Item Description
This rubber like non stick baking/freezing mat is a pan liner made of food grade woven silicone. It's thermal shock resistant from -40 F to 600 F and is reusable up to 3000 times. Its ultimate non stick properties are suitable for sugar, chocolate, viennoiserie and confectioner work, as well as cookies and cakes. It's preferable to roll the mat rather than to fold it for storage. No greasing or special maintenance is necessary. Clean with a sponge under warm tap water. The baking mat has a special silicone finish on one side only and therefore does not adhere to a working surface. The baking mat can also be placed directly on an oven rack or cooling rack. It is composed of fiberglass fibers and therefore cannot be cut.
Factor Benefits
- Heat resistant up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit
- Thermal shock resistant
- Silicone material
- Hand wash in warm water

Let me start off by saying I was skeptical of how this item would perform. Never used a baking mat before, but let me tell you we are a believer now. My wife bakes a LOT of cookies for Christmas, so I picked up several of these after reading other reviews. Well, after baking about 30 dozen cookies these mats performed wonderfully. All the cookies baked evenly and even the stickiest cookies (the Carmel Turtle Cookies) just slid right off.My wife was really happy with the performance. Clean up was easy, just rinse and wipe. We've noticed no difference in taste, no smell during baking, just perfect cookies.I compared against several other mats that were more expensive (including Silpat) and went with this mat due to price (about 1/2 the cost of the others) and are very happy with our decision.

I really love these baking mats. They fit right down in my cookie sheets and baking a homemade pizza was no problem. I usually have to use parchment paper, but this will cut down on buying that item.I also used these mats for my annual chocolate dipping. Instead of wax paper, I lined cookie sheets with the mats and put my hand dipped chocolates there to harden. When I popped them off, they had a neat "checkerboard" design on the bottoms from the mat.Drawbacks: I'm not crazy about the black border around the edge. Also, when I cut through a hard piece of crust, the pizza cutter scored the baking mat a little. This doesn't affect the usage of the mat, but it's advertised as "can't be cut." What they really mean is the woven fiberglass inside can't be cut, the silicon, however, is vulnerable...

I've looked through all the reviews (on amazon) for this product and found only one that mentioned a concern of mine. I noticed an unusual smell coming from the oven several minutes after I first placed the baking mat inside. It smelled of something akin to melting (or burning) rubber/plastic. I waited a few minutes to see if it would go away but it didn't. Being precautious, I wound up taking it out of the oven. I also noticed that the thick black trim was very hot to the touch, and the smell seemed to be coming from the trim, not the white center. I wish the manufacturer would mention something about this in the product description, perhaps what material is used for the black trim. Anyway, I'm still uncertain about using this baking mat. Does anyone know if this is normal for the first use? (it makes me think about the way a new toaster gives off a weird smell for the first few uses) I'd greatly appreciate any comments from someone who can relate to my concern.
