ still chugging away but they have more patience than I do. To have one of these beautiful Bodums in white would be the icing on the cake. {I guess that’s the second recipe I’d bake!} Congratulations on your newest blog, Jen.

    Love this new blog! If I was to win this mixer I know I would definetly make a loaf of all natural banana bread for my boys. It’s a favourite in our house but as I have no mixer to speak of it takes me ages to make by hand. Would absolutely be amazing! The baking possibilities for me from then would be endless!

    The recipe i’d love to make is a Butter Cake recipe handed down to me from my mum. She gave me a vintage Women’s Weekly recipe box, with hundreds of recipes she collected over time back when i was a kid.

A perfect dessert (or ok, maybe sometimes i just have it for dinner and dont wait for dessert) my sticky date pudding is usually drenched with my homemade thick caramel sauce and served with a scoop (or maybe 3) of vanilla icecream – one of my favourite ways to spend a cold winter evening of which there seem to be many lately!!
