  • Gets so much use

    Ever since getting our stand mixer we use it all the time. We most recently made a cake with it and absolutely love how easy it is to use. Even my four year old is able to operate it. The stand mixer is also super easy to take apart and put back together. It’s also very easy to clean and to store.

  • Definitely a kitchen must have

    The last three and a half weeks I haven’t been able to do anything special with Lexi so today being a rainy day and Lexi absolutely needing and deserving some extra love we baked some brownies. I love how easy our Kenwood Baker is to use and it’s a great way to show Lexi how to use the scales when they’re built into the mixer. We just did a simple mix today but Lexi loved adding some extra smarties to them and we couldn’t wait to try one. ????

  • Making delicious focaccia, so easy & quick!

    Honestly, I never thought that I can be good at baking. Probably the reason why my attempts were not always successful before was not following the recipe. The built in scales make such a big difference for me, it is just too easy not to follow the recipe. Check out below the focaccia I made today. It turned out so delicious!
    Ingredients:
    * 500g white organic flour , plus extra for dusting
    * 7g dried fast action yeast
    * 2 tsp fine sea salt
    * 5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil , plus extra for the tin and to serve
    * 350-400ml likewarm water
    * 1 tsp flaky sea salt
    * 3-4 spoons dry rosemary if you don’t have fresh
    * 3-4 spoons dry thyme
    * 8 cheery tomatoes cut in half
    Method:
    Add all in the bowl starting with the flour, yeast, like warm water, olive oil, salt, dry thyme and rosemary. Use Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL with 5l bowl and Steel Dough Hook to mix all the ingredients. Use a spatula if any flour is left around the bowl. No hands needed, the Chef Baker does it all!
    Spray the baking tray with olive oil and spread the dough evenly. Added the cherry tomatoes and left in the oven for an hour to raise. Bake on 220 degrees Celsius for 35min. 25 min in, brush two spoons of extra virgin olive oil, water and salt. When ready leave the cool dough and it is ready to eat!
    The recipe was inspired by https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/focaccia/amp and tweaked to my taste. Enjoy!

  • Love the features and attachments

    I’ve been using my kenwood titanium chef Baker for a few weeks now. I have used different attachments and I am loving the kbeater works so well especially for cakes and butter cream. The highlight features and attachments are the inbuilt scales it’s an absolutely stand out feature so easy to use and so convenient. The splash guard is amazing no more splashes in my kitchen and love there’s a lid to add more ingredients while mixing. I’ve had so many compliments on how nice the stand mixer looks in my kitchen. I definitely recommend kenwood titanium chef Baker XL to everyone that is looking for buy or upgrade. Can’t wait to bake more with my mixer.

I can measure everything on my @kenwood_au Titanium Chef Baker XL stand mixer. That’s a stand out feature. The dial to adjust the speed is so smooth & the attachments are so easy place & remove.

  • First impressions - amazing!

    I’m so excited to be part of the team reviewing the Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL!

    My first impressions on receiving the box was the weight – it’s sturdy and deserves a spot on your bench!

    I love that it comes with two bowls – the smaller one sits inside the larger one so it’s easy to store. It also means there’s less need for washing up in the middle of a bake!

    There’s quite a few different attachments that come with it for different types of mixing, a spatula and splash guard. What I’m excited about is the built in scales – another time saver!

    I can’t wait to start baking!

  • Perfect for ANZAC Biscuits

    It arrived at the perfect time. I allowed my 4 year old to use it before anyone else and she loved she could make ANZAC Biscuits. Absolutely love how easy it is to use and the parts are really easy to clean too. It’s fantastic how you can select exactly what you want to help make baking a breeze. I love the added splash guard prevents things coming out of the bowl. I think the mixer definitely just helped us to make our best ever ANZAC Biscuits. The whole family gave them the tick of approval.

  • A must have for home bakers!

    It’s been a pleasure trying out the Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL. It comes with so many attachments (like the K Beater, second bowl and more!) that you have everything you need to really up your baking game.

    I love the built in scales – makes measuring faster – and the second bowl is so convenient to keep creating without having to stop and do some washing up.

    I did find the splash guard a little tricky to attach but otherwise everything else was very intuitive to use. And for all the style lovers, you can switch out the top cover to match your decor!

    Definitive recommend this if you’re looking to upgrade from a hand mixer.

  • Thumbs up from me!

    It has been an absolute pleasure reviewing Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL. Such an amazing appliance. I have tried all attachments, apart from the guard, as I just love to see how the magic is created. All attachments have been so handy for me.
    The built in scales is probably one of the next features for me, as well as how powerful the Chef Baker is. Weighing the ingredients straight in the bowl saves time, washing up and it is so easy!

    Love that you can buy additional 25 attachments and turn your Chef Baker into a pasta making machine or a blender! So clever!

