It’s Easy to Use and Care for Brazilian Ice Products

Brazilian Ice soapstone products are incredibly durable as well as extremely resistant to staining - even red wine is easily removed by soaking it in gentle soap and water. We recommend Eco Friendly soaps although soapstone can withstand any chemicals as it is completely inert and will not react to harsh chemicals so you cannot damage it.

The softness of soapstone means that your finest crystal will not be damaged. If you see the occasional light scratch, you can simply remove it by applying oil to your tray perfect. Deeper scratches can be removed with sandpaper.

Complete use and care instructions
are provided with each of our products.

The Grilling Stone should be “cured” before its first use with grape seed, coconut or a good quality cooking oil and low heat; the oil can also be reapplied when you notice the soapstone becoming lighter in color as it does naturally through use, or if it is scratched. This application also provides the added benefit of creating a non-stick surface, making clean-up a breeze with just dish soap and water. You may also use anything to clean your Grilling Stone that you would for a non-stick pan.

Our soapstone is of excellent quality and food safe from Canadian mines. You can read more about soapstone how to use it for counter tops, fireplaces and the elegant work of Pierres Steatites at www.soapstonesupply.com

 

Soapstone, known formally as steatite, is an extremely dense metamorphic rock (rock that has been altered by pressure and heat). Soapstone has been used for millennia for cooking utensils, architectural elements, carving material and more.

The soapstone used in the products of Brazilian Ice range in age from 300 to 400 million years old. Soapstone is comprised of many minerals including talc, chlorite, dolomite, quartz, magnesium, mica, pyroxene, amphibole, serpentine, calcite, and iron oxides. Its colors can include from grey/black, green/black, grey, charcoal, black, and dark green.

Brazilian Ice products are food-safe, stain-resistant, and impenetrable by bacteria. IMPORTANT: Do not place your Brazilian Ice products in the microwave, as trace metals may cause them to arc and explode.

 
Soapstone is dense, thus extremely heavy per sq. cm.
It will last forever when proper care is taken.
