With the KitchenAid Artisan Mixer 5KSM125 Onyx Black + Ice Cream Maker, you can make your own ice cream. That's useful, because you'll be able to make the ice cream entirely to your liking and you no longer need a spearate ice cream maker. The stand mixer has a lot of power thanks to the direct propulsion. This way, you need less power, which makes it suitable for heavy dough. Useful, if you want to make dough for pizza or bread. The mixing bowl has a handle, so you can grab it easily and attach it to the mixer. In the 4.8L mixing bowl, you can make batter for 1.5 cakes in one go.
