What makes dessert forks different from the other forks in my cutlery tray?
Dessert forks have a special shape and are smaller than the usual cutlery. They also only have three tines. These are often slightly broader so that a bite-sized piece of cake can safely balance on top. In addition, the tines’ broader shape makes it easier to cut into a piece of cake or pie.
Why does a dessert fork only have three tines?
You generally only use a fork to eat a piece of cake, and not a knife. This means that the dessert fork must combine both. The three tines of the dessert fork are therefore relatively longer and broader, in order to be able to cut into a cake and hold it on the fork at the same time. In addition, the tines are pointed enough to skewer even firmer cakes.
Stainless steel dessert forks: The advantages
Perhaps you can still remember a time when guests were hosted in the best room for afternoon tea and the silver cutlery was brought out. Silver looks exquisite, but it has some disadvantages in terms of material; for example, it can tarnish quickly. The cleaning effort is correspondingly high.
The advantages of 18/10 stainless steel forks
High-quality appearance
You can buy stainless steel dessert forks in either a high-gloss or matt finish. Both versions appear in a very elegant design and go perfectly with the rest of the stainless steel cutlery set.
Corrosion resistance
Stainless steel is corrosion-resistant. You can use your stainless steel dessert forks for many years without their shine fading or their material quality declining.
Dishwasher-safe
Dessert forks are used frequently, so it is convenient if they can simply be placed in the dishwasher afterwards.
Hygiene
Stainless steel has a very smooth surface. Dirt can be removed cleanly and completely.
Rules of etiquette: Where should a dessert fork actually be placed on the coffee table?
If you have invited visitors round and want to set the coffee table correctly, then each dinnerware and cutlery item has its place. Place the cake plate in the center of the place setting, and the saucer with the coffee cup to the right above this place setting. The dessert fork is to the right of the plate with the handle pointing towards the seated person. You can also place the cake fork above the plate or offer it to guests wrapped in a napkin.
