The lamp is made in Japan. The Batard Bread Lamp emanates a warm and soft light. It is made from bread flour, cake flour, salt, yeast, LED lights and a power cord with a dimmer switch. It is 13 inches long and 3.5 inches wide and retails at $210.
How to make lamp out of bread
The first step towards making a lamp out of bread is to make the loaf of bread at home. The next step is to poke holes in the loaf. The holes should not be see-through. A thin layer of bread should remain on the hole. A light should then be inserted into the bread, attached with a cord or a battery-run light. The loaf of bread then needs to be covered in resin or sealed using shellac.
Gwyneth Paltrow has starred in a host of blockbuster movies. She is known for her roles in Seven, Emma, Sliding Doors, A Perfect Murder and Shakespeare in Love. She also starred in the famous Marvel movie Iron Man, The Talented Mr Ripley, The Royal Tenenbaums and Shallow Hal. She was last seen in the movie Avengers: Endgame.
