Bread Box

A bread box is a compact storage container designed to keep bread and other baked goods fresh for a longer period. Typically made of wood, metal, or plastic, it has a lid that either lifts or slides open. Bread boxes are usually smaller in size, meant to hold a loaf or two, and are often placed on kitchen countertops. They help control moisture levels, preventing bread from drying out too quickly while also reducing excessive humidity that can lead to mold growth. Some modern bread boxes feature ventilation holes or perforations to balance airflow, ensuring optimal storage conditions.
