Souffle Dishes and Ramekins

Souffle Dishes and Ramekins are essential oven-to-table pieces for baking and serving individual portions, sides and sauces in professional kitchens. This range includes classic round ramekins, oval dishes and deeper souffle bowls in a choice of sizes to suit starters, desserts and accompaniments. Ideal for restaurants, hotels, cafes and gastropubs, they help you plate consistently while elevating presentation. Made from robust materials such as glass, porcelain, stoneware, enamel and cast iron, they offer excellent heat retention, reliable performance and long service life in busy Irish hospitality venues.

How to choose the right Souffle Dishes and Ramekins

• Match capacity to menu items, from small ramekins for sauces and dips to larger dishes for baked sides and desserts.
• Consider material: glass for visibility, porcelain and stoneware for classic presentation, or cast iron for maximum heat retention.
• Check oven, microwave and dishwasher compatibility to suit your cooking and service workflow.
• Choose shapes and colours that complement your existing crockery and overall table presentation.
• Look for stackable designs if storage space is limited in your kitchen or bar pass.
• Assess durability requirements for high-volume restaurants, hotels or contract catering versus lighter cafe use.

Care and maintenance

• Allow hot souffle dishes and ramekins to cool gradually before washing to reduce thermal shock and prevent cracking.
• Use non-abrasive detergents and soft cloths or brushes to protect glazed and enamel surfaces.
• Avoid metal utensils where possible to minimise scratching and preserve a clean presentation.
• Check regularly for chips or cracks and remove damaged items from service for food safety and guest comfort.
• Stack carefully, following manufacturer guidance, to prevent rim damage and extend product life.
• For cast iron pieces, dry thoroughly after washing and season lightly if recommended by the manufacturer.

Pair these dishes with complementary crockery, table presentation pieces and oven to tableware to create a cohesive look across your menu.
