Know before you buy
The micro-perforations allow moisture to escape during the baking process, which prevents the dough from steaming in its own heat. This ensures your crust achieves a consistently crisp, golden-brown texture throughout.
While the stainless steel is high-quality, it is best practice to lightly grease the interior of the ring before lining it with dough. This ensures a clean release, especially when working with delicate shortcrust or puff pastry.
Yes, these rings are designed to withstand extreme temperature changes. They are perfectly safe for use in both the freezer and blast chiller, making them ideal for recipes that require chilling the dough before baking.
Yes, the rings are designed with a degree of flexibility that allows you to gently pull the sides outward once the tart has cooled. This makes it much easier to release your pastry without damaging the fluted edges.
These rings are oven-safe up to 220°C (428°F). They are suitable for most standard baking applications, including high-heat pastry techniques.
These rings are dishwasher safe, which makes cleanup straightforward. However, to maintain the finish of the 18/10 stainless steel over time, hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent is also a great option.
