A bustling seaside café in Brighton, 'The Sweet Pier', was looking to refresh its dessert menu and elevate its presentation beyond simple bowls and plates. They needed something that looked elegant but could withstand a busy summer season of constant use and washing.
"These little glasses have completely transformed our dessert counter. Customers comment on them all the time. They make our homemade cheesecakes and trifles look so much more professional, and they're tough as anything."
Robert Miller – Owner
After introducing the glasses, the café tracked a noticeable 20% uplift in dessert sales, attributing it directly to the enhanced visual appeal and perfect portioning of their sweet treats.
Ever wondered what 'pressed glass' actually means for your business? It's a simple manufacturing technique with a massive impact on durability. Instead of being blown into shape, a blob of molten glass is mechanically pressed into a mould. Think of it like a blacksmith forging a tool rather than just bending it into shape. This process creates a much denser, stronger, and more uniform glass. For you, that means it's far more resistant to the little knocks, bumps, and thermal stresses of a commercial glasswasher. The result is fewer chips and cracks, which means you spend less time and money replacing broken glassware and more time serving happy customers.
Q: Are these glasses stackable for storage?
A: Due to their classic shape with a footed base, these glasses are not designed to be stacked as it could cause damage.
Q: Can I use these for hot desserts like a sticky toffee pudding?
A: We recommend these glasses for cold or room-temperature desserts. Exposing them to extreme heat could cause thermal shock and lead to cracking.
Q: How many glasses are included in one purchase?
A: These are sold in a box containing six individual dessert glasses.
Q: What does 'pressed glass' actually mean?
