Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Garden Pantry, a popular delicatessen in York, wanted to switch from their old plastic containers to a more sustainable option that matched their brand's earthy, local-first ethos. They needed something that looked good and was practical for their range of salads, cakes, and savoury bites.
"Our customers immediately noticed the change. The new trays look so much better on the shelf and people feel better about buying from us. They're sturdy enough for everything we've thrown at them and make our food look even more appealing."
Tom Wallace – Owner, The Garden Pantry
Since making the switch, the deli has seen a noticeable increase in positive customer comments on their packaging and reports a 10% rise in cake and pastry sales.

Explore more from Fiesta RecyclableMore Than Just Paper: The Non-Stick Lining Advantage
Ever served a beautiful slice of cake on a paper plate, only for it to leave a greasy mark and start to go soft? That's what the non-stick lining on these trays is designed to prevent. It’s a super-thin, food-safe barrier that’s bonded to the paper. Think of it like the specialist baking parchment you use at home, but expertly moulded into a sturdy, stylish tray. This lining stops moisture from a fresh salad or oils from a pastry from soaking through. This means the tray stays strong and rigid, and your food looks just as delicious when your customer eats it as it did when you packed it.
