Expert Review and  Insights

The APS double decker is a real workhorse for modern buffet service. It hits that sweet spot between elegant presentation and  day-to-day practicality. The fact it's a non-powered unit is a huge advantage for event caterers or cafés with limited plug sockets. It’s all about maximising visual appeal and  keeping food safe without any fuss.

Hannah Cartwright – Buffet Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Pro: Superb space efficiency; it offers two tiers in one compact footprint.
  • Con: Relies on pre-frozen cooling packs, not for all-day continuous chilling.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Garden Room Café in Bath was struggling with their weekend brunch service. They needed a way to improve their buffet presentation and  keep delicate pastries and  sandwiches chilled safely during the busy rush without rearranging their entire counter.

"Our old platters just weren't cutting it. Food would get warm, and  it looked messy by midday. The APS roll top buffet chiller instantly changed the whole look and  feel of our service, making it look far more professional."

Robert Finch – Manager

The café saw a marked reduction in food spoilage and  received numerous positive customer comments on the upgraded, professional setup.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • For best results, freeze the cooling packs flat for at least 8-12 hours before use.
  • Once frozen solid, place the four packs into their designated slots in the base unit.
  • Carefully place the stainless steel trays on top, ensuring they sit level.
  • Arrange your chilled food on the trays and  close the roll-top lids until you're ready to serve.

Keeping It Going

  • After each use, wash the stainless steel trays and  plastic lids with warm, soapy water.
  • Always use a food-safe sanitiser on the trays before reloading with fresh food.
  • Wipe down the base unit with a damp cloth and  dry thoroughly.
  • Store the clean cooling packs in the freezer so they are always ready for the next service.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Buffet Display

Need a hand choosing? Here are a few key things to consider when you're looking for a new commercial buffet display tray.

Size & Capacity

Consider your counter space and  how much food you plan to display. A double decker model like this CB794 refrigerated display is a fantastic space-saver, doubling your display area on the same footprint.

Power or No Power?

Powered units offer constant, all-day cooling, but passive models with ice packs give you unbeatable portability for events, functions, or areas without convenient sockets.

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the industry standard for a reason: it's durable, hygienic, and  looks incredibly professional. It also conducts cold effectively from the ice packs below.

Lids & Covers

Roll-top or hinged lids are essential for self-service environments. They protect food from airborne contaminants and  help maintain the cool temperature for longer.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for simple designs with removable trays and  parts. The less time your team spends cleaning, the more time they can spend serving customers.

How Do The Cooling Packs Keep Food So Fresh?

Ever wondered how this unit keeps food chilled without a single cable? It’s all down to a clever system sometimes called 'passive refrigeration'. Think of it like a high-tech, reusable ice system for your entire buffet. You simply freeze the four included cooling packs, then slot them neatly into the base beneath the stainless steel trays. Stainless steel is an excellent conductor of cold, so it draws the chill up from the packs and  transfers it directly and  evenly across the surface your food is sitting on. This keeps everything at a safe, fresh temperature for hours. It’s a simple, powerful system that gives you the freedom to set up your roll top cold food display anywhere, without ever being tethered to a plug socket.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Hotel Breakfast Buffets: Perfect for elegantly displaying continental breakfast items like pastries, cheeses, and  cold cuts for guests.
  • Event Caterers: A portable, stylish solution for serving chilled canapés or desserts at weddings and  functions.
  • Café & Deli Counters: Great for showcasing sandwiches, salads, and  cakes right where customers can see them.
  • Corporate Hospitality: Ideal for keeping snacks and  fruit fresh and  presentable during all-day meetings or conferences.
