Hi Theresa, the answer to your question depends on which kind of cloche you purchased. If it was the one we sell, then it's not designed to be preheated empty. If it was made by another manufacturer, you might want to check with them before baking with it for the first time. (Look on the bottom for a manufacturer's stamp.) Kye@KAF
