• After completion of the baking process (approx. 5 to 8
minutes), carefully open the unit and remove the baked
items with the help of a flat wooden, silicone or plastic
spatula.
Never use a sharp or metal object (e.g. knives, metal
spatulas, etc.) as this will damage the non-stick coating.
• The cupcakes are done when they are golden brown on
the bottom and light tan on the top.
• If cupcakes do not lift out easily, close the cover and bake
a few minutes longer.
• To Bake more cupcakes, re-brush the cooking surface
with oil or cooking spray, close the appliance again and wait
until the heating surfaces have reheated sufficiently.
• When the ready light illuminates again, the baking
process can be repeated as described above.
• When done using the unit, disconnect the electric
plug immediately. Keep the appliance open allowing
it to cool down.
• Caution: The heating surfaces as well as the sides and
top of this appliance may get very hot. Avoid contact with
these hot areas by only using the handles and an oven mitt.
• The appliance must always be positioned horizontally on
a flat surface during use.
hELPfUL hINTS
1. There may be a slight smell and a small amount of
smoke the first time the appliance is used. This is normal
and temporary. Make sure there is sufficient ventilation.
2. Should the top of your cupcakes or muffins be
light and not brown, try adding a little more batter to
each cavity.
3. If the sweetheart cupcakes are too brown,
insufficient batter is used or the cooking time is too
long. Ensure cooking plate is full or reduce cooking
time before checking.
4. Make sure that the plates are cleaned and lightly oiled
before each use to prevent the sweetheart cupcake from
sticking and ensure easy removal.
5. Use only wooden, plastic,or rubber utensils. DO
NOT use sharp-edged cooking tools such as knives,
forks, spoons etc. as the scratching will affect the
non-stick performance.
6. The Sweetheart Cupcake Maker allows you to use
any store bought cake mix. Follow package directions to
prepare the batter, but please note that the Sweetheart
Cupcake Maker cooks faster than a traditional oven and
therefore the cooking times will need to be adjusted.
