This "fondant work mat" is really just a giant silpat. Anyone who has a silpat is familiar with the spongy grids inside the mat. This mat has those grids also, and therefore it leaves a grid pattern on the mat side of any fondant you roll. I'm mystified why this is being sold and marketed as a fondant work mat, when Ateco already sells the much better dark blue fondant work mat that is thin and has a solid surface.

This mat excels in size and quality. It has metric and imperial measurements along its edges for easier sizing. In general, it does not need to be greased before rolling out fondant, but that does depend on the stickiness/moistness of the fondant itself. Do not use Exacto-style razor blade knives on silicone mats. Although they may not cut through the first time you use them, they do easily cut through silicone/fiberglass mats. To clean this mat, I usually use a hard surface cleaner plus paper towels on both sides. It is too big to fit in my sink effectively, and I have had other, smaller silicone mats get singed by contact with dishwasher heating elements in the past.

Works great. Seems like it was well made and of good quality. Doesn't move when I'm rolling and trying to work with the fondant. Nice and BIG!
The only thing I don't love is that it is textured rather than smooth, so only the side I had the roller on is smooth and not the side that was on the mat. I wish I had known that. I would've purchased the silicone Ateco work mat that is all blue from another site for the same price and size, although I have noticed that one tends to move around a little while you're rolling-- they both have their pros and cons I guess.
I just really could've used the option of laying my fondant on directly from the mat rather than having to drape it onto my rolling pin. Now I can't decide if I should get a longer rolling pin to do that or to just buy the cheaper, smaller wilton mat.

Love it
I love this mat. I'd wanted it for years but was to cheap to buy it - finally just bit the bullet and did it and wish I would have years ago.

Ateco Mat
This is a great mat. I use it for rolling out dough, and fondant. It is very large in size but I like that as it allows for a enough room for rolling out for large cakes. Read more
