Review on Babycakes Donut Maker Mini: Deliciously Effortless Treats in Seconds! by John May

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great for gluten free donuts!

Finally gluten free donuts! This little donut maker worked great! I had the best gluten free donuts in 3 minutes. I am very happy that I bought them. I used Nicole Hann's recipe. If you are a gluten free person then you have probably bought her books. I was able to make 36 donuts in no time. I filled a quart-sized ziplock bag with batter and cut off the top to send the batter to the donut maker. It worked fine but I'm going to buy a cupcake stick now as I know I love this little donut maker. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because when I finished making donuts and the machine had cooled down, I went to pick up the donut machine and oil leaked from the machine onto the counter and floor. Apparently, moisture and oil are sucked under the hobs and when you put the machine in the locked position, oil drips from the hinged area at the back. You may be wondering why am I adding so much butter to the dough? There was only 4 tablespoons of oil in the donut batter and I didn't use it on the metal plates. This is just a warning for other users to be aware of. I parked the car on the newspaper overnight to drain. I don't know how this will affect the donut maker with prolonged use and I hope it doesn't become dangerous.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • is embarrassing
