Two years ago I got an absolutely fabulous Christmas present...a kitchen aid mixer! And I love it! It beats things so much thoroughly and faster, plus I don't have to stand over the bowl. I can toss stuff in it, turn it on, and move on to the next thing while it's mixing! That's just too cool.
But there's only one drawback to this wonderful contraption. When making icing, the powdered sugar jumps out. So last night I decided I could prevent that, and held a towel over the top of the bowl around the beater. So 95% of the counter remained sugar free, but here's what did happen:

| and this will be a doozy to clean |
If anyone has a free-standing mixer, how do you keep this from happening? And yes, I have tried every speed.

I've never had that happen....do you use the shield that comes with the mixer? I do get flour all over the place if I forget to use the shield but that's just powder and wipes off easily...
mine didn't come with a shield!...must be why someone got such a good deal!
