Using far parchment paper for my cakes and breads, I wanted to test with a silicone mat. I did not want to buy "first prize" because I know that in the silicone, there are several manufacturing quality (as in almost all the way), so I opted for this model.
The cooking is just as good as with parchment paper, no complaints. It has a nice little thickness shows a good manufacturing quality. The only gripe I could find him is his size. Knead a dough and spread of 1.5 kilos of bread, one "beyond" a little around. I think if it measured 40x40 that would be ideal. So, I kneaded the work plan and then deposits the bread dough on the carpet.
Another positive thing, I felt no any smell after cooking on the carpet or on itself, nor in my bread. No odor or taste so parasite.
Do not hesitate if you are interested in this kind of product, you will no be disappointed (e).
Sincerely.
