This newly unearthed collection of images reveals the evolution of the KitchenAid mixer over the last 100 years.
The brand, which celebrates its centenary this year, was founded by engineer Herbert Johnston, of Ohio, who was inspired to make back-breaking work of kneading bread dough easier.
After securing a major contract to install large scale appliances on US Navy ships, Johnston turned his attention to creating a household mixer - and the KitchenAid was born.
1919: The first consumer KitchenAid is released, pictured, sparking a shopping frenzy. The product was the brainchild of American engineer Herbert Johnson, who was inspired to create an electronic mixer after seeing the hardship faced by a baker making bread by hand
1924: Just five years later and the stand-up kitchen aid had become a must-have for homes across the country. Stars including Ginger Rogers and Julia Childs queued up for their own
1936: By the mid 1930s, KitchenAid had already landed on a design that is strikingly similar to the one seen in homes across the world today
Over the coming decades the stylish kitchen appliance - which comes in a range of candy coloured hues - became a must-have for amateur cooks and professional chefs alike but it reached new heights of popularity after its debut on the Great British Bake Off.
Now, to mark the milestone, KitchenAid has opened its archives to provide FEMAIL with an exclusive set of vintage posters, early product shots and magazine features dating from the conception of KitchenAid to the present day.
The straightforward name came from the wife of an early employee roped in to take part in an early product test.
1936: Targeting families this advert sings the praises of KitchenAid, saying it requires 'no effort at all'
1937: Published in The American Home, this magazine reveals how KitchenAid is now available at a 'greatly reduced price'. It also introduces shoppers to some of the attachments available
1950s: Some 20 years later and the design looks largely the same, although a new 'large family model' has been released. In 1955 the first coloured KitchenAids - in Sunny Yellow, Island Green, Petal Pink and Satin Chrome - were introduced and became an immediate hit
‘I don’t care what you call it,’ she reportedly exclaimed. ‘It’s the best kitchen aid I have ever had.’
The release of the pioneering kitchen appliance, which gave customers greater flexibility and range than a typical mixer, caused a sensation, with high profile figures including Henry Ford and Ginger Rogers among those desperate to snap up a KitchenAid.
Over the years new versions of the mixer were produced to reduce its size and weight - making it even more appealing to the mass market.
1962: This straight-talking advert once again zeros in on the multi-functional design of the KitchenAid. It is described as a 'rugged' appliance with a 'powerful motor'
1980s: This advert made a bid for the 'serious cook' looking to elevate their at-home creations
The gadget also won widespread praise for its sleek, softly curving design. In 1937 the KitchenAid K-Model, which boasted a new tilt head, was born and it became one of the first appliances to be exhibited in museums of modern art.
In 1955 marked another key moment for the brand, with coloured mixers being produced for the first time. Sunny Yellow, Island Green, Petal Pink and Satin Chrome were all introduced.
The KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer is now available in the widest range of colours on the market.
2018: The £699 Artisan 4.8L Tilt-Head Stand Mixer in Misty Blue has been released to mark the centenary of KitchenAid

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
