Eco Friendly Cupcake-Muffin Liners

Recently, I purchased unbleached cupcake-muffin liners made by If You Care as part of my efforts to turn the kitchen into an eco-friendly kitchen.

I’ve read mixed reviews about this brand. Some say these liners falls off the cupcakes or muffins and don’t like that it does; others prefer it falls away as opposed to struggling with peeling the paper from it. My understanding from reading about this product is that it is not meant to stick.

My plan is to use these liners in a bit of a novel way and make raw cupcakes and muffins using a dehydrator. The outcome has yet to be determined. Stay tuned.

These liners, as well as other unbleached paper products, are beige or brown in color in comparison to similar products bleached with chlorine in order to make the paper fibers look white and brighter.

The use of chlorine contributes to the contamination of our water, soil and food supply, and this is one of the key reasons why I have chosen to purchase unbleached products.

On the side of the box in which these liners are packaged list benefits of using this product, here are some:

• * Will not affect the taste of the food in it
• * Reduces the amount of chlorine in our environment
• * Landfill safe
• * Non-toxic when incinerated
• * Environmentally safe
