cooling racks

Wire pastry stands

Cooling racks are wire grids elevated on short legs, used in baking to let air circulate around freshly baked goods as they cool.

Without airflow underneath, steam trapped between a hot cookie sheet and a cooling cake creates sogginess.

Set the brownies on the cooling rack for ten minutes before cutting.
