It's always nice to have tools in your kitchen that make your life easier, and that's what Lekue's bakeware is all about. Their innovative baking tools are ones that are designed to make the baking process go smoothly. Both Lekue's Silicone Baking Mat and Decopen decorating pen are tools that help make perfect cookies and other baked goods that are beautifully decorated. From mixing together a quick batch of cookies to decorating a cake, these tools make it easy to produce perfect results each time.
Silicone Baking Mat
The Lekue Silicone Baking Mat is a fiberglass mat covered by liquid platinum silicone, ideal to use in the oven and as a work surface. The structure of the mat evenly distributes heat, so everything will bake evenly and in a shorter time. If you're making cookies for example, place the baking mat on a cookie sheet, drop the cookies onto the mat, and bake. The cookies will come out of the oven perfectly browned on the outside, and you don't have to worry about flipping the pan or the cookies being baked unevenly. Plus, it's much easier to clean than a bulky pan, so it will cut down on time spent on dishes.
Another great thing about the Silicone Baking Mat is its non-stick properties. If you're using it in the oven, whatever you're baking will slide right off without any trouble. Plus, it's great to use as a work surface on your counter if you're rolling out pie crust or cookies, or kneading dough. It's especially great for kneading because your dough won't stick!
Decopen
The Decopen decorating tool is the perfect solution to decorating and adding flavor to sweet and savory dishes. Instead of struggling with a messy pastry bag, the Decopen makes it easy to pour ingredients in the tool and pipe them out in one steady stream. It includes four nozzles, so it fits different designs and widths for any job. It's great for piping frosting or icing - simply pour the icing in the Decopen, close the top, and squeeze it out to create designs. The wide nozzle even allows you to completely frost a cake or cookies.
The Decopen can be used on baked goods and also on savory recipes. It's great for drizzling dressing to create a gorgeous salad, or squeeze a design onto a plate of any main dish for garnish. Not only does it add design to any dish, but flavor as well!
