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.

So far, so good! The baskets are so much easier than the traditional ones I was using.
I am finding that my loaves are easier to remove and the added bonus is: I don’t have to clean the linen liners.

Easy to use, practically no cleaning after proofing, the dough comes out easy and in perfect form. Have been recommending it to everyone I know that makes sourdough!!

These have helped my sourdough soar to great heights! I won these proofing baskets which I was so excited about! Make sure to read the care instructions as they have to be cleaned in the oven a certain way and never wet…etc. it is so worth it! I made a little shelf in my pantry just for sourdough stuff and there they sit, ready for the next batch. My loafs are so much poofier and crispier, so much better than the Amazon bowls I was using!

I replaced my traditional proofing baskets with these and I am very happy. Worked well and will order more when needed.
