3.  Open the lid and if applicable, grease the baking surfaces slightly before baking for the 

fi

 rst 

time. 

4.  Heat up the device: Connect it to a properly installed socket. The red indicator light will 

illuminate as soon as the device has been connected to a socket. The green indicator light 
illuminates when the device has reached operating temperature. Always keep the device 
closed when it is heating up. 

5.  The device reaches its operating temperature after approximately 3 – 4 minutes when the 

green indicator light turns on. 

Please note: 

The green indicator lights turns off during fur-

ther operation and then turns back on at regular intervals. This is not a malfunction, but sim-
ply indicates that the device is heating up again or interrupting the heating process in order 
to maintain a constant operating temperature.

6.  Fold up the lid once the device has reached its operating temperature.
7.  Place the prepared batter in the moulds in the lower baking surface. The moulds in the lower 

baking surface should be adequately 

fi

 lled. The exact amount of batter that needs to be 

fi

 lled 

in the baking moulds depends on the consistency of the batter and can best be determined 
by performing a test baking cycle. Don't be discouraged if the 

fi

 rst baking attempt doesn't 

turn out perfect! 

8.  Carefully close the lid and let the popcakes bake for approximately 6 – 8 minutes. 
9.  Open the lid to check whether the popcakes have been baked according to your wishes or 

whether they need to be baked more.

10. When the popcakes are done, use wooden or plastic kitchen utensils to carefully remove 

them and place them on the enclosed rack so they can cool. 

11.  Fill the device again in order to bake more popcakes.
12.  If you do not want to bake more popcakes, pull the plug out of the socket and let the device 

cool off completely in an open state before you clean and stow it (see chapter “Cleaning and 
storage”).

Decorating popcakes

•  For best results, let the popcakes cool off before you decorate them.
•  The popcakes can be eaten pure or they can be coated with chocolate or another 

cake icing.

1.  Prepare the icing.
2.  Insert the enclosed sticks in the popcakes. 

This works best when the popcakes are on the enclosed rack and you quickly dip the stick 
in the prepared icing before inserting it in the popcakes. This ensures that the popcake safely 
stays on the stick. Let the icing dry brie

fl

 y before you decorate the popcake in the next step.

3.  Now coat the popcake with icing by dipping it in the icing. Let your 

imagination decide what other decorations you need: For example, try 
adding coloured or chocolate sprinkles for more decoration.

4.  To improve drying of the icing, stick the popcake with the stick in the 

popcake rack (see image) so that it stays upright.
