It depends on what you plan to use your rolling pin for because a marble rolling pin works best for thick dough since it's so heavy. On the other hand, a wooden rolling pin is lightweight, and it works well when you need to even out thin yeast dough or fondants. Keep in mind that wooden pins absorb moisture and oil, though marble pins do not. Wooden pins are prone to storing bacteria in cracks whereas marble pins do not store any. Marble pins are cold, so they won't melt the butter inside the dough, but wooden pins cause the butter to melt. Keep these differences in mind when deciding which type of rolling pin is best for you.
