Product Review

For years, professional and commercial chefs have known the secret and benefits of using high-temperature silicone bakeware. This baking mat incorporates the same design and features favored by professional chefs. It can go from temperature extremes of -58 degrees F to 900 degrees F, from freezer to oven. The unique finish creates a non-porous, non-stick surface which promotes even heat distribution and quick cooling, and will not retain odors or flavors. The mat can be rolled or folded easily for space-saving storage and has easy to read inch and centimeter measurements along its sides. It measures 16 3/4 by 11 3/4 inches overall, but can be cut to fit any size pan.

Forget parchment paper! This reusable baking mat saves plenty of money by lining your trays for a lifetime of cookie baking. The mat is made of FDA-approved food-grade silicone--the long-standing material of choice for professional bakers. The mat can withstand temperatures ranging from –58 degrees Fahrenheit to 900 degrees Fahrenheit so cookie dough can go from pastry board to freezer to oven without any problems. Silicone promotes even heat distribution so baked goods come out moist and delicious. A high-gloss nonstick finish makes it easier to remove cookies or pastry from the baking mat and, because it is nonporous, it won’t retain the odors or flavors of your food after cooking. Measuring 16-3/4 by 11-3/4, this mat fits most standard-size baking sheets. It also can be used on a wood cutting board or kitchen counter to create an impromptu pastry station. The mat grips any surface and won’t slip while kneading dough; plus inch marks (up to 16 inches) across the bottom help line dough up to cut exact strips for cookies or biscotti. SilconeZone’s revolutionary baking mat is dishwasher-safe and is covered by a lifetime guarantee. --Cristina Vaamonde

5.0 out of 5 stars I agree that this is a great product, March 6, 2004

My first experience with a silicone mat was nothing short of a revelation, so I went on a mission to see if the several brands available offered anything the others lacked. In my opinion, this one performs as well as the others that I have used (which is to say it's fantastic). I use them for pastry, cookies, and any other baking that normally threatens me with over baked bottom sides, and breakage due to sticking. I have not used them for candy, but sugar that has fallen from cookies, and carmalized on it's surface doesn't stick in the least. This is a great product.For roasts, I use a roasting pan. I like to make my own gravy, and I don't see how a silicone liner would help the process. For pizza, I use an air core pizza pan that is riddled with holes to ensure a crisp crust by allowing moisture to escape rather than turning the bottom of the pie into mush. The same holds true for reheating a pizza. To put a silicone pad between a pizza and the heat source is inviting pizza...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars These things rock, February 4, 2004

The previous reviewer seemed to have mistaken a baking mat - replaces parchment paper or grease on a baking sheet - with a baking sheet. What it does is provide a surface to which almost no baked products adhere. Why you'd do a roast or pizza on top of it is beyond me. I've used it for cookies, various candied desserts, and a number of things where you'd otherwise have to line or grease the baking pan. In each case it performed superbly. It's also incredibly easy to clean (unless, apparently, you do something ridiculous like puncture it).

As background I'ld like to state that I am in no way affiliated with silicone zone the maker of this product. I am also of a technical background and have seen some very amazing technology but this bakeware sheet is really something else.

Anyone that has taken a basic Chemistry class knows that substances made of silicon have particularly nice properties, namely it is extremely stable under high heat.

[...]the silicon(e) material is a compound of silicon and oxygen that shares many of the properties of the elemental silicon which is within it but adds a flexibility that makes it a good candidate for use in many gels, lubricants and even breast implants. Now in the form of silicone zone bakeware we can take advantage of the flexibility and high heat retention of silicone.

Upon first recieving the package I was amazed that the material would resist oven temperatures. When I touched it I was almost *sure* it couldn't. The surface feels tacky, almost...Read more
