Appetizer & Dessert Plates

Ideas for Appetizer Plates and Dessert Plates

Serve up tasty starters and scrumptious sweets on modern appetizer and dessert plates. Perfect for small dishes, appetizer plates are contemporary picks that bring style to casual gatherings or larger events. Finish your meal by serving cakes, pie dishes, cookies and more on portion-perfect dessert plates. These pieces' small size makes them versatile additions to the dinnerware collection, too. Even when not serving hors d'oeuvres or a sugary treat after the meal, they are the ideal place to put sides during the main course. Additionally, they can be used for the holiday season. Utilize them as Thanksgiving plates to serve cornbread, mashed potatoes and delicious holiday appetizers. Either way get creative with how you utilize them in your dining room and beyond.

Plate Sets and Individual Designs

Choose from appetizer and dessert plates in solid neutrals or colorful patterns and designs. White dessert plates, for example, complement any dinnerware or kitchen linens, while bolder designs add a modern and eclectic touch to the meal. Whatever shade you decide on, the plates elevate your food's presentation. For an ideal gift, select a dinnerware set with four to twelve pieces. They give the dining table a cohesive feeling, and are especially convenient for those looking to significantly expand their dish collection.
