Serving Spoons

Serving Spoons are essential utensils for portioning and serving food in busy commercial kitchens, canteens and buffet lines. This range includes solid and slotted spoons, buffet serving spoons, colour coded options and heat resistant models to suit every service style. Ideal for restaurants, hotels, cafes and contract caterers, they help you plate consistently, maintain hygiene and speed up service. Hard wearing materials and ergonomic handles ensure reliable performance through daily use.

• Solid and slotted serving spoons for precise portioning of vegetables, sides, sauces and mains.
• Buffet serving spoons designed for self service counters, salad bars and hot holding units.
• Heat resistant serving spoons and ladles suitable for use in hot pans, bains marie and cooking pots.
• Black handled and colour coded spoons to support food safety and allergen or area segregation.
• Stainless steel and advanced composite options for strength, hygiene and long service life.
• Various lengths and bowl sizes to suit deep gastronorm pans, chafing dishes and large pots.

How to choose the right Serving Spoons

• Match spoon length to your cookware and service style, choosing longer handles for deep pots and gastronorm pans.
• Decide between solid and slotted bowls depending on whether you are serving liquids, sauces or drained vegetables and sides.
• Select durable stainless steel or high performance composite materials for heavy commercial use and easy cleaning.
• Consider colour coded or black handled spoons to support HACCP systems and clear food safety procedures.
• Choose buffet style serving spoons for front of house displays and more robust kitchen spoons for back of house prep.
• Assess expected service volume so you can pick heavier duty models for high turnover restaurants and canteens.

Care and maintenance

• Wash serving spoons promptly after service, following manufacturer guidance on dishwasher suitability.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that can scratch stainless steel or damage composite finishes.
• Inspect handles and joints regularly for looseness, cracks or wear and replace any damaged utensils immediately.
• Store spoons in utensil racks or containers to keep them off worktops and reduce risk of contamination.
• Keep colour coded spoons separated by area or food type to maintain your HACCP and allergen controls.
• Periodically check for bent bowls or warped handles that could affect portion control or safe handling.
