Natural Cane Bread Proofing Basket

Give homemade loaves their final rise in a traditional natural-cane proofing basket. The coiled surface supports shaped dough and leaves a distinctive spiral pattern.

Choose one basket in your preferred shape and size. The group photograph illustrates the range; each purchase includes only the selected basket.

• Round: 7, 8, 10 or 11 inches in diameter
• Baguette: 17 × 3 inches
• Oval: 10 × 7 inches
• Rectangular: 12 × 5.5 inches

Flour the basket before the final rise, then turn the dough onto a baking surface. This basket is for proofing and serving; do not bake in it.

Care: Shake out excess flour. Let any remaining dough dry and brush it away. When needed, brush with warm water without soap and allow to dry completely before storing.
