Imported from the USA, they offer a reliable baking solution. - Ideal for Indian Home Bakers — These pie weights are perfect for home bakers in India looking to achieve professional results. They are ideal for anyone who loves making pies, tarts, quiches, or other pastry-based dishes. If you find your crusts shrinking or puffing up during blind baking, these weights are your solution. They are particularly useful for recipes requiring a pre-baked crust. However, if you only bake pies very infrequently or prefer disposable baking aids, these might be an unnecessary investment. For those who bake often, they offer long-term value and consistent performance. ## How to use 1. Line your raw pie or tart crust with a piece of parchment paper, ensuring it covers the bottom and sides completely to prevent the weights from touching the dough directly. — Prepare Your Crust 2. Carefully spread the ceramic pie weights evenly across the parchment-lined crust. Ensure they cover the entire base and reach up the sides to provide uniform pressure and support. — Add and Distribute Weights 3. Place the crust in a preheated oven according to your recipe's instructions for blind baking. Bake until the crust is set and lightly golden. The weights will prevent it from puffing or slumping. — Blind Bake 4. Once blind baked, carefully remove the hot parchment paper with the weights. Allow the crust to cool completely before removing any remaining stray weights. Clean and store for future use. — Remove and Cool ## Product details | Field | Value | |---|---| | Primary Material | Natural Ceramic Stoneware | | Food Safe | Yes | | Serving Size | N/A (Baking Tool) | | Cost per use | 270 weights in 2 sets: {{ccc_price_per_unit:270:weight}} | | Shelf life after opening | Indefinite (with proper care) | | Reapplication math | Reusable for hundreds of bakes | | Contraindications | Avoid dropping; handle with care to prevent breakage. | | Allergens / common irritants | None | | Brand | Mrs. Anderson's Baking | | Material | Ceramic Stoneware | | Color | White | | Count | 270 Pie Weights | | Weight | 16 ounces (approx. 454 grams) | | Dimensions | Container: 5.13" L x 3.12" W x 1.12" H (13.06 cm x 7.92 cm x 2.84 cm) | | Heat Safe | Up to 480°F (249°C) | | Country of Origin | USA | ## Frequently asked questions ### How do I use Mrs. Anderson's Baking Ceramic Pie Crust Weights?
