The slice and bake cookie helper creates more structured and precise way of making slice and bake cookies.

Convenient Measurements
Measurement markings on the side of the mat, allow for easy sizing and measurement of the log of dough. Perfectly match the recipe every time.

The Perfect Cut, Every Time
Embedded quarter inch markings mean that as the dough chills, it retains convenient quarter and half inch demarcations for accurate measurements every time.
Designing and developing remotely meant getting scrappy; stapling together prototypes and creating squish molds on the balcony.
“The OXO Slice and Bake Cookie Helper, which helps you slice roll cookies evenly and store dough, isn’t out yet, but we’ll be ordering one and testing it as soon as it is.”
