The Olympia Kristallon range consistently delivers on its promise of practicality, and  these ramekins are no exception.

  • Heat Sensitivity: Strictly for serving; they are not suitable for oven or microwave use.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Squid, a popular seaside bistro in Penzance, Cornwall, was constantly replacing its ceramic dip pots due to chipping from heavy use and  dishwasher cycles. They needed a more robust but equally presentable alternative.

"We were throwing money away on chipped crockery every single week. These melamine dishes look the part but are tough as anything. It's tidied up our presentation and  saved us a small fortune on replacements."

Robert Green – Owner, The Salty Squid

Since switching, the bistro has reduced its ramekin replacement budget by over 80% and  improved service efficiency with the lightweight dishes.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, unbox and  inspect each ramekin for any unlikely signs of damage during transit.
  • Give them a thorough wash in a dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water before their first use.
  • That's it! They are now ready to be filled with your delicious sauces, dips, and  sides.

Keeping It Going

  • These ramekins are fully commercial dishwasher safe for fast and  easy cleaning.
  • To maintain the pristine finish, avoid using harsh, abrasive scourers or steel wool.
  • Crucially, do not use them in a conventional oven or a microwave, as melamine is not heatproof.
  • They stack neatly for compact storage, helping to keep your kitchen organised.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Ramekins & Dip Pots

Need a hand picking the perfect pots for your portions? Here are a few tips to guide your choice.

Material Matters

Choose melamine for its outstanding durability in high-turnover settings. For oven-to-table dishes like a crème brûlée, you'll need to opt for porcelain or ceramic.

Capacity is Key

This 43ml size is perfect for individual sauces, dips, and  butter. For larger sides like slaw or beans, consider browsing for options in the 90ml to 120ml range.

Colour & Contrast

A white melamine ramekin 63mm provides a classic, neutral canvas that makes the colour of your food stand out, creating an appealing, professional look.

Shape & Stackability

A simple, round shape is incredibly versatile and  fits with any decor. Ensure your choice is stackable to maximise precious shelf space in your kitchen.

Look for Resistance

For any commercial tableware, 'chip resistant', 'scratch resistant', and  'stain resistant' are key phrases that signify it's built to last and  will look good for longer.

Why Melamine is a Smarter Choice for Service

Ever wondered what makes melamine so special for a professional kitchen? Think of it as the best of both worlds. It gives you the clean, solid, and  professional appearance of traditional ceramic, which customers love, but it has a secret weapon: incredible durability.

It's resistant to the knocks, drops, and  scrapes that are just a normal part of a busy service. This means you spend less time clearing up broken shards, less money on re-ordering stock, and  you never have to worry about handing a customer a chipped dish. It's a simple switch that brings peace of mind and  protects your bottom line.

Who Should Buy This?
