Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Willow Tea Room, a bustling spot in the heart of Bath, was looking to refresh its afternoon tea set to stand out in a competitive local market and better complement their homemade cakes.
"We needed plates that were pretty but could also handle the relentless cycle of service and washing. The Olympia Fondant plates were the perfect fit. Customers always comment on the lovely colour, and they've not shown a single chip in months of use."
Robert Finch – Proprietor
The tableware refresh contributed to a notable increase in social media shares from customers, boosting their online visibility.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, give all plates a quick wash in warm, soapy water to remove any dust from transit.
- The stackable design means they fit neatly into standard plate racks and shelves, saving space.
- When stacking, avoid sliding plates over one another; always lift them to prevent any surface scuffs on the glaze.
Keeping It Going
- These plates are fully dishwasher safe and suitable for intensive commercial machine cycles.
- To prevent scratching, avoid using abrasive steel wool or harsh scouring pads when handwashing.
- The non-porous surface resists stains, but it's good practice to rinse off strong-coloured sauces like berry coulis if plates are left for long periods.
- The Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty provides excellent cover, but always handle with care as you would any quality crockery.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these plates sold individually?
A: These Olympia CU411 plates are supplied in a pack of 6, which is ideal for kitting out a small café or topping up your existing stock.
Q: What does the 'reactive glaze' mean?
A: It's a special glazing process that creates subtle, unique variations in the finish of each plate, giving them a handcrafted, artisan look so no two are exactly identical.
Q: Can these plates handle a hot salamander or grill?
A: While they are oven-safe for warming and cooking, direct, intense overhead heat from a salamander is not recommended for any porcelain.
Q: Is the yellow colour very bright?
A: No, it's a soft, pastel lemon shade. It adds a touch of colour without being overpowering, designed to complement your food presentation beautifully.
Q: What is the BS4034 Vitrified Hotelware Standard?
A: It's a British industry standard that certifies the crockery has very low water absorption and high durability, making it suitable for professional hospitality use.
Q: Are these plates heavy?
A: The total weight for the box of six is 2.16kg, meaning each plate has a reassuring but manageable weight that feels high-quality without being cumbersome for staff.
Q: Will the colour fade in a commercial dishwasher?
A: No, the colour is part of the durable glaze. These plates are designed to withstand repeated, high-temperature commercial dishwashing cycles without fading.
Q: Can I use metal cutlery on them without leaving marks?
A: Yes, they are designed for use with standard cutlery. The hard, vitrified surface is highly resistant to cutlery marking from everyday use.

Explore more from OlympiaWhat Does 'Fully Vitrified' Actually Mean for Your Kitchen?
You'll see 'fully vitrified' on a lot of quality crockery, but what is it? Think of it like turning a porous sponge into a solid piece of glass. During firing, the porcelain is heated to such a high temperature that the clay particles fuse together, closing all the tiny pores. This makes the plate incredibly strong, non-porous (so it won't absorb water, odours, or flavours from strong foods), and much more resistant to thermal shock from ovens or dishwashers. It's the secret ingredient that makes professional tableware last for years, not just months, in a busy commercial environment.
