Description
Wood pulp proofing baskets have been used in European bakeries for over 100 years; for good reason!
- They absorb moisture evenly, creating a 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.

I first saw these proofing baskets in videos by Ash Turner of Turner Farms, and was intrigued. My new baskets did not disappoint. Good structure, held even softer loaves firmly, good release. Glad I bought them.

Love how the proofed bread maintains the shape.
Also maintaining and drying them has been very easy.

The baskets work wonderfully and are so high quality and easy to use and maintain. They’re my first baskets so I don’t have anything to compare them to, but from what I see out there, I am very happy to have paid a bit more for a product that will last forever.

By far the best proofing baskets I have ever use.
