FAQs
Is the Bia Glass Cloche dishwasher safe?
While the glass is durable, we recommend hand washing to prevent accidental chips or cracks that can occur during dishwasher cycles.
Does this product include a cake base?
No, this product is the glass dome only. You will need to use your own cake stand or flat plate.
What is the maximum cake size that fits?
The cloche is 260mm in diameter and 170mm in height. Ensure your cake is slightly smaller than these dimensions to allow for easy placement.
Will this keep my food safe from pests?
Yes, when placed correctly on a flat surface, the cloche creates an effective barrier against common kitchen pests and dust.
Can I store the cloche in the refrigerator?
Yes, as long as the shelf in your refrigerator provides enough vertical clearance for the 170mm height.
Troubleshooting
The cloche does not sit flush on my current cake stand
Ensure your cake stand surface is perfectly flat. If the stand has a raised lip, ensure the diameter of the stand's surface allows for the 260mm footprint of the cloche.
Glass looks cloudy after washing
Water spots may occur after washing; buff the glass with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to restore clarity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Bia Glass Cloche is straightforward: simply place your food item on a compatible flat-bottomed plate or cake stand, then carefully lower the cloche over it, ensuring the rim sits evenly on the plate surface. It is compatible with most standard 260mm or larger cake stands. To care for your cloche, hand wash it using warm soapy water and a soft cloth to avoid scratching the surface. Avoid using abrasive sponges or scouring pads. Because it is made of glass, always handle it with two hands and store it in a secure, low-traffic area of your kitchen cupboard.
