Product Details
Designed with a steam-trapping domed lid and exceptional heat retention, this Lodge Cast Iron Bread Cloche with Skillet Base delivers artisan-quality breads at home. Crafted from durable cast iron and pre-seasoned with 100% natural vegetable oil, it features a bell-shaped domed lid engineered to capture and circulate steam far more effectively than standard Dutch ovens. This creates the ultimate environment for maximum oven spring, producing loaves with golden, blistered crusts and perfectly tender centres. Tailored specifically for home bakers and sourdough enthusiasts, it is safe at temperatures up to 315°C (600°F). Its low-profile base makes transferring scored dough effortless and safe, ensuring consistent, professional-quality bakes every time.
Why we love it
'Unlike standard Dutch ovens, this specialised baker features a clever domed lid that traps moisture to give your sourdough that sought-after crackly crust and ideal rise, and the pre-seasoned cast iron only gets better the more you bake with it.'
