Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Lavender Path Bistro in Canterbury was looking to replace its collection of mismatched and  worn-out cutlery. They needed a uniform set that reflected the quality of their locally-sourced menu but wouldn't break the bank.

"We wanted our tabletops to look as good as the food we serve. The old forks were letting the side down. These Olympia Bead forks have a lovely weight and  a brilliant shine that our regulars noticed immediately. They just feel right."

Robert Green – Proprietor

The bistro noted a marked increase in positive online reviews mentioning the 'lovely atmosphere and  details' following the upgrade.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always wash and  dry new cutlery thoroughly before its first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
  • Avoid leaving cutlery to soak in water for extended periods, especially with salty or acidic food residue.
  • If using a dishwasher, place forks tines-up in the cutlery basket for the most effective clean.

Keeping It Going

  • Dry cutlery promptly after washing to prevent water spots and  maintain its high-polish finish.
  • A quick buff with a soft, dry microfibre cloth will restore its shine before service.
  • Store in a clean, dry, and  organised cutlery tray or container to prevent scratches.
  • Never use abrasive scouring pads or harsh chemicals, as these will damage the polished surface.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cutlery

Not sure which range is the perfect fit for your tables? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Material Matters

18/0 steel offers fantastic durability and  value, while 18/10 provides superior rust resistance. Your choice depends on budget and  usage intensity.

Weight and  Balance

Consider the 'feel' of the cutlery in hand. Heavier, well-balanced pieces often feel more luxurious to your guests.

Design and  Finish

Match your cutlery to your brand's style. The beaded design is a timeless classic, perfect for traditional and  modern settings alike.

Sizing Up 'Par' Levels

Always order more than you think you need. Aim for 2-3 of each piece per seat to cover what's in use, in the wash, and  any potential losses.

The Magnetic Question

If your kitchen uses a magnetic cutlery saving system on its bins, you must choose 18/10 cutlery. This 18/0 fork is not magnetic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this cutlery fully commercial dishwasher safe?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Olympia C128 range is designed to withstand the rigours of frequent commercial dishwashing.

Q: What does '18/0 Stainless Steel' actually mean?

A: It refers to the metal's composition: 18% chromium for hardness and  rust resistance, and  0% nickel. It's a very strong and  durable material.

Q: How many dessert forks are in a single pack?

A: These are sold in boxes of 12, making it easy to calculate how many you need to order for your establishment.

Q: Can I use this for starters as well as desserts?

A: Of course. While sized as a dessert fork, its versatile design makes it perfectly suitable for starters, appetisers, or small plates.

Q: Are these forks likely to bend under regular use?

A: No, they are forged from a solid piece of stainless steel and  are built for commercial durability, resisting bending and  damage.

Q: Does the bead pattern handle trap food particles?

A: The design is shallow and  smooth. Standard commercial washing is more than enough to keep the handles perfectly clean and  hygienic.

Q: What is the finish like in person?

A: It's a high polish finish, which means it is very bright, reflective, and  shiny, giving it a premium and  professional appearance.

Q: Is the Olympia C128 dessert fork part of a larger collection?

A: Yes, the Bead design is a popular and  extensive collection, allowing you to create a fully matching set of table knives, forks, and  spoons.

What's the Deal with 18/0 Stainless Steel?

Ever seen the numbers 18/0 or 18/10 on cutlery and  wondered what they mean? It’s simpler than you think. The numbers refer to the percentages of chromium and  nickel in the steel alloy. This bead dessert fork is made from 18/0 stainless steel, which means it contains 18% chromium and  0% nickel. The chromium provides hardness and  stain resistance, which is vital in a commercial kitchen. The absence of nickel makes it a more cost-effective option and  gives it a bright, silvery shine. Think of it like a trusted work van: it’s incredibly reliable, strong, and  does the job perfectly day-in, day-out. While 18/10 (with 10% nickel) offers a little extra corrosion resistance, 18/0 provides fantastic durability and  value, making it a brilliant choice for high-volume establishments.
