Yeah yeah, i bet youre all thinking "gosh here goes fwan again with her cleaning questions"

My mum gave me a cream wipper/cutter thing.. i can put veggies and fruit and make it into a milk shake or just cut up the veggies that way, so to me it looks like a blender..??

Anyway so far i have only used it to chop up carrots because my bunny is inbred and her teeth grow outside of her mouth so she cant eat hard foods...
ANYWAYYYYYYY!!!!!!

Now my blender is orange and i dont know how to get the stain off!
got any advice?

Wash it with some water with a bit of bleach in it, or you can fill it with some water and put a little bleach in it and whirl it like mixing a drink. Just be sure to rinse well!

You could also try soaking it with water and baking soda ("Natron" in German; you can get it in little packets, usually "Dr. Oetker", in the aisle with other baking needs. I'm not sure if Lidl carries it, but most other supermarkets do, or ask at the "Apotheke"). Carrots are a problem. Our nephew was nuts about carrot juice as a baby, and of course would drool all over our shoulders, staining everything! (I love to remind him of that).

That was my reaction when I first moved here - I kept looking for boxes, couldn't find them, and brought them back from the U.S.. Then somebody told me to look for little packets.

yeah, well i was trying to explain to my friend from norway that baking soda and baking powder are different, but she didnt get it.. becuase apparently they dont have it up there? we even looked in our dictionaries and we couldnt find baking soda so that was weird!
Thanx though, i will have a look at walmart when im there next

Why not just leave it orange? It sounds like you'll be processing a lot of carrots in it anyway.

I would go with the baking soda if I were you..... that stuff just cleans almost anything!


I normally soak my oven trays / shelves in that overnight, by morning they come up sparkling clean again
