De Buyer Non-Stick Silicone Baking Mat

The De Buyer silicone baking mat is just like the baking paper you already know, but non-stick and reusable. That’s right! You’ll be using it constantly: it’s a truly multifunctional mat on both of its surfaces—smooth or perforated. You can use it as a base for baking your pastry creations, among many other things.

Besides being a baking paper replacement, its excellent non-stick properties make it perfect as a surface to cool down cookies in the fridge before baking, to freeze or deep-freeze truffles, or as a work mat for fondant, sugar paste, panellets or marzipan figurines. These non-stick sheets, also known as silpats, are so revolutionary that they’ll become an essential part of your kitchen, letting you ditch disposable baking paper for good.

Its high-quality silicone coating gives it outstanding resistance to both heat and cold. It can handle temperatures from -40°C to 250°C. It’s a true all-terrain mat! Like all De Buyer products, these mats are made for intensive use, making them incredibly durable.

• The smooth mat, perfectly flat without any seams or texture, will guarantee flawless results for your bakes. It’s very easy to clean and a great replacement for disposable parchment paper.
• The perforated mat, ideal for use with the De Buyer perforated baking tray, allows hot air to quickly reach the dough, ensuring fast, even baking and a crispy finish. It’s perfect for achieving crispy crusts on breads, galettes, and cookies, among others.
• The perforated choux pastry mat is the perfect template for piping éclairs, chouquettes, profiteroles, or the base of your best Paris-Brest. Ideal for use with the De Buyer perforated baking tray, this dual-sided ventilated mat allows hot air to reach the dough quickly, for perfect baking and a crisp result. The markings are the perfect guide for 12 cm éclairs or choux bases of 3, 6, and 8 cm.