    I really find baking a lot more enjoyable now , so definitely thumbs up from me 🙂

    The Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL is an amazing small appliance to have. The multitude of attachments it comes with means that you can bake so many different things.

    It was easy to make dough for bread and cake mixes. I did find the splash guard a bit fiddly to fit on (could just be I was doing it wrong). The built in scales are very handy. I’ll definitely be baking a lot more now I have it!

  • A wonderful way to expand your baking repertoire

    It’s been great trialling the Kenwood Chef Baker XL. I’ve always been daunted at the thought of baking bread and trying to knead dough. Using the dough spiral tool makes kneading dough a breeze.

    I used the Milk Bread recipe in the Kenwood website and was so happy with how they turned out. It’s so handy having the different attachments and I love the built in scale and timer which shows how long the mixing has been going for.

    A must have for every kitchen!

  • Best way to make buttercream icing!

    I make a lot of icing, so I knew the Kenwood Chef Baker XL mixer would come in extremely handy.

    Many times I need to make several batches for icing cakes, so the inclusion of 2 bowls with this mixer saves me from washing dishes to reuse the same bowl each time.

    The creaming beater (pictured in the photo), is so effective. It reaches all areas of the bowl, even the very bottom! So there are no bits of unbeaten butter or other ingredients that the may be missed by the beaters. I was so impressed with this beater!! My icing turned out perfect, with a beautiful smooth consistency.

  • Easyweigh scales saves me time!

    I used the Kenwood Baker XL to make this delicious Ginger Bundt Cake. My favourite feature has to be the easyweigh inbuilt scales. It saves so much time, as well as cutting down on extra dishes!

    I added each ingredient to the bowl, and this clever machine weighed it for me at the same time! I would recommend this mixer based on this feature alone!

  • Great for cakes!

    Being a first time stand mixer user, I decided to start with baking a basic sponge cake using the Kenwood Chef Baker XL that I’m trialling.

    I used the recipe from the Kenwood website which resulted in a deliciously light and fluffy sponge that wasn’t too dry. Cake mixes use the K beater tool which is nice and solid.

    I love that you can weigh ingredients into the bowl with the built in scale and much less mess than a traditional hand mixer. The integrated timer was handy as well to know how long it has been mixing for.

    Loving the mixer so far and can’t wait to test it out some more!

  • Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL First Impressions

    So excited to receive my Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL Stand Mixer. I absolutely love baking and I can’t wait to make some cupcakes for my boys. So my first impression was I so impressed to see so many items included in the box. Everything I need for my baking creations. Included were 7L Stainless Steel Bowl, 5L Stainless Steel Bowl, Stainless Steel K-Beater, Stainless Steel Dough Hook, Creaming Beater, Stainless Steel Whisk, Splash Guard & Spatula. So convenient having two bowls especially when I make cupcakes one for the batter and another for the buttercream. The standout feature on the Kenwood Titanium Chef Baker XL is the in built EasyWeigh Scales. I can’t get over how amazing it is to have such a necessity item inbuilt into the stand mixer and it’s so convenient. Having a variety of attachments I can make all sorts of desserts, bread, pizza and so much more. I love that includes a splash guard too, no more mess in my kitchen. Such a beautiful design very simple and elegant that would suit every kitchen. I was reading a booklet that was in the box, that additional attachments can be purchased like a juicer, pasta maker, mincer and so on. This is absolutely amazing to have a all in one appliance.

  • My first baking session with the Kenwood Baker XL

    Ok, I am sold on this machine based purely off the inbuilt scales!!!! I decided to use the Kenwood recipe for the ‘celebration cake’, but turn it into cupcakes for Mother’s Day.
    I measured out all the ingredients straight into the bowl using the inbuilt scales, an absolute game changer!!! ????????

    Then as soon as I turned the machine on, the scale screen changed to to a clock and it then kept track of how long the machine had been mixing. Another great feature!

    Making these cupcakes and the icing were a breeze, plus they were delicious! Not only do I recommend this mixer, but also the recipe! ❤️

For lighter wines that still taste like the real deal, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened range is quickly becoming a go-to. These bottles bring all the flavour with noticeably less alcohol, which is why everyone’s falling in love with them.

Best SIPS’ Chapel Hill Enlightened Wines review team put the Rosé and Pinot Grigio through their paces, and the feedback was unanimous: both are fresh, light and perfect for summer sipping without the unwanted morning crogginess.

A rosé with summer written all over it

Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Rosé is bright, crisp and fruity, hitting all the right notes without tipping into the “too sweet” zone. It’s the kind of bottle you reach for at a casual barbecue or any get-together where you want something delicious but easygoing.

It’s exactly this balance of lightness and full flavour in an affordable bottle that has so many fans raving.

“Light, refreshing and honestly just feels like a little moment of peace in a glass. The flavour is this perfect mix of crisp + fruity without being too sweet — literally the kind of rosé you can sip while you finally sit down after a long day.”

