Madeleine Small Loaf Dish

There’s something special about a homemade loaf cake, whether it’s a slice of banana bread with your morning coffee, a classic lemon loaf for afternoon tea or a comforting marble cake to share after dinner. The Emile Henry Small Loaf Dish is designed for those everyday baking moments when a smaller cake is all you need. Its compact size is ideal for recipes serving up to four people, making it a practical choice for smaller households, spontaneous baking and kitchens where space matters.

Small Dish, Beautiful Baking Results

Made from Emile Henry ceramic, this small loaf dish distributes heat gently and evenly throughout your mixture, helping your cake bake consistently from the edges right through to the centre. The even heat distribution encourages a beautiful rise and a tender result, whether you’re making banana bread, pound cake, a light sponge or a zesty lemon loaf. You can enjoy the pleasure of freshly baked cake without needing to prepare a full-sized loaf or find room for leftovers all week.

Its compact dimensions also make it particularly convenient for smaller kitchens and compact ovens. It brings the enjoyment of homemade baking into everyday life, giving you a practical way to make something delicious whenever the craving strikes.

Elegant Enough to Go Straight to the Table

A homemade cake deserves to look as good as it tastes. With its petal-inspired relief and glossy finish, the Emile Henry Small Loaf Dish offers an attractive presentation that looks lovely on the kitchen counter or dining table. There is no need to turn your cake out onto a separate serving plate if you would prefer to serve it directly from the dish. Simply bake, allow it to cool as needed, slice and share.

The naturally non-stick glaze helps make serving easier, while its scratch-resistant finish is designed for everyday practicality. You can even slice your cake directly in the dish using a suitable knife or metal cake server, helping keep serving simple and reducing the need for additional utensils.

Versatile, Practical and Easy to Care For

This little loaf dish is designed to do more than bake cakes. Its ceramic construction does not absorb odours or stains, helping preserve the true flavours of your recipes from one bake to the next. The PFAS-free design offers additional reassurance for those who prefer to avoid these substances in their bakeware.

Suitable for the oven, microwave, freezer and dishwasher, it fits easily into different stages of food preparation, serving and cleaning. Whether you are baking a fresh loaf, reheating a portion or storing food, its versatility makes it a useful addition to your everyday kitchen collection.

Our Baking Tip

For a beautifully risen loaf with that classic split along the top, try piping or spreading a thin line of softened butter down the centre of your cake batter before placing the dish in the oven. As the cake bakes, it will naturally open along this line, helping create the familiar look of a traditional homemade loaf.

Compact, attractive and designed for reliable baking, the Emile Henry Small Loaf Dish brings together everyday convenience and the pleasure of homemade treats. It is a lovely choice for anyone who wants to bake smaller portions without compromising on presentation or enjoyment.
