We stock a range of quality appliances for the keen cook, from state-of-the-art mixers and mincers, food processors, and blenders. 100% also offers dehydrators and electric carving knives as well as food storage options for all your food preparation needs. 100% stocks all the leading brands in kitchen appliances, including Sunbeam, Breville and more.
The rule of thumb between these two products is that the blender should be used for foods you can drink, like smoothies, cocktails and soups, and the food processor used for food you will mostly eat, like cake batter or bread. These appliances are not really interchangeable for the serious cook.
Blenders are ideal for making cocktails, smoothies, soups, purees and sauces as the motor is often stronger and will create a smoother, silkier result. Some blenders are also strong enough to crush ice.
Food processors have sharper blades and a wider base, so are great for chopping things finely - creating biscuit or bread crumbs, cauliflower rice, and chopping nuts and herbs. This is also a better choice when you want a coarser texture in a dip or a spread. Many food processors come with slicing, shredding and grating attachments so offer many food prep options.
