 Don't waste your money...Feb 27, 2009
By K. Dennis
1. This mat is VERY flimsy barely thicker than a plastic tablecloth (NOT an exaggeration) so it doesn't roll up well which makes it hard to store, box was damaged and useless after I got it. If you fold it up it creases permanently and plainly makes it useless, unless you WANT lines in your fondant or dough.
2. It is slimy after a couple uses, does not clean well. It SLIDES uncontrollably - so you either have to weigh it down with other items which results in making the already small rolling surface even smaller. I guess you could have someone sit and hold it down for you, roll with one hand or tape it down to the counter/table etc. all of which are ridiculous!
3. There is a large silicone mat available on this site that clings beautifully (doesn't budge, needs to be peeled off using both hands!) to the table/counter, requires almost zero grease/flour, gets squeaky clean w/o much effort, is heavy/large/sturdy enough to roll up and secure with an elastic band and is heat resistant to boot!!! Although you'd need a pretty large pan & oven to use it for that purpose! But it's so non stick that cut out cookies slide right off onto a regular half sheet pan.
4. Why am I talking about cookies/dough? Because the item I'm describing is an excellent multi-tasker - fondant, cookie dough, pie crust anything that requires nonstick rolling.
5. I am purposely not naming the item I'm raving about as I don't want to be accused of "planting" this review on behalf of another company. If you're interested I DO want to state that this is not a s/i/lp/a/t, if that's what you were thinking ;)
6. Search silicone rolling mat (its square w/ similar markings to the subpar Wilton) and I'm sure you'll find it. Plus it's only a couple dollars more - since I threw the Wilton one away it would've been a real bargain had I gotten it first!
7. Sorry this is so long - just wanted to stress that you will be much happier with another choice! IMO;)

It's crap! A worthless waste of money!Apr 18, 2009
By Mom of 6 good kids
I agree with the other reviewer who gave it a one star on all counts. In fact it deserves zero stars!
As I roll out the fondant the mat slides all over the place and curls up on me so I can't even see what I'm doing. It is very easy to get creases in and impossible to get them out, so when you roll the fondant it has big creases in it. There is no storage container for it so it gets dirty easily and doesn't clean up well.
It's a good idea but what a shamefully cheep product by Wilton. There are other mats that do the same thing but stick to the counter and come in a storage container. I bought one by Epicura, a non-slip pastry mat. It's almost identical to the Wilton one but a tad smaller and way better quality. It was also less expensive.

 Why all the bad reviews?Nov 15, 2010
By Rebecca S. Warfel

I was really hesitant to buy this mat with all of the bad reviews but I needed a mat for my fondant class and I had a coupon so I only paid half price. Here is what I have found.
It came out of the box suprisingly flat with some curve to it so I just rolled it in the opposite direction which worked great because when I took it out a few days later, it was nearly perfectly flat.
It is thin. This isn't really an issue. Don't press too hard if you have to do cut outs because it will leave indents. I can see how a crease in the matt could cause issues where if you rolled out fondant that it would come out with lines in it. So you do have to treat it carefully.
It comes clean just fine. I don't understand the hard to clean comments. You have to wipe it down. Its not really a dishwasher or put in the sink type of item.
It's slippery. I do hate that it slides around when I try to use it. If you think ahead just put a wet towel under it so that it doesn't move (not a big deal and it solves the problem).
Not perfect but not as horrible as I had imageined from the other reviews.
I LOVE that it puts out the measurements for your fondant circles. It shows you what your circle size needs to be for the cake your covering. This is also helpful for cutting ribbon and shapes.

 CRAP CRAP CRAP!Jan 17, 2010
By georgi

This worked great for maybe three cakes, then it sucked. Every time I used the lines to cut fondant lines(I even used the Wilton PLASTIC rotary cutter thingy)it left dents/lines in the mat which, in turn, left lines/dents in the fondant, not good. maybe should just be called the roll mat, because roll AND cut, not so much.Not to mention it is flimsy as all get out and edges roll up. I still needed something with a grid for my fondant and I just can't work the $ of a silicone one right now so I went to my local fabric store and bought a 36" piece of vinyl(the thickest they had), put that over the top of the Wilton crapper and I actually have an ok workspace. Defiantly would not by another Wilton mat though.

Pretty Good Product!Jun 09, 2011
By HoustonGirl
I have had a positive experience with the Roll & Cut Mat. That said, I have used it primarily to roll and measure my fondant. Folks who are annoyed at the fondant sticking to the mat need to get shortening (Crisco works great) and grease the mat prior to using. If you are having trouble cleaning the mat, use Dawn brand dish soap--it's the only thing I use to clean my Wilton products because it leaves a squeaky clean, non-greasy feel. When cutting on this mat, I used wax paper between the fondant and mat and could still see the grid lines and circles through. While the mat does have a tendency to roll at the corners, once it is weighted down for about an hour, it no longer curls in. So I would recommend putting something on all corners for at least an hour before using it. Finally, I have read reviews about peoples' mats sliding around because there is no gripping material on the mat's underside. I recommend spraying your countertop with water, wiping most of it away, and then setting the mat on top of the residual water before it evaporates. Problems solved! Not a bad mat for ten bucks! :-)
