Whipping Stages

With your KitchenAid® Stand Mixer, egg whites whip quickly. So, watch carefully to avoid overwhipping. This list tells you what to expect.

Frothy

Large, uneven air bubbles.

Begins to Hold Shape

Air bubbles are fine and compact; product is white.

Soft Peak

Tips of peaks fall over when wire whip is removed.

Almost Stiff

Sharp peaks form when wire whip is removed, but whites are actually soft.

Stiff but not Dry

Sharp, stiff peaks form when wire whip is removed. Whites are uniform in colour and glisten.

Stiff and Dry

Sharp, stiff peaks form when wire whip is removed. Whites are speckled and dull in appearance.

Whipping Stages

Watch cream closely during whipping. Because your KitchenAid® Stand Mixer whips so quickly, there are just a few seconds between whipping stages. Look for these characteristics:

Begins to Thicken

Cream is thick and custard-like.

Holds its Shape

Cream forms soft peaks when wire whip is removed. Can be folded into other ingredients when making desserts and sauces.

Stiff

Cream stands in stiff, sharp peaks when wire whip is removed. Use for topping on cakes or desserts, or filling for cream puffs.
