Where is the ice cream – I live approx 30km from the original Peters factory in Brunswick. I purchased an 8 pack of so called choc wedges at Woolworths expecting them to be CHOC WEDGES they are…

definitely not. They are more like what used to be called Choc Pals which were just a milky ice block sold by Peters. Same old story sell out to multi nationals out down goes the quality. Apart from them not even being a wedge shape any more they are no longer icecream. TOTALLY DISGUSTED even the dog wasn't interested. NOT A THING See review,

Not Happy – I purchased this mixer with it stand as for the last 12-15 years I have only had a hand held mixer and found it very time consuming when beating egg whites for pavlovas/meringues.…

As I was shortly due to retire and intended doing more cooking I decided to purchase this Sunbeam mixer.

The first time I used it I was not happy as the bowl is far to big to cream 125g butter, the beaters just skim over the top so I had to take it off its stand and use as a hand beater.

It works OK if you are using a packet mix as there is enough mixture in the bowl, but it still needs scraping down constantly.

Tried making a 2 egg batch of meringues (no go).

Then yesterday I was to make a 4 egg(large size) pavlova for a barbeque, it wouldn't beat those either had to take it off its stand again until they had foamed up more, it was the OK except for having to scrape the sides the whole time. Sorry have none Bowl too big for small amounts. Very noisy. The bowl turning feature is no more than a gimmick and is of no benefit whatsoever.
