Description
Wood pulp proofing baskets have been used in European bakeries for over 100 years; for good reason!
- They absorb moisture evenly, creating crispier crust
- They are environmentally friendly, made from sustainable wood pulp
- They are easy to clean, just allow them to dry completely between uses
- Their thick walls offer thermal insulation, limiting dough temperature fluctuations
- They are sturdy and have a professional look and feel
- They last a lifetime
I offer two shapes of proofing basket, a round and an oval . My go-to size is an 875g oval, but hey, some prefer the round!
The oval basket is for loaves 750 – 1000g (875g sweet spot)
The round is for loaves 650 – 900g (750g sweet spot)
*I have had many bakers bake 500g loaves in both and love them!
These are the only basket I use in my baking.
These wood pulp proofing baskets are hand made in Germany, so slight fluctuations in color and size basket to basket are expected.
Return Policy:
Since these are a food contact item, I cannot return opened proofing baskets.

I’ve had the oval for a while and just recently got the round. These proofing baskets are absolutely fantastic. Nowhere near as finicky as my bannetons were, and the results are great every time. In particular I appreciate that they are much easier to release a proofed loaf from. Gone are the days of flipping a basket over only to deflate my proofed loaf!

What a game changer! Love my new proofing baskets and bread mats…breads turned out great and bye-bye parchment paper!

I didn’t understand how the bread could bake up differently just by using a different vessel for the cold ferment. I love the crust on the bread when I’ve used these baskets!! Looking forward to adding more to my collection

I recently purchased 2 banettons and just used them yesterday – the care instructions are very clear and my dough released so easily from the baskets. Very happy with my purchase!

I purchased baskets and mats and couldn’t be happier , These baskets are a miracle. I used to struggle with dough sticking on my previous baskets from Amazon, and never had this problem with these baskets. Totally worth the price. I’m going to buy second set for my daughter as a gift.
