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 waited awhile before I bought these because they are pricey and my other proofing baskets work so well. But I finally decided to get them when ordering my sling (which is amazing btw) because I figured would make sense shipping-wise… I am soooo disappointed with these… the dough consistently sticks even though I use rice flour to dust them… now I get that I might need to use more rice flour but I don’t really love the idea of having to use more rice flour with these than w my others… I’m pretty annoyed!

Hi KittMC! I just emailed you. We’ll get this figured out. I bet you just need to add a short bench rest to your process and they’ll pop right out! -Mike
