Abstract
A mixing paddle specifically designed to produce pastry dough is disclosed. The mixing paddle is comprised of a shaft, a rim, a first plurality of parallel blades and a second plurality of parallel blades. The shaft bisects the rim, creating a first side and a second side. The first plurality of parallel blades is perpendicular to the second plurality of parallel blades.

A pastry paddle for use with an electric mixer comprising:
- a shaft, having a top and a bottom, and defining an axis about which the pastry paddle rotates;
- a collar for affixing the pastry paddle to an electric mixer;
- a first plurality of blades, each blade having two edges, two wide surfaces, a first end, and a second end;
- a second plurality of blades, each blade having two edges, two wide surfaces, a first end, and a second end;
- and
- a continuous peripheral rim;
- wherein the continuous peripheral rim, the collar, and the top of the shaft are joined together at a junction, with the shaft bisecting the continuous peripheral rim;
- wherein the shaft has a first side and a second side, the first side and second side being disposed opposite of one another;
- wherein the first plurality of blades is disposed on the first side of the shaft, each of the blades in the first plurality of blades is parallel with one another, and at least one end of each blade in the first plurality of blades is attached directly to the continuous peripheral rim;
- wherein the second plurality of blades is disposed on the second side of the shaft, each of the blades in the second plurality of blades is parallel with one another, each of the blades in the second plurality of blades is perpendicular with each blade in the first plurality of blades, and at least one end of each blade in the second plurality of blades is attached directly to the continuous peripheral rim;
- and
- wherein the continuous peripheral rim completely encloses each and every blade in both the first plurality of blades and the second plurality of blades.
