thx, I'll try both! Wish they could go in the dishwasher like most everything else, lol!
 
You might try getting your water really hot then using the spray attachement from your sink and spraying that area.
 
Be careful that your not wearing good clothing while cleaning. When the woven selection pieces get wet the brown color runs and stains. I ruined a shirt the last time I was cleaning carmel sauce off of my round piece. I used the kitchen brush with dish soap and really hot water.

Wow, I wouldn't think the wood color would run and stain! Thanks for the heads up!
 
I will need to try and clean mine again...

I have made the cherry cheese danish tons of times and it never fails that the icing drips all over and off the stone onto my round WS. (I even try to drizzle it towards the INSIDE instead of the outside so it won't do that...but someone always drips that stuff all over!)

Anyhow, now mine is DRIED on there...what a mess! Cleaning is the ONLY thing I don't like about the woven selections! I cringe whenever I am using them serving and people don't pay attention and drop stuff all over them!

That's why I want a round stone like I have from another company (bought years & years ago) that has a small lip on it. It would be perfect for the cheese danish & recipes like it. It would also be nice to have something like was available for the rectangle woven selection (patriotic) to cover them. Then the mess would be on the cloth, not the woven selection!!
