0.94LB Pie Weights for Baking - Pie Crust Weights Ceramic Baking Beans for Reusable Natural Ceramic Stoneware Homemade Kitchen Must Have Round Household Steam Oven Stone

For the dessert baker, there are going to be times when you need to pre-bake a crust, and when that happens you know that you need to weigh it down (huge, puffy crust anyone). When you need to pre-bake a crust, these weights are perfect. They are just little balls of hardened ceramic, but they are evenly shaped and weighted, and the 2 lb bag is enough to properly fill and weigh down the crust, no matter what size. If you use parchment paper, you won't even need to clean them after, but cleaning is relatively easy. Drying takes time, but a cookie sheet and sun shine work well. I have used these numerous times, and they still appear as new, clean and white. And no puffed up crust bubbles. Win win

works great. Pies shell came out perfect.

Keeps pie crust from rising. Works well and great price

Good quality beads for baking. Enough for a 9-inch pie crust. Easy to clean.

Pie weights are great for single crust filled pies. I like these ceramic weights due to the fact they can be washed, unlike using beans or rice. Good price. Items came vacuum sealed--good for shipping. Vacuum sealing prevents any possible chipping or cracking.

Already used them. Filled bottom of pie plate. Work perfectly

So far appear to be excellent. Quite a bit of ceramic dust that needed to be washed off, but their instructions suggest putting parchment paper between the crust and the weights, which would alleviate any contamination concerns.

Love the weights. Work perfectly!

They work well - I have only used them once though. Will update if there is a change to the product, but so far I am satisfied with the quality!

much smaller (average 7mm), too light. unless you buy 2 or 3 packs at once, not much use. you'd be better off getting genuine ceramic beads from somewhere else

They do the job and the where very good but will have to buy another packet less than expected due to there weight

Pasta buonissima!!

They were delivered promptly, although I didn't see them to start with - hiding in the letterbox. They are clean and heavy, and will do the job of flattening the pastry brilliantly. I have stored them in a bottle for safekeeping.
