Clingfilm, Foil & Parchment Paper for Catering
Clingfilm, foil and parchment paper. You might think they’re basically the same, but they’re not. Clingfilm seals cold stuff. Foil handles heat without falling apart. Parchment stops baked goods sticking. Actually, let me clarify that – clingfilm will literally melt if you put it near anything hot. People do this constantly.
Foil costs more per roll but it won’t destroy mid-service. You’re still figuring this out, but sheets work better than rolls for bakery work because you’re not measuring and cutting when slammed. The thing is, buy catering widths. Retail rolls don’t cover gastronorms and staff waste time patching gaps instead of working the pass.

Trade Insight
Waste happens at the dispenser. Blunt cutters mean staff tear off twice what they need. A proper wall-mounted cutter pays for itself in weeks. But here’s what surprised us, most kitchens don’t actually measure the waste until they fit a decent cutter.
