Silicone baking mats are flexible, non-stick sheets made from food-grade silicone, designed to be used in place of parchment paper or greasing baking trays. They provide a reusable surface for baking cookies, pastries, and other items, making cleanup easier and reducing waste. These mats can withstand high temperatures, typically up to 450°F (232°C), and are safe for use in ovens and freezers. These mats come in various sizes to fit different baking sheets and can be cut to size if needed. They are easy to clean, often dishwasher-safe, and can be rolled up for convenient storage. Using silicone baking mats can enhance baking results by promoting even heat distribution.
