- Top Marks: The robust iron frame feels much sturdier than cheaper alternatives.
- Heads Up: The open-wire design means you'll need a liner for small or crumbly items.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle, a busy tearoom in the heart of York, wanted to refresh its countertop display to better showcase their famous homemade scones and cakes. They swapped out their old wicker baskets for these Olympia wire trays.
"They just look so much cleaner and more modern. Our counter immediately looked less cluttered and more professional. Customers have commented on how lovely the display is, and the scones are definitely moving faster!"
Susan Miller – Owner
The new presentation helped increase morning pastry and scone sales by over 15% in the first two months.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, give the basket a quick inspection to ensure it's perfect.
- Wipe it down with a clean, damp cloth before its first use.
- If using for unwrapped food, always place a sheet of greaseproof paper or a napkin down first.
- Plan your layout! See how it fits with other items before you load it with products.
Keeping It Going
- This basket is wipe-clean only; do not put it in a commercial dishwasher.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemical cleaners which could damage the black finish.
- Regularly check the feet to ensure they haven't been damaged, to prevent scratching surfaces.
- When not in use, store it in a dry place to prevent any risk of rust.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I put hot food directly in the basket?
A: It's designed for displaying ambient temperature foods. For hot items like bread rolls, it's best to line the basket with a napkin or greaseproof paper.
Q: Is the iron material completely food safe for direct contact?
A: While the finish is non-toxic, best practice for hygiene is to always use a liner (like a napkin or wax paper) when serving any unwrapped food.
Q: How do I clean it?
A: Simply wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid dishwashers and abrasive sponges, as they can damage the black coating over time.
Q: Will the metal scratch my wooden countertops?
A: The basket is designed with smooth contact points, but as with any metal item, it's always wise to lift it rather than drag it across delicate surfaces.
Q: Can these baskets be stacked for storage?
A: Yes, they are designed to nest inside each other, making them quite space-efficient to store when not in use.
Q: What does 'modular' mean in the description?
A: It means this 280x280x100mm food tray is designed to fit neatly alongside other items from the same Olympia range, allowing you to build a larger, customised display.
Q: Is the basket heavy?
A: No, it weighs just 0.63kg, making it very easy to carry and reposition, even when full.
Q: Can I use it as a cutlery caddy?
A: Absolutely! It's a very popular and stylish way to present cutlery, napkins, and condiment sachets on a table.

It represents a small, smart investment in your brand's image, elevating the perceived value of your food and enhancing the overall customer experience. In a competitive market, it’s these thoughtful details that build a reputation for quality and care.

You’ll often see 'modular' mentioned with displayware, but what does it actually mean for your business? Essentially, it means this basket isn't just a standalone item; it's part of a team. Olympia has designed it to specific dimensions so it fits perfectly next to other items in the same range, like a puzzle piece.
Think of it like building with LEGOs for your buffet. You can place this square basket next to a rectangular one from the same collection, and they'll line up neatly without any awkward gaps. This allows you to create a large, seamless, and professional-looking display that's tailored to your exact counter size. It gives you the flexibility to grow or change your layout without having to replace everything.
