Sundae Dishes

Stock the right glassware and your dessert menu sells itself. We supply sundae dishes wholesale to cafés, restaurants, hotels, and dessert venues across the UK – commercial-grade, dishwasher-safe glass in a full range of formats, available by the case.

Browse goblets, coupes, bowls, and tall knickerbocker glory glasses from trusted brands including Arcoroc, Artis, Libbey, and La Rochere. All part of our wider Hot Beverage & Dessert glassware range.

Sundae & Dessert Glassware Styles

We stock 27 lines across five formats. Every piece is glass, every piece is dishwasher-safe, and every piece is built for the demands of a commercial kitchen.

Sundae Goblets & Footed Glasses

The classic choice for ice cream service. Footed goblets lift the dessert off the table, improve presentation, and give your team a secure grip during plating. We carry 9 goblet lines, ranging from compact 125ml portions up to generous 400ml showstoppers.

Standout options include the Arcoroc Palmier (220ml and 370ml), the Arcoroc Quadro (360ml), and the Borgonovo London Sundae Glass (400ml/14oz). Case quantities run from 6 to 24 units depending on the line.

Coupe Sundae Dishes

A single coupe line in the range – broad, shallow, and ideal for plated desserts where presentation is the priority. Works equally well for sorbets, mousse, and fruit compotes. If your menu leans towards refined plated desserts rather than stacked sundaes, the coupe format is worth considering.

Glass Dessert Bowls

Five bowl lines for venues that want a more relaxed, casual serve. The Borgonovo Riviera Ice Cream Dish (260ml/9oz) and the Borgonovo Vicenza Ice Cream Cup (available in 150ml and 250ml) are popular with high-volume operations – they stack well, handle the glasswasher reliably, and look clean on the table. Cases of 12 make replenishment straightforward.

The Libbey Ice Cream Dish (125ml/4.5oz) is a compact option suited to side-dessert portions or kids’ menus.

Knickerbocker Glory Glasses

Two dish lines and two tumbler lines round out the range – but it’s the tall, narrow formats that dessert parlours come back for. Knickerbocker glory glasses are the go-to vessel for layered sundaes, parfaits, and anything that benefits from visible height. The Artis Circee Tall (270ml/9.5oz) is a reliable workhorse here, combining a classic silhouette with the durability you need in a busy service environment.

For venues building a full dessert station, pair these with our Tea & Coffee Glasses to keep the glassware aesthetic consistent across the menu.

FAQ – Sundae Dishes & Dessert Glasses

What sundae dishes and dessert glasses do you stock?

We stock 27 lines across goblets, coupes, glass dessert bowls, dishes, and tumblers. Brands include Arcoroc, Artis, Libbey, Borgonovo, and La Rochere. All are glass and dishwasher-safe.

What is the difference between a sundae goblet and a coupe dish?

A goblet has a raised foot and a tall, narrow-to-wide bowl – ideal for stacked ice cream sundaes. A coupe is broad and shallow, better suited to plated desserts, sorbets, and elegant presentations where height isn’t the goal.

Are sundae glasses suitable for commercial glasswashers?

Yes. Every glass in this range is commercial-grade and dishwasher-safe, designed to withstand the high temperatures and repeated cycles of a professional glasswasher.

Can I buy sundae dishes in bulk?

Yes. All lines are sold by the case. Case quantities are 6, 12, 24, or 36 units depending on the product. Buying by the case gives you the best per-unit price.

What sizes do sundae glasses come in?

Sizes range from 125ml (4.5oz) compact portions up to 400ml (14oz) large-serve goblets. Most lines sit in the 220ml–370ml range, which covers a standard single-scoop to double-scoop serve.

Can sundae glasses be used for other desserts besides ice cream?

Absolutely. Our customers use them for gelato, sorbet, mousse, fruit compote, trifle, parfait, and layered desserts. The goblet and tall glass formats work especially well for anything with visible layers.

Do you stock knickerbocker glory glasses?

Yes. We carry tall, narrow glass formats suited to knickerbocker glory service, including the Artis Circee Tall (270ml/9.5oz). These are also popular for parfaits and layered sundaes.

Are glass sundae dishes suitable for buffet service?

Yes. Our bowl and dish formats are well-suited to buffet and dessert station use. They stack efficiently, handle repeated glasswasher cycles, and present well in a self-service setting.

What is the minimum order?

There is no site-wide minimum order. You can order a single case of any product. For the best trade pricing, we recommend ordering by the case.

Can I open a trade account?

Yes. Contact us to set up a trade account and access wholesale pricing across our full range. We work with cafés, restaurants, hotels, catering companies, and hospitality groups of all sizes.
