Elia Ribbon Dessert Spoons 18/10 Stainless Steel (12 Pack)

Delivery Information
Price Match
The Elia Ribbon dessert spoon is a polished flatware piece from Elia's Ribbon collection, made from 18/10 stainless steel with a mirror finish and a shaped handle that carries a subtle ribbon-inspired detail along its length. It is a practical, well-proportioned piece designed for use in professional dining environments where presentation and durability both matter.
Heavy-gauge 18/10 stainless steel holds up well through repeated commercial dishwashing cycles without losing its finish or shape. The higher nickel content in 18/10 steel gives improved corrosion resistance compared with lower-grade alloys, which translates to a longer working life in environments where cutlery is turned around several times a day. The mirror polish maintains its appearance with normal machine washing, though prolonged exposure to harsh detergents or salt residue should be avoided, as with any polished flatware.
Key practical points for operators:
- 18/10 stainless steel construction resists corrosion through heavy daily use
- Mirror polish presents well on formal and smart-casual covers alike
- Heavy gauge gives a balanced, comfortable feel that reads as quality to guests
- Sold in a 12-pack, practical for building or supplementing existing covers
- Ribbon range includes matching pieces to complete a cohesive table setting
As with any flatware purchase for a busy operation, it is worth considering total cover count, likely loss rate, and how the style sits alongside your existing table dressing before committing to a quantity. The Ribbon range is available across multiple piece types, so building a matched set is straightforward. If you are equipping a new opening or replacing a full cutlery range, it is worth thinking through quantities carefully to avoid over- or under-ordering.
This spoon suits restaurants, hotels, and event caterers where a refined but unfussy flatware style is appropriate. It works across formal dining and smart-casual settings without feeling out of place in either. If you need a more entry-level option for high-turnover or outdoor catering, or a heavier prestige piece for a premium cover, there are other options in the wider catalogue worth considering.
If you are unsure how the Ribbon range fits your existing table setup or how many packs to order for your cover count, the team is happy to help you work it through.
Frequently asked questions
How many packs do I need for a typical restaurant cover count?
A useful starting point is to hold three to four dessert spoons per cover when accounting for service turnover, dishwasher cycle time, and inevitable losses over time. For a 40-cover restaurant, that typically means four to five 12-packs as a working stock, though high-volume or multi-sitting operations may want to hold more.
Is the Ribbon range suitable for high-turnover casual dining as well as formal settings?
The mirror-polished finish and shaped handle give the Ribbon range a refined appearance that suits formal and smart-casual dining well. For very high-turnover operations where cutlery loss and wear rates are a primary concern, a simpler or more entry-level pattern may offer better value over time — it is worth weighing the style requirement against the operational context.
How should the spoons be cared for to maintain the mirror finish in a commercial environment?
Standard commercial dishwashing is fine for 18/10 stainless steel, but prolonged contact with salt residue, acidic foods, or aggressive detergents can dull or pit a mirror finish over time. Removing cutlery promptly after the wash cycle and ensuring the dishwasher is well maintained will help preserve the finish through regular service use.
