Despite being in London for three years, it was only recently that I finally stumbled across an alternative for a special type of baking parchment that I prefer to use back in Australia. Unlike ordinary baking parchment, both of the Glad Bake, or Multix Bake brands offer a unique silicone coating that works much better than ordinary “greaseproof” ones that always somehow end up sticking to whatever you end up using it for.

Both Multix and Glad don’t seem to be available in the UK, so your best bet is either the American imported “If you care” brand (available at Earth Natural, 200 Kentish Town Road for £3.20 for 5m), or the Lakeland brand for £4.99 (25m) or £6.99 (45m).
