CARE, USE, AND HOW TO CLEAN GLASS BAKEWARE SAFELY

We want to be sure to give you all of the information you need not only to get the most out of your favorite products but also to do it entirely safely while preserving the life and integrity of the material. That’s why we’ve outlined detailed instructions on care, use, and how to clean glass bakeware and other products safely, including microwave, oven, freezer, and dishwasher considerations.

CAUTION

Failure to follow these instructions and warnings may cause (a) the product to suddenly fracture into many small pieces; (b) spot overheating of the dish or the handle which could result in property damage or serious personal injury from cuts or burns. Scratches from certain cleaning materials and utensils, impact damage or other misuse can weaken glassware causing unexpected breakage immediately or at a later date when exposed to sudden or severe temperature changes.

Measuring Cups/Batter Bowls Care & Use

  • MICROWAVE USE. Position glass measuring cup or batter bowl in the center of the microwave.  Do not allow the glass to come into contact with the interior sides of the microwave which could cause localized overheating of the glass or handle.  Do not heat empty or nearly empty measuring cup or batter bowl in microwave.  Do not overheat oil, butter or other fats in microwave as they quickly reach the desired temperature.  Heat only for the recommended time for your microwave (refer to your microwave owner’s manual.)  This product is not intended for camping, industrial or commercial use.
  • AVOID MICROWAVE MISUSE. Do not heat empty or nearly empty dish in microwave.  Do not overheat oil, butter or other fats in microwave as they quickly reach the desired temperature.  Heat only for the recommended time for your microwave (refer to your microwave owner’s manual.)  This product is not intended for camping, industrial or commercial use. Do not allow dish to come into contact with interior sides of oven or microwave which could cause localized overheating of dish or handle. Follow all warnings and instructions in your microwave owner’s manual.
  • AVOID SUDDEN OR SEVERE TEMPERATURE CHANGES. Do not add liquid to a hot measuring cup or batter bowl. Handle hot measuring cups or batter bowls with a dry cloth or potholder. Never place hot measuring cup or batter bowl on wet or cold surfaces.

Prior to cooking foods that may release liquid, add liquid to the dish making sure it covers the bottom of the dish. Only use in ovens properly sized to allow clearance from side walls and door. Only use in microwaves properly sized with working turn-table, or turn manually at regular intervals during cooking.
