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’m so happy with these bannetons! I purchased two of each (round and oval) with my fingers crossed, throwing caution to the wind!! And they have not disappointed me one bit! They are easy to season, easy to clean, my dough doesn’t stick and it proofs beautifully!

Such a great basket. Along with the bread mat, my loaves are better than ever!

I love this proofing basket! My dough doesn’t stick! I would recommend buying the two-pack. I only purchased one to see how it worked. It is so much better than a regular proofing basket that I’m going back to buy the other shape!

No more sticking to the basket liners. I would like a larger size too. Great product
