Details

The Baking Shell creates the perfect environment for baking great bread. Lightweight and easy to handle, it requires no preheating.

Heat quickly passes through the shell and steam is trapped under it. For the perfect combination of a classic dough rise and crackling crispy crust, lift the shell off halfway through baking.

With the Baking Shell, you get the same results as traditional pre-heated and heavy cast iron vessels, without the stress of lugging around a searing hot and heavy pot. The most frantic part of bread baking is now the easiest. Just slide the bread dough onto any flat baking surface in your oven and place the shell over it.

Also used as a convenient cover to keep bread fresh when stored on a countertop, butcher block, or cutting board.

FAQs
Which Baking Shell should I choose?
• Batard Shell: This shell is ideal for bakers who prefer a more compact baking vessel that takes up less space when stored. It accommodates up to ~800g of dough shaped like a batard.
• Boule Shell: This shell offers flexibility, as it accommodates both boules and batards. It’s perfect for those who want to bake larger loaves or prefer more versatility in their baking.
What is the maximum dough weight for the Baking Shell?
Batard: Up to ~800g of dough.
Boule: Up to ~1,200g of dough, shaped either round or as a batard.
The exact capacity may vary depending on the particular type of dough, how it is shaped, and how much it spreads during baking.
Do I need to preheat the Baking Shell?
No, there’s no need to preheat the Baking Shell. Unlike cast iron, which is heavy and requires a long time to preheat, the lightweight shell reaches the set oven temp in roughly a minute.
