Brød & Taylor Batard Baking Shell

The lightweight construction allows you to handle the shell easily without preheating. It efficiently transfers heat and traps steam underneath, supporting an optimal dough rise and a crisp crust. Midway through baking, you can lift the shell to achieve a balanced finish similar to heavy cast iron vessels without the weight and handling challenges.

Made from pure anodized aluminum, the shell avoids non-stick chemicals and additives, meeting FDA safety standards. Its dimensions of 32 x 20 x 14 cm and weight of 480g make it practical for use and storage. This shell is designed to simplify bread baking by sliding the dough onto a flat oven surface and covering it with the shell, enhancing crust formation. It also serves as a cover to keep bread fresh on countertops or cutting boards.
