What is a pizza dough proofing container?
A dough proofing container is a small, food-safe vessel designed to let your pizza dough rise evenly without sticking or flattening. It creates the ideal environment for fermentation, giving you a light, airy base with perfect structure.
Why should I use a container to proof pizza dough?
Using a proper proofing container keeps your dough balls in shape, prevents sticking to bowls or cling film, and ensures consistent fermentation. The result? Dough that’s easier to stretch, bake, and enjoy.
Do Babadoh dough proofing containers stack neatly in the fridge?
Yes! Babadoh containers are fully stackable, making it easy to proof multiple dough balls while saving valuable fridge space. No mess, no wasted room.
Are the containers non-stick and easy to clean?
Absolutely. Made from flexible, premium silicone, the dough doesn’t cling to the surface, so cleaning takes seconds. They’re also 100% dishwasher safe.
Can I use Babadoh containers for other types of dough?
Definitely. They’re perfect for sourdough, focaccia, bread rolls, and any recipe that needs a controlled fermentation space.
How much dough fits in each container?
The Classic container is ideal for 250 g dough balls (12″ pizzas). For larger dough balls around 350 g (12–16″ pizzas), the Big container is your best choice.
Why are these better than regular food containers
Standard tubs aren’t designed for rising dough - your dough often sticks or spreads flat. Babadoh containers are soft, flexible, and purpose-built to keep each dough ball in perfect form while it proofs.
Are Babadoh containers safe for food and long-term use?
Yes. They’re made from BPA-free, LFGB-certified food-grade silicone that won’t absorb odours, stain, or degrade. Built to last, hygienic every time.
Can I use them for overnight dough rising in the fridge?
Definitely. Babadoh containers are perfect for cold fermentation - just place your dough inside, pop on the lid, and let the fridge do the rest.
How many containers do I need?
For regular pizza nights, a 3-Pack or 6-Pack is ideal. You’ll always have dough proofing and ready to bake, making prep faster and easier.
Can I use Babadoh containers in the freezer, microwave, or oven?
Yes! Babadoh containers are freezer-safe, microwave-friendly, and oven-safe up to 200 °C. They’re designed for flexible use - store, reheat, or bake with ease.
Are Babadoh dough proofing containers eco-friendly?
Absolutely. Made from durable, reusable silicone, they eliminate the need for cling film, foil, or single-use plastic tubs. Designed for years of use, they help reduce kitchen waste while making pizza nights more sustainable.
