My former Pastry Instructor was donating some cookies. The big Hobart was down and the KAs in the school bakery leave something to be desired (functionality in most cases), so I decided to take in a couple of DLXs and help out. I wish I had thought to take more than two short snippets of video, though.
Just for fun, the DLX in motion:![]()
