Manufaktura Baker

While the ceramic is durable, we recommend letting the dish come to room temperature before placing it in a hot oven to avoid thermal shock. Extreme temperature changes can cause cracking in handcrafted clay pieces.

This baker measures 2 inches deep. It is well-suited for standard casseroles, roasted vegetables, or gratins, though it may be too shallow for deep-dish lasagnas or tall soufflés.

The high-quality glaze is designed to be stain-resistant and durable for daily use. However, to maintain the finish and prevent surface scratches, we recommend using wooden or silicone utensils rather than metal ones.

Yes, it is dishwasher safe. Its smooth, glazed surface makes it easy to clean, though hand washing is often recommended for handcrafted ceramics to preserve the finish over the long term.

Yes, the robust clay construction offers excellent heat retention. Once you pull it from the oven, it will stay warm for a significant amount of time, making it an ideal vessel for serving directly at the table.
