There are all kinds of crazy baking gadgets out there, from funky cookie presses to mechanical pastry bags, and each year I get suckered into buying at least one. Most have not withstood the test of time or met my expectations, but the Silpat baking mat really takes the cake (pun intended!). I bought one last year and stocked up on two more this year so I could transform my kitchen into sugar central.
Silpats are made of heat-resistant material coated with super nonstick silicone. By placing one on top of your ordinary baking sheet, you eliminate the the need to grease it. They are especially great for delicate cookies that might otherwise have a tendency to stick to baking sheets or for super sticky concoctions like caramel or taffy. Also, when you’re making multiple batches, you don’t have to worry about washing your cookie sheet in between, which is a nice time-saver. They transform your baking sheet into a cookie-making miracle!
Silpats are also great for rolling out pastry dough. I just place mine on the kitchen table, dust it with a little flour, and then roll out my dough. Best of all, it cleans up really easily with a quick rinse of soap and water. Once it’s dry, just roll it up for compact storage.
Although they may seem a bit pricey at first glance ($20-25), you just have think about the money you would save on buying parchment paper – and all of the avoided frustration of stuck-on sugar cookies. You can silicone baking mats everywhere from places like Sur La Table and Williams-Sonoma to Target and Bed Bath and Beyond.
Happy baking!

I. Love. Silpats. I LOVE THEM! My friend Jenn introduced the to me about a month or two ago; she toasted up some delicious caramelized pecans and then tossed them on the silpat to dry. I went home and made the same concoction and threw them on a piece of parchment paper only to have a not-so-friendly piece of parchment attached to EVERY pecan, I was so pissed. Anyways, moral of the story – buy yourself a silpat if you want to avoid eating paper or wax paper…yes, I tried wax paper as well and yes, it resulted in the same papery pecans, yuck!
