Why Western Made Peels are better and cost less


We make them in California from Cali- fornia sugar pine or white cedar. There is no long distance freight charges to add either to the raw material or


finished product. Any baker who has used our peels will tell you that they outlast the Eastern peels every time, and they are really self-sharpeners. Even if they cost you more, you would still be ahead by using them. But they cost less. Write for price list NOW!
