The ideal Bread bin for medium-sized households with a typical Success story: We originally included it in our range because our producers only had this version available, but not the one we ordered. Nevertheless, the Single bread bin quickly became our favourite bread bin.
The reason for this is the ideal shape: Long enough to easily store a large loaf of bread and beautifully flat and compact, this single bread tin will find its place in any kitchen.
Good bread should stay fresh for a long time. Our bread tins, which have been carefully crafted from birch bark, provide the best conditions for this: The natural birch bark regulates the moisture balance by itself, the essential oils, naturally contained in the bark, keep your baked goods fresh for a long time and prevent the formation of mould.
This lunch box is held together exclusively with tried and tested plug-in joints and seams with birch bark threads. It comes Completely without glue This is unique in the world. The bark surface is not bleached or treated with chemicals. This means that the tin is made entirely from untreated birch bark without additional substances.
Additionally recommended: Wooden grid for insertion
Your bread is best stored in the bread bin, if it is ventilated from all sides. Excess moisture can then be absorbed by the air at all points of the loaf and removed via the rind and seam holes. You can achieve this ideal storage by placing a spacer wooden grid on the bottom of the tin. When developing such spacers, we chose Swiss stone pine because its wood naturally keeps pests away - so our grids, which we have produced in social facilities in Germany, offer additional protection and ensure that your bread stays fresh and tasty.
Sometimes bread pans are labelled as bread boxes made of birch wood. This is a confusion. Our bread boxes are not made of wood, but are made entirely of birch bark, a layer of cork that wraps around the cambium of the tree and the characteristic appearance of the birch.
As the products are handmade, the dimensions may vary slightly.
As a natural product, each of our birch bark vessels is unique and no two are the same. There may therefore be variations in colour, for example.

Questions & answers about birch bark tins
- regulates the moisture balance by itself and
- mould formation is thus prevented.
The birch bark box is classically round and very decorative. It is particularly suitable for serving slices of bread and biscuits in the centre of the table. It can hold a small round loaf of bread or some pastries. After eating, simply close the lid, place in the kitchen - and your bread and pastries are perfectly stored.
Your good bread stays fresh for a long time because the natural birch bark
The bark is removed in early summer harvested from living, predominantly old trees. The cambium is not damaged and the tree can continue to live. Nevertheless, it can happen that it is attacked by pests or fungi before new bark forms and then dies over the years. However, it then enriches the largely natural taiga as deadwood and makes room for higher-value species and young trees. This corresponds to the natural vegetation change. Like timber harvesting, bark utilisation is of course an intervention in the commercial forest. As individual trees in the mixed forest stand are utilised carefully, this is not ecologically problematic.
- The cans can be wiped with a damp clothbut also under the tap rinsed out if you let them dry well afterwards
- You can wash out the lunch boxes, also with vinegar water, and then place them in the oven at approx. 60°C for half an hour. This kills any mould spores and the tin can be used as before. To prevent mould growth, we recommend our Swiss stone pine grids. We enclose care instructions with every tin you buy.
- As a rule, the cans take on the flavour of the stored food, not the other way round. This can only have an effect on the flavour if low-odour food is stored for a very long time.
- No further care is necessaryrubbing with oil is expressly not recommended.
- The material used for the completely untreated, sustainable produced vessels consists of the outermost layer of the Birch barkthat we know white. In early summer, when the sap rises in the tree, the bark is easy to slit. The white layer is peeled off and the inside is golden yellow; this is used for further processing because it is more robust and durable than the outside.
- All vessels are handmade and unique.
- antiseptic (Mould formation can be prevented)
- Waterproof and robust (therefore washable)
- flavour-tightopaque
- Mothproof (Swiss stone pine wood)
- unbreakable, tight closure, trickle-proof
- light
- pH-neutral, soft and velvety like leather
They are:
- Tea, coffee (the tins are flavour-proof), herbs, spices, muesli & flour (trickle-proof), nuts, lentils, dried mushrooms
- Bread, pastries, cakes
All dry foods, e.g:
- We obtain these cans from Family businesses in Siberia (not far from the city of Tomsk), Tim Mergelsberg, the founder and managing director of sagaan, has lived in the region himself and is usually there once a year.
- We attach great importance to good social interaction and fair payment. For example, sagaan pre-financed the purchase of a family's house as a home and workshop.
- We pay attention to vegan, ecological and socially fair manufacturing processes. No chemicals are used in the entire production chain. Instead, we rely on plug-in and sewing techniques. Only individual products in the particularly flavour-tight Taiga series use some wood glue on the inside.

The bread bin is simply perfect. Keeps bread fresh for a long time and looks great at the same time. Only the name doesn't quite fit, it holds more than a „single“ 😉
