Reasons Why Silicone Baking Mats Are Better Than Parchment
- One word: SUSTAINABLE. Sustainability is all the buzz right now as it should be, because protecting our earth for the generations to come is cool! Unlike parchment paper, silicone mats can be used again and again, making it a very eco-friendly option in your baking/candy making tools arsenal!
- Silicone mats maintain their flat, non-stick surface so you never have to worry about the corners curling or puckering like you find with parchment paper. Silicone mats can help baked goods rise evenly when baking in the oven due to their flat surface.
- Easy release! These mats are nonstick, moisture-wicking, and silky smooth – Never have to worry about your flavorful cookies sticking to your disposable sheet or pan again.
- You can seamlessly use these mats when kneading or rolling out sticky doughs like cookies, pizza, and breads.
- Minimize clean-up time and prolong the life of your cookie sheets because the silicone mat creates a barrier, protecting your baking pans from your creation and causing less of a mess when it comes time for clean-up.
- Besides baking and confectionery, they can be used to reheat food in a pan or on tray in the oven.
- Timesaving! Are you in a time-crunch to get your recipe made in time for the holiday gathering or the office potluck? Don’t waste time having to measure out and cut parchment paper, just use a silicone baking mat instead that fits perfectly on a baking sheet.
