Hi,

I'd like some acetate sheets for cooking but I can only find them in 50 packs. That's more than I'd ever need so where can I find them in smaller amounts like 1-10?

Thanks.

Try any art supplies store in your town - they sell acetate sheets by pcs.

Thanks for the links John,

Mike - I read that there is a difference between acetate sheets for cooking (food safe) and ones you buy at the art store. I don't want to risk it.

I think that's wise...why risk it.

I was in my local art supply shop yesterday and was told that the sheets that most art supply places sell labeled as "acetate" are not actually acetate; they're usually vinyl or some other type of plastic. So I really wouldn't risk using them for cooking applications if you need actual acetate for that!
