(Food-Beverage-News.Com, March 02, 2014 ) Portland, Oregon -- The commercial cooking industry has been cooking at higher standard than individual households for years, because of their wider range of accessories. However, the new Silicone Baking Mat is leveling the playing field, providing a healthy, time-efficient, and eco-friendly solution to home chefs.
Portland, Oregon, February 15th, 2014-Family cooks are just now discovering multiple health risks associated with traditional cooking, thanks to the prevalence of cooking shows, Internet cooking articles, and word of mouth advice. The Safer Baker Company's new release, the Nonstick Silicone Baking Mat, is one of the most innovative "safe cooking" products on the market-one typically dominated by various health risks like toxic baking accessories.
The Nonstick Silicone Baking Mat is made as a replacement product for baking pans, cookie sheets, aluminum foil, and other metal bases. The design of the Safer Bakers mat is of fiberglass mesh infused with the silicone. This is an eco-friendly design and one that does not require any extra moisture to cook evenly. This is a contrast to nonstick pans made with chemicals like Teflon, which have been linked to an increased risk of thyroid disease, high cholesterol, and male infertility.
The Nonstick Silicone Baking Mat is also free of carcinogenic dioxins, which are unfortunately in high concentration in certain baking cup liners, made from aluminum. The futuristic design of the Safer Baker mat allows chefs to cover the aluminum tray with the mat therefore not allowing the aluminum to touch the food, making it safer to eat. It also eliminates excessive cleanup time, since dry pans either require heavy scrubbing or long soaking time to thoroughly clean.
With a silicone baking mat, only a light wipe with a dash of soap and water is required to clean the surface. The Baking Mat is made with eco-friendly materials approved by the FDA and actually surpass the minimum requirements. It can be stored anywhere, with any extreme cooking temperature, from freezers to ovens.
Co-Founder of The Safer Baker, Liz Foster, comments that superior construction in the professional establishment has always been the standard, and only recently have companies listened to ensure interest for safe cooking accessories are designed for the household. "Years ago, baking mats were more commonly utilized in professional kitchens and by world renowned chefs. With the popularity of cooking shows, and in revealing the secrets of great chefs, households now want these products. They want cooking to be just as fun for then as it is for the Jamie Olivers and Gordon Ramseys of the world. Part of that fun is simplifying the process-getting rid of the messy cleanup and usual high quality materials."
The Safer Baker Company recently made waves in the media by releasing its Silicone Baking Mat for 70 percent off the retail price, for a four day period. The sale, made possible through an online only coupon code, ended yesterday and the company reported record sales for the month of February. Though the sale has ended, The Safer Baker continues to offer a lower than standard price for this high-quality product, and continues to honor their lifetime warranty policy. No requests for a refund or exchange have ever been requested, which the company credits to the high performance of the baking mat, designed to withstand years of wear and thousands of uses.
Cooking may well become fun and safe again, if cooking and baking accessories continue to revolutionize the way consumers cook.
