Steelite Must Haves Black Melamine Ramekins 60ml (12 Pack)

Delivery Information
Price Match
These black melamine ramekins from Steelite are a practical smallware for front-of-house service, buffets, and casual dining. At 60ml they are well sized for sauces, dressings, condiments, and small accompaniments, and the black finish works cleanly against a wide range of plate and tray presentations.
Melamine is a common choice in hospitality environments where standard ceramic ramekins carry too high a breakage risk. These resist chipping and cracking under the kind of repeated handling that comes with high-turnover table service or self-serve buffet stations, and they will not stain easily from tomato-based or strongly pigmented sauces. Being fully dishwasher safe keeps them moving efficiently through a busy pot wash without requiring special handling.
- Practical for sauces, dressings, dips, and condiment service
- Resistant to chipping, cracking, and staining under regular commercial use
- Dishwasher safe for quick turnaround during service
- Consistent black finish suits a wide range of presentation styles
- Supplied in a pack of 12, suited to setting up a section or refreshing existing stock
It is worth noting that melamine is not suitable for microwave use or direct oven use, so these are a front-of-house and service item rather than a preparation or heating vessel. They are best suited to ambient or cold accompaniments rather than hot sauces held at temperature over extended periods.
These ramekins suit casual dining operations, pub kitchens, cafés, and buffet or banqueting setups where durability and ease of replacement matter more than fine-dining presentation. If you are looking for a ceramic equivalent or need a larger capacity, it is worth having a conversation about what else is available across the range.
If you are unsure whether these are the right fit for your service style or volume, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
Frequently asked questions
Are these ramekins suitable for serving hot sauces or keeping condiments warm?
They are best suited to ambient or cold accompaniments. Melamine is not microwave or oven safe, and is not designed to hold hot sauces at temperature over extended service periods — for that application a ceramic or stainless steel ramekin would be a more appropriate choice.
How do these hold up in a high-volume kitchen environment?
Melamine is specifically chosen for busy hospitality environments because it withstands the repeated handling, stacking, and dishwasher cycles that would cause a higher breakage rate with ceramic. These are a practical choice for pub kitchens, café counters, and buffet setups where throughput is high and replacement costs need to stay manageable.
Is a pack of 12 enough for a typical section setup?
That depends on your covers, your pot wash cycle time, and how many turns you expect during a service. For a small operation running one sitting, 12 will often suffice, but busier sites or those running continuous buffet service typically need two or three packs in rotation to keep supply comfortable. If you are unsure, we can help you work out a sensible quantity.
