Product overview
KitchenCraft Ceramic Baking Beans 500g Reusable Heat-Resistant Blind Baking Cores White
KitchenCraft Ceramic Baking Beans are reusable ceramic baking cores designed to make blind baking pastry easier and more consistent. The 500 g quantity provides weight across the pastry base during pre-baking, helping to hold the pastry in position and reduce common problems such as shrinking sides, rising pastry and unwanted air bubbles.
Made from durable ceramic, the baking cores conduct and distribute heat evenly while the pastry case cooks. They are particularly useful when preparing pastry shells for tarts, pies, quiches and other recipes where the pastry needs to be baked before the filling is added.

To use, line the pastry case with suitable baking paper and spread the ceramic baking beans evenly over the base before placing the pastry in the oven. The weight of the ceramic cores helps maintain the shape of the pastry while the heat-resistant material supports an even blind-baking process.
Unlike dried pulses used as disposable baking weights, these ceramic baking beans are designed for repeated use. Once cooled, they can be cleaned and stored in their reusable container ready for the next baking session. KitchenCraft specifies hand washing for care.
The contains 500 g of ceramic baking beans and is supplied in a round storage tub.
