Baking safety notes for cookies

Be careful of sharp edges when handling cookie cutters.

Burns and scalding

When heating food on in the oven, be aware of the danger of burns or scalds, which can be caused by contact with hot foods or hot pans or utensils.

Safety tips

Always use oven mitts when removing baking dishes or trays from ovens or microwaves.

Never use a damp tea towel to remove trays from the oven – the wet cloth will heat up much faster than a dry one and can burn your hands.

Don't wear loose-fitting clothing around open flames.

Kitchen fires

Safety tips

Don't leave cooking food unattended – and make sure you turn off all cooking appliances after using them.

Make sure you have a fire extinguisher and fire blanket in your kitchen. Never use water to put out a kitchen fire.

Don't keep flammable items such as tea towels near the stove or other hot appliances.

Never put items that aren't microwave safe in the microwave. This applies especially to items that contain metal, as they can quickly spark and cause fires.
