Price Match

This 35ml sauce ladle from the Le Buffet range by Mermaid is a compact, single-portion serving tool designed for controlled sauce and dressing service. The stainless steel bowl and heat-resistant black handle make it a practical choice for front-of-house buffet use as well as pass and plating work in the kitchen.

At 35ml, it is sized for small, consistent portions — well suited to sauce boats, bain-maries, and table service where portion accuracy and presentation matter. The black handle provides a firm grip during service and helps staff distinguish sauce ladles from stock or soup equivalents when multiple sizes are in use.

  • Stainless steel construction for durability and ease of cleaning
  • Heat-resistant handle suitable for use alongside hot service equipment
  • Dishwasher-safe for efficient turnaround between service periods
  • Compact 35ml bowl suited to single-portion sauce and dressing service
  • Lightweight at 86g — comfortable for extended front-of-house use

As a simple, low-maintenance utensil, there is little to consider beyond ensuring the capacity suits your intended portioning. If you regularly serve heavier sauces or need larger volumes per portion, a 60ml or 90ml ladle from the same range may be a better fit. For very high-volume operations, having multiples in rotation is standard practice.

If you are building out a full complement of serving ladles and spoodles for a new venue or refresh, the team is happy to advise on sizes and quantities to suit your menu and service style.

Frequently asked questions

Is 35ml the right capacity for general sauce service?

It depends on your menu and portion expectations. At 35ml, this ladle is best suited to light sauces, dressings, or gravies served as a small accompaniment. If your dishes call for a more generous sauce pour, a 60ml or 90ml ladle would give you better portion control without requiring multiple passes.

Can this ladle be used directly in a hot bain-marie or sauce pan?

The handle is rated as heat-resistant, which makes it practical for use alongside hot service equipment and shallow bain-maries. It is not designed for direct contact with high-heat cooking surfaces, so for deep saucepan work a longer-handled ladle would be more appropriate.

How many should a typical buffet or restaurant operation keep in service?

For a buffet operation, having at least two or three per sauce station allows rotation through the dishwasher without interrupting service. In a restaurant setting, the right quantity depends on your number of covers and turnaround speed — the team can advise based on your service format.
