This ceramic rolling pin can be put in the freezer - making it ideal for buttery pastries.
 
 
 
This gorgeous item is as functional as it is beautiful. A good weight, distributed evenly, gives good handling of the dough, and the non-absorbent, glazed surface is hygienic by nature. The star quality of this rolling pin is that it can be placed in the freezer ahead of use, and retains temperature well, meaning you have an ice cold rolling pin for high butter content pastry even on warmer days. 
 
 
 
All that said - I know we sell quite a lot of these to people with no designs on making homemade puff pastry, who simply find them irresistibly beautiful objects! Decorated by hand by the highly skilled pattern designers in the Ceramika Artystyczna pottery workshops, these are one of the most eyecatching items we stock.