A summer staple … on the lighter side

“Too many of these low alcohol wines just don’t taste enough like the real deal-but this is a sure fire exception. Beautifully refreshing, with a touch of sweetness that’s not overwhelming. A gorgeous colour too, which is a bonus- after all, we also drink either our eyes! Add into the mix a reasonable price point- this rose is a winner!”

“I love a nice glass of Rosé and the Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé did not disappoint! It’s really light and refreshing and tastes like a really expensive wine. I love that this wine is really affordable, so I can enjoy a beautiful Rosé without breaking the bank more often. Definitely give this one a try!”

If your warm-weather wine rack needs an affordable new staple, this is it.

A Pinot Grigio you’ll be buying again (and again!)

For the white lovers, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Pinot Grigio is a solid everyday white that ticks all the boxes: crisp, clean, food-friendly and affordable.

Our taste-testers repeatedly praised how balanced and versatile it feels, whether chilled on its own or alongside simple meals and casual gatherings.

“We love a white to pair with our spring/summer lunches and especially our seafood. This option ticked all the boxes …”

A versatile sip you’ll keep reaching for

“I enjoyed the first sip to the last of this Pinot. Anything with pear and citrus is something I want to try and this lived up to that, but with a lighter alcohol content – which I appreciate! Enjoyed over dinner, it paired really nicely with the food I was eating. This wine is something I’d happily recommend to others.”

“The wine offered just the right balance of fruity flavours – fresh and vibrant, but never overpowering or too sharp. It paired beautifully with both our light lunches and dinner, making every meal feel a bit more special. I also appreciated how crisp and refreshing it tasted, perfect for unwinding and enjoying good company. Definitely a Pinot Grigio I’d reach for again.”

Your lower-alcohol go-to

The team rates Enlightened wines 4.34 out of 5 and recommends them for anyone on the hunt for flavour-forward wine with less alcohol. They’re bright, modern and made for the kind of moments where you’d love a glass, but still want to feel good afterwards.

  • The warmer weather tends to make alcohol go to my head faster – I’m not a big drinker, but just for that reason I’d seriously consider a low alcohol wine. The Pinot Grigio particularly sound as if I might enjoy it. I might well buy a bottle or two for Christmas.

  • Looks delicious, would be keen to try their wines based off the reviews. Love anything local and the light wine is just an extra win – low alcohol content would be fab for nights with friends where we all still have to drive home afterwards so would be buying for that type of event!

  • Chapel Hill Wines do have quite a good reputation. I like the fact that it is low alcohol content. Personally, I like a very sweet wine but many would like these as they are not so sweet. I wish them well with sales and think it’s good they are doing something about lowering alcohol level.

  • Thanks for sharing this review. It sounds that the taste is good, the price is good and the alcohol content is really low indeed. I do like the fact that they’re light. One of the things I don’t like when you’re drinking a couple of glasses that it fills you up and it affects your appetite

  • I appreciate all the reviews and think this is an excellent way to get your brand out there and known.

  • I like the sound of the Pinot Grigio and will look out for it next time I’m at the bottle shop.

  • I just asked the forum for recommendations on zero alcohol, but this is an attractive option as well! I do enjoy a Rose, so will try this one after all the positive reviews. It’s a shame they don’t have a sparkling in their collection yet! Would have been prefect for all the celebrating at this time of year.

  • I dislike rose, but the pinot grigio sounds like it might suit me. To be honest, the alcohol content doesn’t bother me all that much – I rarely drink more than a glass or two anyway – but it would probably be nice from a general health point of view to know I’m consuming less alcohol.

  • This sounds like the perfect glass. I do love being able to have a few drinks and not be all over the place about me. And as a bubbly girlie from Adelaide myself, I’m sure I’ll find a lot to like about this drop. Crisp and not too sweet, I’m sold and will have to try it.

  • It was the first time for me hearing about the chapel hill brand. And i still recall when i picked up the Pinot Grigio from my local, the staff there actually stopped me and said i picked a winner! She said that it was probably the best Pinot they had available to sell.

    Reply

  • I’ve heard a lot of good things about Chapel Hill wines and the reviews are always good. I like that they have low alcohol range as I like to have a few glasses when I finally get to have one. Not being too sweet is a bonus that suits me well.

    Reply

  • The idea of having a lower alcohol content wine without compromising taste is really exciting. There’s nothing worse than feeling “under the weather” from the effects of alcohol. This lovely wine ticks all the boxes, lower alcohol and a refreshing flavour. I’m keen to get the Pinot Grigio in my cart and into my fridge!

  • This wine sounds delightful and really refreshing to enjoy on a summer afternoon. I love that it tastes fresh and crisp and still has the same punch as other wine. It sounds like an absolute delight. I will have to give it a try next time i am at the bottle shop looking for some wine.
