This is the banneton I have used. I bake bread every weekend and I have tried both the long one and the round one. Worked better than my previous ones.The material does not stick to the dough naturally so you need very little flour.I love that is a solid piece and has no holes so I don’t make a mess when I sprinkle with flour.It absorbs moisture so it keeps the dough in a perfect environment. I proof in the fridge overnight and all my loafs have come out great.I wish I have gotten this earlier.

This banneton has made bread shaping so much easier. I prep the banneton by coating it in a thin layer of rice flour. I've never had any issues with my bread dough sticking. To clean, do not use water. Just brush with a dry soft bristle brush and store for the next use. Puts a really fun pattern on the bread.

High hydration dough does not stick. These spruce pulp proof baskets are great. I have always had to over flour and struggle with linen lined baskets. These are such a joy to work with. Plus I love the fact that they are chemical free and made in the EU.

I began my sourdough journey this past year and purchased two Bulka bannetons, round and oval. I have never had a problem with my high hydration dough sticking. The key is to dust the Bulka with fine white rice flour, which can be purchased inexpensively at Asian markets. No need for a liner or towel! After use and air drying, my bannetons clean easily with a stiff pastry brush. Highly recommend this well made, quality item.

I've been baking sourdough loaves and gifting them away for a couple of years and decided I needed to notch up my final outcome. Bulka bannetons kept surfacing as the rising basket with great quality, a true top shelf item for bread making and the results truly blew me away. I'm kicking myself I didn't invest in these earlier. They are a game changer. Easy to use. Clear instructions. Highly recommend.

Love the banneton bread basket but seems small for 500g of flour! Love how easy the bread comes out of basket and you don’t need to season it. Wish I had ordered a bigger one!I’m very happy that this company explain the size of the banneton basket was for 500g but only when you weigh it out after. So this is why I was thinking it was too small, so I will be purchasing the bigger one since the finished product would weigh more than 500g! Very pleasant to work with them. Love the sturdiness of the basket and how easy your bread comes out!Ordered the larger 9” proofing basket and this one is just perfect for my 500g flour. After the company explained that a finished product weigh more and that’s going to fit a basket by weight and not just grams ! Made a loaf yesterday and it came out of so nice and perfect! These proofing baskets are the greatest! For the cost they are worth every penny.

Works well! Use gentle brush-NO water to clean.I especially bought this one because it is NOT made in China!

I recently used the Bulka bread banneton to make a sourdough loaf, and I’m beyond impressed with its performance. The quality of the banneton is evident from the start, with a sturdy build and a textured , surface that makes bread-making enjoyable and mess-free. Each loaf turns out beautifully lofty with a well-defined shape, adding an artisan look to my bakes. Cleanup is a breeze, and while I initially wondered about its long-term durability, it has held up wonderfully so far. It’s refreshing to support smaller companies that deliver high-quality craftsmanship—keep up the great work!”

Works great. Follow the instructions to dry it out after so you don’t get mold. Overall really nice

I was expecting something more advanced than the typical Banneton bowl especially at $60.00 and made in Germany. However. It’s essentially thick cardboard material similar to a paper machete or close to thick packaging cardboard. There is no way of properly maintaining it to avoid mildew or bacteria - as some have already complained about mold. I won’t even bother trying only to get stuck with another piece of junk to the landfill again and be out $60.00. Common sense tells me this is not practical and was a very poorly thought out product by the supplier and manufacturer.I’ve tried a few of the other typical Bennton bowls here on Amazon and they all start to split, leaving slivers in my dough and early signs of mold. I think these Bennton bowls are way over stated and not worth the risk. Let the dough rise in a glass or solid wooden bowl, flip it over into a Dutch oven score it, make fancy designs and bake! No need for these other bowls.

I tend to make high hydration doughs with a decent amount of wholemeal flour so they can get pretty sticky. Wicker is fine but if I’m not super careful I can end up partly deflating the dough as I try to get it out of the banneton. This has never even been close to happening with this one - it just makes the whole process of bulk fermentation a breeze.

Not very impressed with the construction of this product. Looks like pressed paper. Photos of it on Amazon didn't clearly show how cheaply this product was constructed. But it clearly states don't wash...it would melt if immersed in water.
