How do I clean and store the ceramic pie weights?

Hand wash the weights in warm water without soap and allow them to air dry completely before storing. They come with a reusable container to keep them neatly organized between uses, preventing scattering.

What is the total weight of the ceramic pie weights?

Can I use these pie weights for store-bought pie crusts?

Why choose this product

Achieve Professional Pie Crusts Consistently

Mrs. Anderson's Baking Ceramic Pie Weights are engineered to provide superior blind baking results. Unlike generic baking weights or improvised methods, these ceramic beads ensure even heat distribution across the entire crust. This prevents common issues like shrinking edges, puffing centers, or uneven browning, which can ruin the presentation and texture of your pies and tarts. The natural stoneware material is food-safe, durable, and reusable, offering a long-term solution for bakers seeking consistent, professional-quality crusts for everything from holiday desserts to everyday baking.

Ideal For Indian Home Bakers

These ceramic pie weights are perfect for Indian home bakers who want to replicate international dessert standards. While local alternatives might exist, they often lack the precise heat distribution and durability of quality ceramic stoneware. Use them for everything from classic apple pie to delicate fruit tarts. If you have sensitive ovens or find local weights don't heat evenly, these are a worthwhile upgrade. They are safe for use in standard Indian OTG ovens up to 480°F (249°C). For best results, ensure even coverage and proper cooling before removal.

How to use

Line your raw pie or tart crust with parchment paper, ensuring it covers the base and sides. This prevents the weights from sticking to the dough. — Prepare Crust and Parchment
Spread the ceramic pie weights evenly across the parchment-lined crust in a single layer. Ensure good coverage, especially around the edges, to prevent shrinkage. — Place Ceramic Weights
Bake the crust in your preheated oven at the temperature specified by your recipe until lightly golden. The weights will hold the crust in place. — Blind Bake Crust
Carefully remove the pie weights once the crust is baked. Allow the weights to cool completely before handling, then hand wash and air dry for storage. — Cool and Remove Weights
