Breadtopia Cloche Clay Baker, USA, Oblong
Breadtopia's USA-made oblong clay cloche baker, designed for batards and longer loaves baked under a clay dome.
Price range: See on Amazon
What we liked
- + Oblong shape gives batards a proper home instead of squeezing them into a round pot
- + Made in the USA from clay that breathes, which helps create a crackly crust
- + Popular with home sourdough bakers who prefer natural clay over cast iron
Trade-offs
- - Clay needs preheating care and gradual cooling to avoid cracking
- - Oblong base does not work well for wide round boules
