HOW TO USE YOUR KRUMKAKE
™
BAKER
For best results, follow these simple instructions. Note that when your Krumkake
Baker is new, you may notice some slight smoking or odor. This is normal with
many heating appliances and will not recur. This does not affect the safety of your
appliance. Also, it is recommended that you discard the first two krumkakes from
your new baker.
1. Plug into a 110/120 volt AC wall outlet. The indicator light will begin to
glow, indicating that the baker has begun preheating. It will take
approximately 5 to 8 minutes to reach baking temperature. When the proper
baking temperature has been reached, the indicator light will turn off. At this
point, you will see the light going on and off. This only means that the baker
is maintaining the proper baking temperature, and NOT when to start or
stop baking.
2. Before baking the first krumkake of the day, use a pastry brush to carefully
coat the entire surface of both halves of the Krumkake Baker with vegetable
oil or melted shortening. Spray shortening works very well for this purpose.
Repeat this only at the start of each day that you bake krumkakes.
3. Place about 1 heaping teaspoon of batter on each grid pattern. You may want
to use 2 spoons to place the batter on the grid, using the second spoon to
push the batter off of the first spoon. With some experimentation, you will
learn that by placing the batter slightly behind the center of the pattern your
krumkake will come out closer to a round shape. This is because, as you
close the baker, the batter squeezes forward slightly.
4. Close the baker and clamp the handles together with the handle clamp.
Baking will take approximately 30-40 seconds depending on your preference
for browning, or the consistency of the batter.
5. Remove the krumkake from the grid with a spatula. If a flat krumkake is
desired, place it on a flat paper towel to cool. If you wish to shape your
krumkake, do so by removing one krumkake from the grid and shaping it
immediately while it is still warm. For a cone shape, use the wooden cone
roller provided. The other krumkake will remain warm and pliable until you
are ready to remove it for shaping.
6. If you need to take a short break, close the baker to maintain the heat. When
you return to baking, you will notice that the first two krumkakes will bake
much faster because extra heat has been allowed to build up.
7. When you are through baking, simply unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet to turn the baker off and leave the baker open to allow it to cool. After
it has cooled, brush any crumbs from the grooves and wipe off the grids with
a dry paper towel to absorb any excess margarine or shortening.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces, instead use the handles.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse power cord, plug or
appliance in water or any other liquid.
4. If the power cord is damaged, the manufacturer (or a similarly qualified
person) must replace it in order to avoid a hazard.
5. Do not use outdoors.
6. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is being used by or
near children.
7. Avoid contact with moving parts.
8. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may
cause fire, electric shock or injury.
9. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow appliance to
cool completely before putting on or taking off parts.
10. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged power cord or plug or after
the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner.
Return appliance to VillaWare for examination, repair or electrical or
mechanical adjustment.
11. Do not let the power cord hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch
any hot surface.
12. Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
13. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
14. To disconnect, remove the plug from the wall outlet.
15. Do not clean the appliance with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off
from the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electrical shock.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
