Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle Bakery in York was dealing with rising costs and frustration from cheap, single-use baking parchment that would often stick to their signature brownies and tear during service. They needed a more reliable and cost-effective solution for their high-volume output.
"We switched to the Matfer Bourgeat Exopap sheets six months ago, and the difference is night and day. The release is perfect every single time, and their reusability is just fantastic. Our pot wash team is happier, and our brownies have never looked better."
Robert Davies – Head Pastry Chef
By making the switch, The Copper Kettle Bakery has reduced its monthly parchment paper expenditure by over 50% and virtually eliminated product loss due to sticking.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Store the box flat in a dry, cool area to keep sheets from curling or creasing.
- Simply pull a sheet and lay it flat on your baking tray—no need for extra grease.
- The 600 x 400mm size is designed for standard commercial trays, but can be easily cut with scissors for smaller tins.
- Ensure the tray surface is clean and dry before laying the paper down for best results.
Keeping It Going
- After baking, allow the sheet to cool completely before handling.
- To clean, simply wipe away crumbs or residue with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid soap or harsh scrubbing, as this can damage the silicone coating.
- Allow the sheet to air dry fully before storing it flat for the next use.
- Keep track of uses by making a small pencil mark in the corner, and remember to flip it over to use the other side!
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use this Matfer Bourgeat CX520 baking paper for freezing as well as baking?
A: Absolutely. It's designed to work perfectly in temperatures as low as -40°C, making it ideal for interleaving items before freezing to prevent them from sticking together.
Q: Is the paper safe for direct contact with food?
A: Yes, it is manufactured to food-grade standards and is completely safe for all professional food preparation and baking applications.
Q: What does the '41 g/m²' specification mean?
A: This refers to the weight and thickness of the paper (grams per square metre). 41 g/m² is a sturdy, professional weight that resists tearing and holds up to repeated use.
Q: How should I clean the sheets to reuse them?
A: For best results, simply wipe the cooled sheet with a damp cloth. Avoid using detergents or abrasive sponges as this can degrade the silicone coating over time.
Q: What's the main difference between this and standard greaseproof paper?
A: Greaseproof paper just resists grease, but things can still stick. This Exopap has a dual-sided silicone coating, making it truly non-stick and highly reusable.
Q: Can I cut these non-stick oven liner sheets to fit smaller cake tins?
A: Yes, they are easily cut with scissors or a craft knife, allowing you to create custom-sized liners for any tin or tray you have.
Q: Will strong flavours like garlic or fish transfer between bakes?
A: While the surface is non-porous, we recommend dedicating separate sheets for pungent savoury dishes and sweet baked goods to guarantee no flavour transfer.
Q: Is it recyclable?
A: Due to the silicone coating, it is generally not recyclable through standard household collections. However, its high reusability significantly reduces overall waste compared to single-use papers.

This is a tool designed for the relentless pace of a commercial environment, delivering predictable, flawless results that protect your profit margins and your reputation.

When we say a sheet is reusable '4 to 5 times per side', what does that really mean for your kitchen? Think of the silicone coating like the seasoning on a cast-iron pan. It's incredibly tough, but its lifespan depends on what you cook. For light, clean bakes like shortbread or meringues at a lower temperature, you'll easily get 5, maybe even more, uses per side. For messier, sugary items or roasts at the full 220°C, the surface works harder, so you might get 3-4 top-quality uses. Either way, you're getting a minimum of 6-8 uses per sheet in total, which massively outperforms standard paper that's destined for the bin after just one bake.
Who Should Buy This?
- Artisan Bakeries: For producing consistent, perfectly-baked sourdough, pastries, and cakes without sticking or damaging delicate crusts.
- High-Volume Caterers: To streamline large-scale food prep, protect expensive sheet pans, and ensure quick turnaround between jobs.
- Pâtisseries & Dessert Shops: Essential for delicate work like macarons, meringues, and chocolate decorations where a flawless non-stick surface is critical.
- Hotels & Restaurants: For a multipurpose liner in the main kitchen, from roasting vegetables to baking viennoiserie for the breakfast service.
