Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
'Waffles & Waves', a popular seaside dessert kiosk in Brighton, needed to speed up their service during the hectic summer season without compromising on the quality of their toppings.
"We were making our own chocolate sauce, and it was just too time-consuming and inconsistent during a rush. Switching to the Simply 1kg bottle was brilliant. The flavour is spot on, and the squeezy bottle means our staff can serve customers twice as fast. The customers love it, and it's made our lives so much easier."
Tom Williams – Owner, Waffles & Waves
The switch resulted in a 30% reduction in average order time for their signature chocolate-drizzled waffles, directly increasing their capacity during peak hours.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, give the bottle a good shake to ensure the sauce is perfectly mixed.
- Snip the end of the nozzle carefully to your desired opening size – a smaller hole is better for fine drizzles.
- No need for refrigeration, simply place it in your service area ready for action.
Keeping It Going
- Always store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Wipe the nozzle clean with a damp cloth after each service to prevent clogging.
- Ensure the cap is screwed on tightly to maintain freshness.
- Check the best-before date on the bottle to ensure you're always serving the best quality product.

Seeing 'Gluten, Nut, and Dairy Free' on the label might seem like a simple dietary note, but for a commercial kitchen, it's a huge operational advantage. Think of it as a built-in safety net.

It means your team can confidently add a delicious finishing touch to a dessert without triple-checking ingredients or worrying about causing an allergic reaction. This not only makes your menu more accessible to a wider range of customers but also simplifies your kitchen processes, reduces waste, and protects your reputation. It's less about what's left out, and more about the peace of mind that's added in.
