After reading some reviews, I bought 2 packages just to be sure I had enough. I'm glad I did. I was making a 10-inch (deep dish) pie shell . The 2 packages together were just right. One package would probably be sufficient for an 8- inch. They were very easy to handle when placed over parchment paper & cooled off quickly.

pie weights are something I've always wondered about using, since I have previously used the "fork prick" method of baking single crust pies. The weights work wonderfully since there are no holes for the filling to run through.

I bought these for my mother. She usually uses dried beans when she makes her pie crust to keep the crust flat, but the last time she used beans some spilled down into the bottom of the oven and burned with black smoke, smelling up the house and causing me a lot of trouble to clean out of the oven for her. She is 89 years old and can't get down low to clean up messes like this so it is up to me. I do not make pies, but I knew I didn't want to go through this again so I looked for something to replace her dried bean method that wouldn't burn if she spilled them.These ceramic pie weights seemed to be perfect. So, I bought her some and she has been using these instead. She says they work good. She hasn't spilled any in the oven yet, but if she does, I will not have a big mess to clean up afterwards.
