Steelite Taste Spice Plates 305mm (Pack of 12)

The Steelite Taste Spice plate is a 305mm flat plate from Steelite's Taste collection, designed for casual and informal dining settings in professional catering environments. It sits at a practical size for main courses, open sandwiches, and sharing-style presentations, and is sold in a pack of twelve — a sensible quantity for building or topping up a service set.

Steelite manufacture these plates from alumina vitrified ceramic, which gives the body a notably higher density and chip resistance than standard vitrified china. In a busy kitchen environment, where plates cycle through dishwashers multiple times a day and are stacked and moved constantly, that additional body strength translates directly into a longer working life and fewer replacements. The glaze is formulated to resist staining and thermal shock, which matters in a service context where plates may go from a hot pass to a cold stack in short order.

From an operational standpoint, the Taste range works well across a broad range of covers — from relaxed all-day dining and café operations through to more structured restaurant service where a cleaner, contemporary presentation is preferred. The white finish keeps plating flexible across different menus and styles.

• Alumina vitrified body offers stronger resistance to chipping and cracking than standard china
• Thermal shock resistant glaze suits rapid cycling between hot and cold environments
• Stain-resistant surface helps maintain a clean appearance through heavy service
• White finish provides a neutral base suited to most plating styles
• Lifetime edge chip warranty from Steelite reflects confidence in the build quality

If you are building out a full cover set or matching to other pieces within the Taste collection, it is worth considering your service volumes and likely breakage rates when deciding on quantities. We are happy to talk through what makes sense for your operation.
