It is easy to decorate your cakes to look totally professional. Just add some melted dark or white chocolate icing (or colored with edible gel) to an icing bag.

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. It’s much easier and I’ve had no issues at all with the butter layer breaking when I use my Silpat silicone mat. I would recommend to use it for anyone attempting croissants. Don’t use knives or sharp objects anywhere near these babies, and don’t try cutting your mat to size. Despite how durable it is, the silicone is still pretty delicate, and can easily be cut through if you’re not careful. Not all baking mats are the same. Some have no markings at all, and some are imprinted with markings that make cooking making a breeze.

Silpat® : a success story

Using parchment paper for chocolate decorations is much more difficult because it’s flimsy, and easily movable which can disturb the design. I much prefer using the Silpat silicone baking mat. 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.

Silpat has sizes for the traditional half-sheet pan (11 5/8 x 16 1/2 inches) and full sheet pan (16 1/2 x 24 1/2 inches).

Care tips and features for Silpat Baking Mats

So maybe you’re clumsy like me, and can’t figure out that puzzling cardboard contraption of death. Or maybe you’re trying to find a more cost-effective and long-lasting option to use on your sheet pans, one that you can use over and over again through a multitude of baking adventures.

Some mats are built to withstand metal, so you can use the silverware and spatulas you already have.
