Porcelain baking cocottes Vilde set of 2, 260 ml each, oven-safe ramekins, model 279040

Set of two Vilde porcelain baking cocottes, each with a 260 ml capacity, designed for oven use. These oven-safe ramekins have a smooth glazed surface that supports even heat distribution and makes cleaning easier. The compact size is suitable for single portions and small baked dishes such as gratins, soufflés, crème brûlée and individual casseroles. The neutral white porcelain and classic shape fit a range of table settings and baking needs.

Advantages

The Vilde porcelain cocottes are made from kiln-fired porcelain that withstands high oven temperatures and delivers consistent thermal performance for uniform baking results. The glazed interior prevents strong food adhesion, facilitating cleaning after use. Their stackable dimensions save storage space while the 260 ml volume provides a practical portion size for individual servings. The uniform shape and smooth finish also allow for easy presentation straight from oven to table.

Suitable for

• Individual gratins and au gratin dishes
• Soufflés and baked custards such as crème brûlée
• Single-portion casseroles and pot pies
• Serving small desserts, puddings, or appetizers
• Baking and reheating in a conventional oven

When it may not be suitable

These porcelain cocottes are intended for oven use and individual portions; they are not designed for direct exposure to open flames or stovetop cooking. Because of their compact 260 ml capacity, they may not be suitable for preparing large family-size dishes or recipes that require larger single vessels.

How to use

Preheat the oven according to your recipe before placing the filled cocottes on a baking tray or oven rack. For recipes with delicate fillings such as soufflés or crème brûlée, monitor baking time and temperature to achieve the desired texture. Allow the cocottes to cool briefly after removal from the oven before handling; use oven mitts or a kitchen towel. Clean with warm water and mild detergent—avoid sudden temperature shocks such as rinsing a hot dish under cold water.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that the 260 ml capacity matches the portion size you need.
• Check that your oven dimensions accommodate the number and shape of cocottes you plan to use simultaneously.
• Consider whether you need lids or additional sizes for stacking or particular recipes (lids not included).

Usage recommendations

To prolong product life and maintain appearance, preheat the oven gradually, avoid thermal shock, and handwash when possible. For even browning, place the cocottes on a baking tray and position them in the center of the oven. When making crème brûlée, cool fully and torch the sugar topping briefly to avoid overheating the porcelain.
