Thermomix Cupcake
Thermomix is a food processor made by the German company Vorwerk for the first time in 1961, capable of performing different functions such as cutting, mixing, kneading, simmering, boiling and steaming. But when we talk about Thermomix we mean any brand or model of food processor.

That is, it allows you to prepare everything you need to make any dish -even sophisticated ones-, and cook it. It is like a pot, frying pan and oven at home, with the ability to automate many processes.
With a good kitchen robot you can chop and grind food, grate and laminate fruits and vegetables, make smoothies, hummus, mousses and pâtés, purees and creams, broths and gazpachos, cake bases, dried fruit flours, weigh food ... But is also that, as there are so many good users sharing their recipes on the internet, you will be able to make multiple new recipes that you did not know, in a practical way. Some of the most difficult, and that the robot enables you to make them following the step by step of the good recipes for kitchen robots.
