Large Round Wood Pulp Banneton with ridges

These are larger wood pulp bannetons with an internal diameter of 23cm, so perfect for doughs weighing around 1kg.

They are ideal for producing authentic, artisan loaves. Made from wood pulp and 100% pure and natural.

A wood pulp banneton is better suited for sourdough bread baking than cane bannetons because:

1. it affords better heat absorption which is advantageous as most home bakers do not have a proofing cabinet;

2. it is easier to extract the dough as it doesn’t stick to the creases of the wood pulp bannetons, unlike those made of cane;

3. it has better moisture absorption (giving it back to the dough as needed) – this improves the rising of the dough;

4. ecologically, this material is better than cane. Spruce is locally available and renewable. While cane is also renewable, it is grown in Indonesian virgin forests and has to be shipped thousands of miles to Europe; and

5. it is easier to clean.
