FAQs
Is the biscuit tin airtight?
The bamboo lid provides a standard cover for your biscuits, but it is not vacuum-sealed or airtight.
Can I put the lid in the dishwasher?
No, the bamboo lid should only be wiped clean with a damp cloth to prevent damage.
How much does it hold?
It has a 2.7L capacity, which is typically enough for a large packet of biscuits or a batch of homemade cookies.
Does it come in other sizes?
Yes, smaller canisters for tea, coffee, and sugar are available in the same Desert Flowers range.
What are the exact dimensions?
The tin is approximately 16.5cm in diameter and 19cm in height.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels loose or tight
Bamboo is a natural material that expands and contracts with humidity; ensure it is stored in a stable, dry environment.
Interior enamel feels damp
Always ensure the container is bone dry after washing before placing biscuits inside to prevent them from softening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the tin is straightforward: simply wash the enamel interior with mild soapy water before first use and ensure it is completely dry before adding food items.
Care instructions:
- Enamel Body: Hand wash only with mild soap to maintain the finish.
- Bamboo Lid: This component should be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Never submerge the lid in water or place it in a dishwasher, as moisture can cause the natural bamboo to warp or crack over time.
- Compatibility: Designed as a standalone storage piece but complements the full Desert Flowers collection of kitchen canisters.
