About BakeUp Baking Fish the Upright Way How to get the fish to bake evenly on all sides?
That was the question that created BakeUp. Having noticed that the fish on the bottom side actually cooks in its own juices (or marinade) rather than bakes, we turned the baking process upside down. Literally.
BakeUp is innovatively designed kitchen gadget that lets you bake the fish exposing it to heat evenly, without obstruction. No more soggy fish on one side.
The fish doesn’t need to be turned during the baking, oil is optional and the fish is aromatized from the inside. Since the fish never comes in contact with the liquid it releases, it will get crispy crust on all sides.

BakeUp Designer
The iconic and ergonomic shape of a boat inspired me to design BakeUp. I wanted to use shapes that tell a story of the connection between humans, the sea, and the creatures living in the sea. When I look at BakeUp, that’s what I see: a story of humans, spanning millennia.”
How it works? Easy Oven-Baked Fish in 6 Steps
Step 01
Make a cut
Make a 7-8-cm cut in the fish* belly and pull out the insides (but leave the head and gills on)
* BakeUp is suitable for fish approx. the size of the sea bass, gilthead seabream, European hake, larger pieces of chub mackerel, etc.
Step 02
Spice the BakeUp cup
Put the spices and herbs inside the BakeUp cup (salt, pepper, parsley, lemon, etc. and if you wish – oil). The cup is designed to let the heat circulate through it and release the aroma inside the fish
