SUPER KITCHEN Premium Food Grade Double Thickness Silicone Pastry Mat with Measurements 28'' By 20'' Nonslip for Rolling Dough Baking Mat

Product Information

This non-slip silicone mat is perfect for rolling dough and baking prep. The mat has measurement markings, conversion tables, and grid lines for detailed pastry work. It also has a chart for ingredient substitutions, so you don't have to search the Internet for a solution when you're out of something. If you plan to use your pastry mat for baking, consider what size pans you have. A full-size sheet pan is 18 by 26 inches, but a half sheet pan or smaller is what most home cooks use. A half sheet pan's dimensions are 18 by 12 or 13 inches, which fits in most home ovens. But there's no arguing that it's the most photo-friendly choice for showing off your pastry creations, and you can even opt for a matching marble rolling pin to complete the set.

This silicone baking mat is not only covered by a lifetime warranty but it's also thoughtfully designed at a standard size that should easily fit the majority of baking sheets you’ve already got at home," say Monica and Jessica Valenzuela, co-owners and bakers at Little Boxes NYC Bakeshop.

Top 5 Pastry Mats

Pie crust, pizza dough, strudel: No matter what you're baking, the best pastry mats will help streamline your prep process and give you the most delicious results possible. To that end, you'll want to consider whether you want a pastry mat or pastry board and which materials you prefer to use. Pastry Mats vs Pastry Boards Silicone baking mats come in different sizes, from a quarter or half sheet to a small jelly roll or extra-large size, and more. Make sure that you're getting the proper size(s) that will fit in your pans and work well for you. Several manufacturers also have silicone mat sets with multiple sizes available in them. Any aspiring pastry chef needs this baking mat in their life: "This mat provides a unique work surface for working with pastry," says Rachel. "It features radial measurements for rolling out discs of pie dough and a grid ruler for accurately cutting or shaping dough. It also has a conversion chart and common baking substitutes for easy reference."

Wonderful mat to prevent spills from going onto furniture. Also great for kids using playdough or slime. I absolutely LOVE this mat. For extra-large jobs, this extra-large baking mat is up to the task. It was the only baking mat tested that came with accessories: It includes a bench scraper, a silicone spatula, and a silicone tie wrap, the latter of which is a serious game-changer for storage. Lakeland is a trusted name in kitchenware, so it's no surprise that this high-quality pastry mat comes with an impressive three-year guarantee. We particularly like that this mat is non-slip, preventing it from crumpling up when you're at a critical stage of rolling out. Many reviewers enjoy using this large mat on top of their workspace to protect their counters. The standard size measures 27.5 x 20 inches, which won’t fit most baking sheets, but it comes in a variety of sizes for larger or smaller surface areas and baking trays.Pastry boards are a more classic choice (think: Parisian patisserie), and materials like granite and marble have temperature-regulating properties that keep pastry cool while you're working with it. Some pastry boards — like granite — are oven-safe, but other materials, like wood, are not. And keep in mind: Pastry boards tend be more expensive, heavier, and require a bit more care and upkeep. Pros And Cons Pastry mats which can go into the oven are another great help to those who find it hard to remove their rolled-out pastry. For example, if you're making shortcrust Cornish pasties, you could roll out the pastry on an oven-safe mat, add the filling, then transfer the entire thing to a baking tray in the oven. No more trying to scrape over-filled pastry off the work surface! With English and metric measurements as well as conversions printed right there on the surface, this silicone pastry mat makes baking a breeze — no more pulling out a ruler or reaching for your phone with doughy hands to calculate. Like the last product, it's oven- and dishwasher-safe, but you'll want to be wary of using a sharp knife to cut while using it. Choose from four sizes.

This mat is dishwasher safe, but the thin, floppy build makes it fairly easy to wash in the sink by hand: "The lighter color of this mat could retain more stains over time, but the material wiped clean pretty easily after the first initial uses," says Rachel. It should be noted that this mat measures 25- x 18-inches, making it exactly the right fit for a full sheet pan. However, Rachel found it flexible enough to fold in half for use on a half sheet pan. Where the New Zero Co. mats really shine is their soft, flexible design. They can easily be rolled or manoeuvred into a crowded dishwasher for easy cleanup.

Reviews

Oven Safe Temperature: 480 degrees | Sizes Available: 9.3 x 8.7 inches (toaster oven), 16.5 x 11.6 inches (half sheet) Although touted as being half sheet size, Rachel found that these mats didn't extend the full length of the sheet pan, leaving another ½-inch or so of wasted space.
