Blind baking is the secret to a perfect pie pastry base, so savvy bakers everywhere choose quality ceramic pie weights for this essential task. Round, heavy and easy to use, Avanti present 600g of re-usable pie weights in a secure plastic tub for your storage convenience. To use, simply form your raw pastry in the base of a pie dish, cover with baking paper then pour in the required amount of ceramic balls, weighting the pastry down and preventing it from bubbling up as it cooks. The result is a perfectly flat pastry base, every time. Hand wash as necessary and dry completely before storing, ready for use at a moment's notice.
