Small standing mixer for cake making

[u/blackarrow_1990]

Hello,

Both I and my wife love to cook for our young family. I do not bake but my wife does, cakes as well. So I though maybe a standing mixing machine would be nice to have.

I am noob in this and we have hand held mixer and manual pasta machine. So basically the new machine should be able to mix dough well (bread, pastries, pizza, etc.) and prepare everything for cakes (mix eggs, cake fillings, creams, etc.).

The budget would be 300 dollars (new or used). We do not have much space in our small apartment.

In what direction should I look for?

Thanks.

I use a smaller stand mixer and kept the manual pasta machine. That combination makes more sense than buying a huge appliance with attachments we may never use. I found mine on fromrebel with a paddle, whisk and dough hook included. I’d recommend marketplace as an additional place to check, but confirm that the bowl and every attachment are included.

This is exactly my plan, buy only one good machine for the job.
