Can I use these for hot foods?

These utensils are specifically designed for serving pastries and desserts, not for cooking or heavy-duty food preparation.

How should I store the set?

Store in a lined box or a drawer organizer to prevent the pieces from rubbing against other metal utensils.

Does the blue pattern fade over time?

When cared for properly through gentle hand washing and avoiding abrasive chemicals, the pattern is designed to retain its brilliance.

Immediately dry the pieces with a microfiber cloth instead of allowing them to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Aynsley Archive Blue Pastry Set, store the pieces in a dry, safe environment where they will not be scratched by stainless steel utensils. While the items are designed for frequent use, they are not suited for abrasive scrubbing or high-heat dishwasher cycles. Always hand wash the pieces in warm, soapy water using a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. Immediately dry with a soft lint-free towel to prevent water spotting on the fine china surfaces. Avoid using the knife on overly hard surfaces to prevent chipping or dulling of the decorative finish.
