Can you put hot food on a slate platter?

Yes, slate can withstand heat, so it is suitable for serving hot canapés, pastry bites or freshly baked bread as well as chilled foods.

Does slate need any special care before use?

It is recommended to lightly oil slate with food-safe mineral oil from time to time. This helps maintain its colour and prevents the surface from looking dry.

Will the platter scratch or mark easily?

Slate is durable but naturally softer than ceramic or glass. Using non-metal utensils and avoiding cutting directly on the surface will help keep it looking its best.
