Space and time are probably the scarcest ingredients in any kitchen so Plate Spacers are specially designed to save these valuable commodities. Plates can be prepared in advance and piled on top of each other, saving time and helping to avoid a cluttered working area. Plate Spacers are plastic blocks that can be placed at three different sides of a prepared plate. These three blocks offer space for the prepared food, and support for the plate above. Every block has a strong grip thanks to a rubber layer on both its top and bottom sides. Starters, sushi, carpaccio, soups or desserts are simply piled and set aside till the moment of serving. Warming or cooling is also no problem. The piled dishes can be warmed in the microwave or oven (max. 100°C), and cooled in the refrigerator or freezer. This way Plate Spacers save a world of space and time. Material: plastic with rubber. Packed in a set of nine (suitable to pile four plates). Individual space between each plate: 2.8 cm. The blocks are suitable for use in refrigerator, freezer, microwave, oven (max. 100°C), regenerate oven (max 140°C) and dishwasher.
