The Olympia Fondant range really nails the current trend for softer, more expressive tableware. That subtle pink and the unique reactive glaze give it a premium, almost bespoke feel that can instantly elevate a venue's atmosphere. It’s a clever way to add personality without overhauling your entire decor.

- Standout Finish: The reactive glaze means no two plates are identical, adding authentic charm.
- Specific Aesthetic: The pastel colour is beautiful but won't fit every brand's existing colour scheme.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Gilded Teacup," a popular afternoon tea room in Bath, was looking to update its tableware to create a more vibrant and 'Instagrammable' customer experience that matched its floral-themed decor.
"We switched from plain white to the Olympia Fondant collection, and the difference was instant. The pink plates are just gorgeous. Our cakes look more appealing, and customers are constantly snapping photos of their table. They feel lovely and solid, too."
Clara Jenkins – Owner
The new tableware contributed to a significant uplift in their social media engagement, with customer photo tags increasing by over 50% in the first three months.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, carefully check each plate for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
- Give the plates a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand before their first use.
- Ensure your shelving is clean and ready to store your new crockery.
Keeping It Going
- These plates are dishwasher safe, but avoid overcrowding the racks to prevent chipping.
- To prevent thermal shock, avoid moving plates directly from a hot oven to a cold surface or into cold water.
- Stack plates of the same size together to ensure stability and prevent toppling.
- The vitrified body resists staining, but it's always best to rinse off strong-coloured foods like beetroot or turmeric after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does 'fully vitrified' actually mean?
A: It's a high-temperature firing process that makes the porcelain non-porous, meaning it won't absorb water, grease, or odours. It also makes it much stronger and more durable than standard ceramic.
Q: Is the colour consistent across all the plates in the 6 pack?
A: Due to the unique reactive glaze, there will be subtle variations in the finish and pattern of each plate. This is an intentional design feature that gives them their distinct charm.
Q: What cup are these fondant saucers Olympia CU463 designed for?
A: These saucers are the perfect match for the Olympia Fondant Pink Porcelain Cups, product code CU462.
Q: Are they completely flat?
A: They have a shallow, curved profile with a slightly raised, rolled edge, typical of a saucer or small side plate design, which helps keep food or a cup base secure.
Q: How does the Lifetime Edge-Chip Warranty work?
A: This warranty covers chipping on the rolled edge of the plate under normal food service conditions, demonstrating the manufacturer's confidence in the product's durability.
Q: Will they stain from things like curry or beetroot?
A: The vitrified, glazed surface is highly resistant to staining. For best results, simply rinse or wash them in a timely manner after use.
Q: Is the surface glossy or matte?
A: The finish is a smooth, gentle gloss which highlights the colour and the unique patterns from the reactive glaze.
Q: Do these stack neatly without wobbling?
A: Yes, they are designed to be stackable, allowing for safe, stable, and space-efficient storage in your kitchen.
The Olympia Advantage: Where Style Meets Stamina

For decades, Olympia has perfected the art of balancing contemporary design with the relentless demands of the professional kitchen. The Fondant collection is a perfect example of this philosophy.

This isn't just crockery; it's a reliable business asset designed to withstand thousands of cycles through the dishwasher and countless services, all while resisting chips and wear. Investing in Olympia means fewer replacements, consistent presentation, and the peace of mind that your tableware is as tough as your team.
Explore more from OlympiaWhat Is a 'Reactive Glaze' and Why Does It Matter?
Ever wondered how some pottery gets that unique, slightly varied, handcrafted look? Often, it's down to a reactive glaze. Think of it less like a simple coat of paint and more like a mini science experiment on every plate. During firing in the kiln, special minerals within the glaze react to the intense heat, flowing and settling in a unique pattern. This means that while every one of these pink porcelain side plates 155mm shares the same beautiful pastel DNA, no two are ever 100% identical. It’s the secret to getting an authentic, artisanal feel for your tables, without the fragility or high cost of true studio pottery.
Who Should Buy This?

- Dessert Parlours: These small pink dessert plates make colourful macarons, petit fours, and truffles look irresistible.
- Hotel Afternoon Tea Services: A perfect way to add a modern, sophisticated colour pop to your tiered cake stands.
- Contemporary Bistros: Use these Olympia pink side plates for serving bread, amuse-bouche, or small starters with flair.
