I bought this for rolling out paper clay/polymer clay. I work small so this is a great size and the little guides are helpful too. The only thing I worry about is if anything nicks it it won't really be usable anymore for my purposes but it seems tough so as long as I'm careful I don't think that will happen. Clean-up has been a breeze and sticking has not been an issue for me with the help of a little flour or cornstarch.

This and its sister rolling pin, the 20 inch one, are the only ones I ever use. They are very easy to use and always comes off breads, cookies, etc. clean as a whistle. A Perfect pairing with a marble pastry board too. This is actually the second one I've bought because I use it so often and its such a great price too.
This rolling pin rolled my fondant very well! I am a total fondant newbie. I'll admit that I haven't worked with fondant on more than 2 or 3 occasions. When I was first getting started with fondant, I was stocking up on all of the supplies I would need. One of the things I purchased was this rolling pin. I don't make very large cakes, so I bought the smaller rolling pin. When it arrived, it was a litter smaller than I had thought it was be but I knew that I could still make it work.
The rolling pin is made of a silicon type material, so it does not stick to the fondant like a wooden rolling pin would. It also comes with a couple rubber stoppers to measure how thick of fondant you're rolling out. When I first started rolling out the fondant, I would use a lot of crisco to prevent it from sticking to the table. This made the fondant very easy to work with and pliable when using the rolling pin. One other downside to the rolling pin is that it does not have any handles. You have to manually push it around when you're rolling out the fondant which might not work for some people.
The rolling pin washes off very well, and does not accumulate residue inside of the plastic. My main concern with a silicon type rolling pin was if it was going to start accumulating bacteria inside of the pores, but I'm not worried about that with this rolling pin!
I purchased 5 of these as an Amazon special “add-on” price. They were just what I needed for a class I was teaching on sugar figure sculpting. I would have bought more but there was a limit. It’s been about 2 months & Now I see they r the same price but doesn’t require the add on anymore. Will definitely get a few more for future classes!
I got this initially for rolling smaller amounts of dumplings, as I just wanted something that would do the job at an affordable price. It’s perfect!! For the price, you simply cant go wrong at just three dollars. It’s the perfect weight, and cleans very easily.
