I like the shape of them and used them to even eat soup, sure I need two helping when I use them for that because they are on the small size for serving. I find them easier than the deep bowls for soup. Colourful and gorgeous to look at.Perfect for individual Mac' n' Cheese...Used them on Hob with gentle heat for Piri Piri Prawns... Totally Oven Proof!Great Buy!These little dishes are super value. Really good size, useful tapas dishes. Nice looking, colours are better in real life than the image. So nice to handle and in the table. Great value fir the cost.I bought these because I was looking for some avocado dishes which were very popular in the 80’s and were also good for tapas. These work well and although I haven’t used them for avocados yet they have been used a lot for olives etc. I would recommend them. (Dishwasher safe)One of them cracked instantly when placed into microwave which was quite weird. I think it had a crack when I received it. But I did not realise. Rest of them are ok and good to use. These are cute and colourfulOrdered these dishes to take to a dinner party as I was supplying the starter. They were perfect size and looked lovely when placed on coloured plates. Not only did they look good but my starter tasted great ☺️They will ne perfect for tapas too, I can see that they will get lots of use
