Using these plates is easy. Just take them out of the pack and you're ready to serve your food. They're disposable, so after your event, you can simply throw them away, saving you time on cleaning. When it comes to safety, remember these plates are not microwave or dishwasher safe. Do not put them in the microwave as the paper may catch fire, and the dishwasher may damage the plates. As for storage, keep them in a dry place to maintain their quality. They're great for large events like weddings and banquets, adding a touch of elegance with their vintage design.
