Commercial Planetary Mixers in Toronto & Canada

From icing a batch of cupcakes to whipping mashed potatoes for a banquet, Phoenix Food Equipment's Planetary Mixers collection covers a stationary bowl and a single beater that orbits around it — the right choice for lighter, aerated mixing rather than dense bread dough. Need something built for high-hydration dough instead? Our Spiral Mixers collection covers that job. Most of our range comes from Hobart, spanning the Centerline HMM series and the heavy-duty Legacy HL series from 5 up to 140 quarts, including a dedicated pizza-dough model in the HL662. Alpha covers 8 to 60 quarts at a more budget-friendly price point, Globe offers the same size range plus its own Pizza-model variants, and Eurodib rounds out the mid-range from 10 to 60 quarts, with two sizes available with a built-in meat grinder attachment. For a smaller kitchen or bakery counter, we also carry KitchenAid commercial and countertop mixers. Whether you're mixing dough in a Toronto bakery, icing cakes in a Mississauga bake shop, or running a commissary kitchen right here in Vaughan, we ship planetary mixers across the GTA — Markham and Hamilton included — and nationwide across Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from operators buying this kind of equipment.

What's the difference between a tilt-head and a bowl-lift planetary mixer?

A tilt-head planetary mixer has a motor head that tips back for bowl access and attachment changes — our KitchenAid Artisan-series mixers use this design, which suits a smaller kitchen doing lighter, everyday mixing. A bowl-lift mixer instead raises the bowl up to the beater on a support arm, a sturdier setup that handles bigger batches without the head flexing under load — our KitchenAid KSM70SNDXER uses this design, and it's the standard build on every commercial mixer in this collection from Hobart, Alpha, Globe, and Eurodib. Phoenix Food Equipment carries both styles, so you can match the mixer to how much you're actually mixing.

What attachments work with a planetary mixer?

Every planetary mixer in this collection comes standard with a flat beater (or paddle), a wire whip, and a dough hook, which cover most everyday mixing, whipping, and light dough work. Beyond that, our KitchenAid line adds a full range of optional attachments — a metal food grinder, a pasta roller and cutter set, a gourmet pasta press, and an ice cream maker — that turn the mixer's power hub into a second piece of equipment instead of buying a standalone machine. Our Eurodib planetary mixers take that further with dedicated meat grinder attachments sized to fit the 20/30-quart and 40/60-quart models directly. Phoenix Food Equipment stocks attachments alongside the mixers they fit, so you're not stuck hunting down a compatible part elsewhere.

What size planetary mixer do I need?

Planetary mixer sizing comes down to batch size, not counter space — capacity in this collection ranges from a 5-quart countertop model up to a 140-quart floor mixer. A 5 to 10-quart mixer suits a small cafe or bakery mixing a few batches of icing or batter at a time, 20 to 30 quarts covers most mid-size bakeries and pizzerias, and 40 quarts and up is built for a commissary kitchen or bakery running dough and batter in bulk all day — our largest, the Hobart Legacy HL1400, holds 140 quarts. Phoenix Food Equipment stocks that full range from Hobart, Alpha, Globe, and Eurodib, so you can match capacity to your daily volume instead of guessing.
