Know before you buy
The shield features an interlocking design that allows you to expand or contract the ring to fit any pie dish between 7 and 11 inches in diameter. Simply slide the ends to the desired size and lock them into place before placing it over your crust.
You can place the shield on your pie at the beginning of the bake if you know your crust tends to brown quickly. Alternatively, you can add it halfway through the baking time once the edges have reached your desired golden color to prevent them from burning while the center finishes cooking.
Yes, the silicone construction is heat-resistant up to 500°F, making it suitable for almost any standard pie recipe.
No, the shield is designed to act as a heat buffer, protecting the delicate edges from direct heat without steaming or softening the crust. It ensures the edges bake at the same rate as the rest of the pie.
Not at all. Because it is made from flexible, non-stick silicone, it is dishwasher safe and can also be easily wiped clean with warm, soapy water.
