10 Bakewell Microwave Bags for Steaming 25 x 30cm
Product number: 26282
Micro-perforated on one side, Bakewell’s Pack of 10 Microwave Cooking Bags is just what you need for steaming fish or vegetables in your microwave oven – and they can even help save up to 10% of cooking time on an already fast way of cooking. There’s room inside each cook-in bag for a generous portion of vegetables, or a few fillets of fish, or you can steam a whole meal inside one of these bags – especially good news for speedy production of late night suppers.
We all know that steaming is a super-healthy way to cook, but doing it on the hob feels like a lot of work – and can result in loads of condensation fogging up your windows – so why not make the most of your microwave and benefit from the speed of this clever cooking method at the same time?
Simple to use
Place a Microwave Steaming Bag onto a microwaveable plate or dish – each one helpfully tells you which side is ‘up’ – pop the ingredients of your meal inside with approximately a teaspoonful of water and seal the bag with one of the ties included in the pack, then microwave as per your food’s cooking instructions, as usual.
Because the bags are only perforated on one side, they’re ideal if you want to rub flavourings into the ingredients before you cook, as nothing can leak out the bottom. Once they’ve had time to absorb the flavours, the bag can go straight from your fridge to the microwave to cook. All the flavours of your food will be held inside the bag and splashes and spatters can’t mess up the inside of your microwave oven – a brilliant (and fast) method of cooking with minimal clean-up required… What more can you ask?
When the timer pings, give it half a minute or two to let the steam cool a fraction before you open the bag – your deliciously healthy, steamed dish should be ready to serve and enjoy.
Suitable for reheating
Of course, we all love our microwaves for reheating leftovers, and these clever bags can help with that too. Just pop a bowlful of food inside the bag – with the perforations at the top, of course – seal it with a tie and heat for the usual time.
Bakewell have included a range of helpful timing tips on the back of the pack (based on an 850W microwave) and their website and social media pages offer recipe inspiration too.
100% recyclable PET – naturally BPA free.
Includes 10 non-wired ties, suitable for use in microwave ovens.
Bakewell Oven Bags for Roasting also available in three sizes – Medium, Large, Extra Large. Made in the UK.

I am incredibly disappointed with this product. I understand you have changed to be eco friendly, but this new bag with the ridiculous tie does not fit the bill. The previous steam bags were easy to seal properly and items could be laid flat in microwave , Previously there was the offer of large or medium, this is just one size..
Thank you for your review. We're sorry the bags haven't worked well for you. Our store colleagues will be happy to put things right for you. Please do take along your receipt or bank/card statement.
As a regular user of Lakesland’s previously excellent Microbags’ I was expecting great things from their newer product, what i didnt expect was that Lakeland would allow such a terrible product to replace a previously Fabulous Time Saving Product. These are completely rubbish, even the tiewraps which are supplied are useless. I don’t usually write on reviews but feel it should be brought to Lakeland’s Product Managers attention.
Thank you for your review. We're sorry the bags haven't worked well for you. Our store colleagues will be happy to put things right for you. Please do take along your receipt or bank/card statement. We'll be sure to pass your comments on to our Buyers.
I just didn't like them as much as the previous ones I used to buy from you. I can't understand why you stopped selling them? They were brilliant for what I needed. These Bakewell ones are too fiddly with the ties and are too thin and unsubstantial.
We're sorry you found these too thin.
Why oh why did you change from the previous bags? These are poor quality and do not do the same job as your previous product. I had recommended them to so many people who along with me are disappointed.
