Product Description
The Steelite Simplicity White fruit bowl is a 165mm round bowl from one of the most widely used casual dining ranges in UK hospitality. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it offers a clean, neutral presentation that works across a broad range of menu styles — from hotel breakfast fruit service and café counter use through to pub dining and bistro settings.
In practice, the Simplicity range earns its place in busy operations through its reliability rather than any single standout feature. The alumina vitrified ceramic body is noticeably robust under daily service conditions, and the stone rim finish helps mask the minor edge wear that accumulates with continuous dishwasher cycling and stacking. It retains heat well enough to support warm service applications, and its straightforward shape makes it practical to stack, store, and rotate through the wash at volume.
Key operational characteristics worth noting:
- Alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles repeated dishwasher cycles reliably
- Microwave and freezer safe, supporting flexible food preparation and service workflows
- Stone rim finish reduces the visual impact of edge chips over time
- Good heat retention helps maintain food temperatures during service
- Neutral white glaze works across most menu styles without visual conflict
These bowls are sold in packs of 36, which suits the typical opening stock requirements for a mid-sized café, hotel breakfast operation, or pub kitchen. For very high-volume sites — large hotel restaurants or contract catering environments with heavy daily throughput — it is worth considering whether a larger initial quantity would better support your rotation and breakage allowance.
The Simplicity White range is a sensible choice for operators who need dependable everyday crockery with a clean presentation and no unnecessary complexity. If you are specifying crockery across multiple covers or want guidance on quantities relative to your service volume, the team is happy to help you work through the numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions
- As a general guide, most operators plan for two to three times their seated cover count to allow for crockery in use, in the wash, and in reserve. For a 40-cover café, two packs of 36 would represent a reasonable starting point, though sites with longer service periods or limited dishwasher capacity may want additional stock. It is worth talking through your specific service pattern before ordering.
- Yes, the Simplicity White range is commonly used in hotel breakfast environments. The alumina vitrified ceramic construction handles the repeated thermal cycling and heavy dishwasher use that characterises hotel breakfast operations, and the stone rim finish helps the crockery stay presentable over a long service life. For very large properties with several hundred covers, it is worth planning your stock quantities carefully to maintain adequate rotation.
- Steelite provides a lifetime edge chip warranty on this product, which covers chips to the rim under normal commercial use conditions. This is a manufacturer warranty and does not cover breakage from mishandling or impact damage. If you have questions about how the warranty applies to your operation, the team can advise.
