A mat device for receiving dough to be rolled out and reducing the mess usually associated with rolling out of the dough includes a sheet including a top surface and a bottom surface. The bottom surface is positioned on a support surface. The sheet has a folding line extending along a width of the sheet and bisecting the sheet into a first section and a second section. The folding line facilitates folding of the second section with respect to the first section. An adhesive is coupled to the bottom surface of the first section of the sheet. The adhesive releasably adheres the first section to the support surface when the first section is placed on the support surface.
