do you get a lot of powered sugar sloshed out of your mixer once you start adding the 2nd half?

what speed should we mix on for the 9 minute mix after the scrape down?

While I am adding the sugar I have the mixer on stir or 1. Then I turn it up to 6 and mix for the 9 minutes. I have a plastic guard on the top so the sugar dosen't fly out, but yes it would without that. HTH.

patty thanks I forgot about my plastic guard.... now does your mixer get hot after the 9 minutes?

My 4.5 qt 350 watt does. But my 6qt 575 watt doesn't (maybe a little warm, but not hot. The 4.5 qt smells like its burning.
