Above all, the Ankarsrum Assistent mixer is a durable kitchen companion for your baking that you can expect to last 30 years. The main reason for this is that its unique design doesn’t strain the motor even when mixing or kneading dough in large quantities. The reason Ankarsrum Assistent is able to handle so much dough in a relatively small machine is that it rotates the bowl while its dough hook and roller attachments move about gently, replicating hand-kneading movement. Also, it doesn’t ‘walk’ across your work-surface which keeps noise to a minimum, and avoids you having to watch it while it mixes.

Invented in 1939, the Assistent Mixer is designed to delight bakers both in and out of Sweden, where it is still manufactured today. It is supplied with accessories for kneading and rolling dough, beating, whisking and more.

At BakeryBits we have all the Ankarsrum Assistent mixer colours available. Check out the full range below and get ready to transform your baking.
