Steelite Taste Essence Bowls 202mm White (Pack of 24)

Product No: V9478

Product Description

The Steelite Taste Essence bowl is an 8-inch white ceramic bowl from Steelite's Taste collection, designed for everyday use in professional foodservice environments. Made from alumina vitrified ceramic, it offers a denser, more durable body than standard vitrified china, which is why it's commonly specified by operators who need crockery to perform reliably through continuous service cycles.

In a busy kitchen or front-of-house setting, crockery takes a great deal of punishment — constant handling, stacking, commercial dishwasher cycles, and the thermal stress of moving between hot and cold environments. The Taste Essence bowl is built with this in mind. The glaze is formulated to resist staining and crazing over time, and the body itself handles thermal shock without the surface degradation that can affect lower-specification pieces. Steelite backs this with a lifetime edge chip warranty, which reflects genuine confidence in the product's construction.

The 202mm diameter makes this a versatile piece. It works well for:

  • Soup and broth courses in formal or casual dining
  • Pasta, rice, and noodle dishes where a broad base is useful
  • Sharing portions and small plate presentations
  • Breakfast service — cereals, porridge, fruit

It's worth noting that this bowl is sold in packs of 24, which suits most mid-sized operations looking to build or refresh a service set. For very high-volume sites — large hotels, contract catering, or venues running multiple covers simultaneously — it may be worth considering larger quantity orders or supplementary packs to maintain adequate stock through breakages.

If you're building a full table setting or matching this bowl to other pieces in the Taste collection, or if you're unsure how many covers this pack will support for your service style, we're happy to talk it through.
