The Matfer Bourgeat 118510 Proofing Basket is an essential tool for any commercial bakery or food service operation focused on producing high-quality bread. This proofing basket is specifically designed to support the fermentation process of dough, allowing it to rise and develop its unique flavor and texture. Ideal for artisan bakers and commercial kitchens alike, this proofing basket is crafted to accommodate the needs of professionals who demand consistent results in their bread-making processes.

Constructed with high-quality wicker, the Matfer Bourgeat 118510 Proofing Basket is lined with French linen, which is stitched securely into the basket.
