What makes the Muffinizer so special? 

Baking in the Varoma may sound unusual, but it's a real game changer! The Muffinizer allows you to bake with gentle steam, which keeps your muffins particularly moist. No drying out, no burning - instead, evenly cooked cakes with a velvety-soft consistency. And best of all: After baking, the Muffinizer simply ends up in the dishwasher, so you have more time for the nice things - like decorating your mini works of art!
