- Top-Tier Durability: The BS4034 vitrification and rolled edges make these exceptionally tough for their size.
- Niche Size: At 68mm, they are perfect for dips but may be too small for other uses.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Willow Bistro" in Bakewell, Derbyshire, was looking to upgrade its tableware to better match its modern British menu and reduce frequent breakages. They chose the Olympia mint dipping dishes for their afternoon tea service to hold clotted cream and homemade preserves.
"We were fed up with our old dishes chipping and looking tired. These Olympia bowls are not only beautiful, adding a lovely touch of colour, but they are incredibly tough. They go through the dishwasher multiple times a day and still look brand new. Our customers have even commented on them!"
Robert Evans – Owner
The bistro saw a significant drop in replacement costs, noting that chipping and breakage of their small bowls decreased by over 40% in the first three months of use.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully inspect each dish for any signs of damage during transit.
- Give the full set a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher or hot, soapy water before its first use.
- Ensure dishes are completely dry before stacking to prevent moisture from being trapped.
Keeping It Going
- When loading into a dishwasher, avoid overcrowding the rack to prevent items from knocking together.
- While durable, avoid extreme temperature changes, like taking a dish from a hot oven and placing it on a cold, wet surface.
- Stack dishes of the same size together on a level surface to maintain stability and prevent toppling.
- For any stubborn food marks, soak in warm water rather than using abrasive scourers which can dull the finish over time.

You'll often see 'vitrified porcelain' mentioned, but what does it actually mean for your busy kitchen? Think of it as giving the porcelain a superpower. During manufacturing, the dish is fired at an extremely high temperature, which causes the clay body to become 'vitrified'—meaning it turns glass-like and non-porous. This process is governed by the British Standard BS4034 to ensure it meets specific strength and water absorption tests.
The real-world benefit is simple: a vitrified dish is like a knight in shining armour. It won't absorb water, grease, or odours from food, which makes it far more hygienic and resistant to stains. It's also much, much tougher and more resistant to the 'thermal shock' of going from a hot oven to a cooler surface. So, when you see 'Vitrified to BS4034', you know you're not just buying a dish; you're investing in a piece of equipment that's built to last.
Who Should Buy This?
- Dessert Parlours & Patisseries: Ideal for serving warm chocolate or caramel sauces alongside cakes, waffles, and fondants.
- Fine Dining Restaurants: Perfect for presenting an amuse-bouche, flavoured oils, or individual butter portions with style.
- Cafes and Tea Rooms: A brilliant choice for serving individual portions of jam and clotted cream with scones.
- Hotels & Event Caterers: The durable, stackable nature makes this mint dipping dish set 12 pack perfect for high-volume buffets and functions.
