 Better for Bread than Cookies June 24, 2004
28 out of 35 found this review helpful
I use two cookie sheets at once: one with the Silpat and one with parchment paper. The Silpat cookies are over-cooked on the bottom; The parchment cookies are much better. On the other hand, parchment paper is a pain in the neck to use. The cookies contain a lot of butter so they leave an oily circle on the Silpat that really sticks to it. I had a dried cherry stick to it like glue once.I think that a nonstick cookie sheet is easier to clean than a big floppy thing like the Silpat. Since the Silpat does not produce better baked goods, I don't see the advantage over the nonstick cookie sheet.
 a must-have March 16, 2004

This is an excellent item to have about the kitchen. I only suggest two things. First, I would purchase two: one for savory items and one for sweet, as certain strong odors and oils tend to linger. Second, do not use soap on these, a good wipe with warm water and a gentle cloth will suffice.

As advertised, these baking sheets keep your baked goods from sticking to the pan. Even particularly brittle or sticky recipes such as almond tuiles or molasses cookies will come clean.
I initially had the same problem as a couple of other reviewers of having the sheets smoke and set off my smoke alarm, but after several cycles in the oven and dishwasher it stopped happening.
Make sure you use these sheets with the smooth side up. The woven side will stick to food. (You can tell when you have the wrong side up because the writing will be backwards.)

I gave my mom a Silpat for Christmas. She's used it many times since then and is very pleased with its performance. Her cookies bake evenly and slide right off every time. UNFORTUNATELY the Silpat sets off her smoke alarm EVERY TIME -even at 350 degrees. Mom is a frequent baker and is sure her oven is not running 130 degrees too hot! (the silpat is supposed be safe to use up to 480 degrees?) I guess for Mother's Day I will be getting her a set of ear plugs!!
whole cookies are so worthwhile January 9, 2004
nothing sticks..not at all. although, my silpat got an oily texture after i used it. i don't really mind it...at least i can eat my cookies WHOLE.
