My First Rendezvous

A few weeks ago, I walked up to a couple of friends of mine at church. One told me we were going to a party the next night. I asked, “You’re going to a party tomorrow night?” She smiled. “WE’RE going to a party. I get points for taking you.” So began my introduction to Demarle at home.

The next night, I discovered this uniquely designed silicone-spun glass product that bakeries and commercial enterprises around the world have been using for decades, but has only recently been introduced to the US consumer market. I don’t spend a lot of time in the kitchen, so I did not expect to see anything that would tempt me. I could not have been more mistaken. I have been concerned about the harmful effects of chemicals introduced into my food by my habitually convenient meal preparation:
  • Common nonstick cooking surfaces leach into food at cooking temperatures
  • Leftovers apportioned in plastic containers and reheated in the microwave become contaminated with BPA’s
  • Recent warnings about microwave popcorn packaging
Demarle’s completely nonstick (no oil or spray), Kosher-certified (inert) flexipans and Silpat pads solved all of my concerns in one fell swoop, with a life-time guarantee to boot. I was hooked! Everyone needs to hear about this product (whether they buy it or not)!

Last night, I hosted my first Demarle rendezvous (French company’s term for ‘party’), which was also my business launch into direct sales of Demarle at home.

Individual turkey meatloaf portions and seasoned, roasted veggies. YUM!

These Parmesan crisps are made by baking a tbs of shredded Parmesan on a SILPAT pad for just a few minutes (don’t try this at home without one). It makes a crisp salty snack or crunchy salad topping when crumbled:

Check these products out at Demarle’s website. Better yet, host a party so you can get started with some free stuff! Contact me at kristiathome@gmail.com or leave a comment for more info.
