What are the latest catering crockery trends?

Crockery is playing the leading role on our tables and it’s all about table presentation!

Plates are there to enhance the food presentation and support the restaurant’s concept.  

Catering Crockery trends at the moment are colourful, rustic, and full of textures.  The common thought is that food is the most important thing on the table no matter the plate, this is absolutely not true!  All of your senses have to work together and all of them will influence our whole dining experience.

People think that chefs who want to focus entirely on the food still prefer white tableware, but things have changed.  More and more chefs are interested in unique and colourful restaurant crockery for their food creations, especially now in an era of Social Media savvy individuals.  Presentation is everything to help enhance the customers dining experience and compete with their friends on who’s going to #instafood the best restaurant pics of their most gorgeous looking meal then tweet and share it on their favourite social media platforms.

Colourful Crockery

Coloured  crockery  seem to gain more and more ground against Classic Whiteware.  Many chefs who want to give a more modern tone to their plates prefer colourful catering crockery.  We find them mostly in Gastro-Pubs and Cafes as well as trendy Restaurants.  Contrasting colours allows them to offer a more vibrant and slightly relaxed touch to their dining experience, brands such as Porcelite have a fab colour chart available.

Rustic and Textured plates

Rustic style plates and textured crockery seem to be gaining ground over standard Whiteware with new restaurant openings offering a gourmet fine dining menu.  They can help to add the “wow” factor for places that really want to stand out for their table presentation.  Brands such as Rustico Stoneware Ironstone offer some original pieces as well as Dudson Harvest for a rustic and organic inspired menu.

That’s why we pay a lot of attention to the crockery we use to present them” says Corrine, owner of Gourmandises French Patisserie in Cambridge.  We are loving her awesome desert, displayed on Dudson EVO Granite Plate.

Rullos Pizzeria – Camden Town

Salvatore, owner of Rullos Pizzeria in London believes that crockery is playing one of the leading roles in his restaurant. “Plates should be welcoming, warm and friendly to support the concept of our restaurant which is in between the borders of casual with fine dining. This is why we pay a lot of attention to our crockery. They are there to support the idea behind our dishes. Our Italian cuisine with fresh and simple ingredients are matching perfectly with our Dudson Harvest Plates”.
