I love the design but was also pleased to see they hold up well in the dishwasher since I use them daily as tea bag saucers.Perfect for individual dippingWill treasure for a long timeI bought these little dishes to use for dipping sauces, but I found that they are also super convenient when measuring small amounts for baking. I thought I would only use them occasionally but am finding that I am using them a few times a week. They seem very sturdy and are easy to clean. Very happy with my purchase.When I opened the package at first I was worried hmm mayyyybe too small? But then I made an AMAZING dinner and they held my portions perfectly! Not too much but just enough so I could enjoy my Japanese style dinner. Works for my breakfasts too! These will get A LOT of use!My kittens love their new food dishes.I use these to hold tea bags or sauces and they are so darn cute! The perfect tiny plate for whatever you need them for. They are deep enough to hold a sauce but not too "bowl-like"These were a present. My friend loved them. Not only to hold tea bags but to hold small amounts of condiments.
