I have a student who is having a difficult time mixing ingredients for cakes, cookies and the like. he has some physical difficulties with the stirring motion, and also has an physical aversion to certain textures one being creamed stuff, so no checking progress with hands, not pretty so I have been warned. Are there any adapted techniques or suggestions I can give him for making the mixing job more well tolerable and successful. He loves measuring, loves slicing things, but hates mixing.
I have already distributed grip mat to him to keep the bowl in place, but are there other ideas or techniques you all have used that have worked in the past?
I know that the main aversions are to a Kit kat type of texture, shaving cream, and other slimy things. He physically gags when he encounters these textures.

rather they thought of it as an act of divinely mandated righteousness.The same can be said of most of the violence we humans have ever committed. -Gil Bailie, author and lecturer (b. 1944)
