I am having trouble where my macarons are sticking to the sheet with this product? Should I spray them with cooking oil first?

I never did that myself but I don't think it is a good idea. Macarons does not like grease. My macarons also stick to this sheet. Although, it is a little bit sticky but it came out nice. All you have to do is wait until it completely cool down then lift the sheet up and gently push underneath each macaron. It will still be some tini tiny bits of macaron left sticking on the sheet but it's still ok as long as your macarons still hold the shape. Anyhow, don't spay your sheet with the cooking oil or any kind of grease otherwise your macarons might not raise properly.

Did you let them cool on the mat for an hour? If I try to remove them too soon they will break, but letting them cool on the mat on a rack for an hour, they peel right off.

What were you cooking? I have never had anything stick to mine, I can literally burn a piece of cheese to my frying pan and it will slide rite off.... I do use olive oil in a Misto oil sprayer http://www.amazon.com/Misto-Brushed-Aluminum-Olive-Sprayer/dp/B00004SPZV/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1388543986&sr=8-2&keywords=misto with olive oil in it... These pans do not need high heat, I have noticed low is like medium in other pans and a little under medium is like high, they are very conductive, try lowering your heat and don't put food on a cold pan.

Were you using non-stick spray on the pan? This left a hard sticky residue on my ceramic non-stick pans, so could leave it on these.

I always cook with oil to minimize sticking. I soak it overnight in water so it's really easy to clean the next day. Best of luck

I usually wash them with warm water and regular dish soap, I let them dry on the counter. Better if you use them with round parchment paper (you can cut it previously) so It doesn´t get sticky/oily when you cook.

I always use Pam when I bake. I don't like how oil and butter darken and stain the pans over time. I have had no problem with sticking. When the cake is finished, I can wipe the crumbs out with a paper towel, even.

I'm not sure why your having this problem, but I can tell you how I use mine and maybe that will help.. I let the butter soften a little and smoosh it down good into the cup with a spoon or spatula. I making sure there are no air pockets.. I keep my butter keeper in a spot away from toaster, oven, coffee pot, etc so it wont get too warm. Also before each refill I wash it good so the new butter I put in has a non greasy surface to stick too... I love mine but wish it was a little bigger... lol Hope this helps...

I have not had that problem. I guess I might try spraying it with Pam or other cooking spray. Good Luck!

I always spray pans with cooking oil and then dust with flour before baking. Maybe this would assist.

Mine had glue residue that came off the first time I used it with heat, and it did so with a loud pop. Be careful. I would try low heat first.Putting the label on there was a terrible idea. Very nice pan, really bad decision to affix a sticky label to a nonstick surface.

Same problem. I sprayed mine also and they still came out messed up. I won't use it nowl. I bought a nice metal pan and have no problems with it.

I agree with the answer Lohmeyer posted. For cakes I would butter or spray the pans with pam or some oil spray before putting the batter in.

I always spray them with Pam before using them and they're fine. The only trouble I ever have is if I forget or I use the frying pan for an omelette--eggs always seem to stick no matter what. Otherwise, we really like the set.

In my experience, I have have to use a non-stick cooking spray. Butter has not worked well.

I've only used non-stick spray on mine. With no sticking issues at all. I make bagels/cake like items though, not donuts. Maybe the batter makes a difference?

I spray my pans with Pam or Crisco Bakery Spray and they do not stick. You can also try parchment paper to line the pan, I never have but my friends say it works. Make sure your oven is preheated before baking - that does make a difference.

Wow, I'm far from a cooking expert. Only thing I'll suggest is if you're not already using a cooking spray (i.e. PAM,Crisco or Smart Balance) try that with just a 10 second reduction on time you're MWaving them.
