Blue porcelain for professional catering

Blue tableware can be a striking element of the table setting, whilst allowing great freedom in the presentation of dishes. The cool colour contrasts well with light-coloured sauces, fresh greens, warm shades of vegetables, fruit and confectionery decorations.

Fine Dine Flora is ideal for serving:

• starters and small tasting portions,
• main courses,
• pasta, risotto and dishes with sauce,
• salads and bowl-style dishes,
• fish and seafood,
• breakfasts and snacks,
• desserts,
• coffee, cappuccino, tea and other hot drinks.

A colour that enhances the presentation of dishes

Blue tableware can create a striking contrast to ingredients in shades of orange, yellow, red and green. It also showcases dishes with light, creamy colours and those featuring white sauces, cheeses and delicate garnishes.

Flora may be a suitable choice for presenting:

• fish, shellfish and seafood,
• fresh vegetables and herbs,
• dishes featuring pumpkin, carrots or sweet potatoes,
• pasta with light-coloured sauces,
• desserts with fruit, cream or ice cream,
• cakes and small pastries served with coffee.

When choosing tableware, it is worth considering not only the colour of the dish, but also the portion size, the amount of free space needed for decoration and the character of the other elements of the table setting.

Tableware items for different stages of the meal service

The Flora collection was developed as a range comprising tableware for main courses, desserts and hot drinks. This allowed for the creation of a cohesive table setting based on a single colour scheme.

The collection included, amongst other items:

• shallow plates – for starters, breakfasts, desserts and main courses,
• high-rimmed plate – for modern plating and dishes served with sauce,
• pasta plate – for pasta, risotto, cream soups and dishes with a higher liquid content,
• shallow bowl – for salads, soups, bowl-style dishes and desserts,
• cappuccino cup – for milk-based coffees and other hot drinks,
• cappuccino saucer – to create a complete coffee set.

Current availability of individual products may be limited. Before putting together a larger set, please check the stock status of each item.

Fine Dine Flora plates

Plates in various shapes allow you to match the tableware to the type of dish and how it is presented. Classic shallow plates can be used for everyday service, whilst plates with a higher rim offer more options for dishes with sauce and more elaborate presentations.

When choosing a plate, it is worth considering:

• the diameter and usable surface area,
• the size of a standard portion,
• the amount of free space required for plating,
• the height and profile of the rim,
• the colour and texture of the ingredients being served,
• whether the chosen model is stackable.

Pasta plate and shallow bowl

Wider, deeper dishes are ideal for dishes that require sauce or stock to be retained in the centre. They can be used to serve pasta, risotto, cream soups, salads and modern bowl-style compositions.

The blue background beautifully highlights light-coloured sauces, colourful vegetables, fresh herbs and ingredients in warm shades. The wide rim provides extra space for small garnishes and allows for a more relaxed presentation of the dish.

Flora cappuccino cup and saucer

These coffee pieces allow you to incorporate the blue colour scheme into your serving of cappuccino, milky coffees and other hot drinks. The matching saucer provides space for the cup, a teaspoon, sugar and a small accompaniment served with the coffee.

The blue set looks great with:

• steel, gold or black teaspoons,
• light-coloured napkins,
• a wooden tabletop or tray,
• clear water glasses,
• cream or white porcelain,
• small pastries and desserts in warm colours.

How can you combine Flora with other tableware?

The collection does not have to be used exclusively as a matching set. The blue elements can serve as a colour accent when paired with more neutral tableware.

Fine Dine Flora can be paired with:

• white porcelain – to create a fresh, contrasting table setting,
• cream-coloured porcelain – for a softer blend of warm and cool tones,
• grey or black tableware – in modern and more striking arrangements,
• wooden accessories – which add warmth to the cool colour of the tableware,
• clear glass – creating a light and neutral complement,
• gold or copper cutlery – for a stronger colour contrast.

Porcelain for restaurants, cafés and hotels

Fine Dine Flora can be used in establishments that wish to make their presentation of food and drinks stand out with colourful tableware.

The collection is suitable for, amongst others:

• à la carte restaurants,
• hotels and hotel restaurants,
• cafés and patisseries,
• bistros and casual dining establishments,
• seafood and Mediterranean restaurants,
• establishments serving signature cuisine,
• catering companies,
• parties and special events.

Dishwasher-safe porcelain

Fine Dine Flora tableware is dishwasher-safe, making it ideal for everyday use in professional catering. Items should be placed securely in the dishwasher, ensuring that their edges do not come into contact with other items.

To minimise the risk of damage, it is advisable to:

• select baskets appropriate for the dimensions of the tableware,
• not overload the dishwasher,
• avoid the rims knocking against other items,
• use detergents designed for catering tableware,
• regularly check the condition of the rims and surfaces,
• dry the tableware thoroughly before stacking it.

Suitable for use in a microwave oven

Fine Dine Flora porcelain is suitable for use in microwave ovens. This makes it easier to reheat selected dishes and drinks without having to transfer them to another container.

Once reheating is complete, both the contents and the porcelain itself may be hot. The dish should be removed carefully, using a suitable handle or oven glove if necessary.

Stacking selected items

Selected items from the Flora collection are designed to be stacked. Stacking helps make better use of shelf space, streamlines the preparation of tableware for serving and makes it easier to organise after washing.

Please check the specific product page to confirm whether an item is stackable. Tableware should be stacked securely, without forming piles that are too high and without placing excessive weight on the items at the bottom.
