Hospitality Connect carries 27 ambient food displays for bakeries, patisseries, cafes and counter service. The range covers ambient display cabinets, tiered display stands, counter displays and cake and sandwich displays, in glass and coloured finishes, with brands including Exquisite, Bonvue and Bromic.
Ambient means unrefrigerated, so the first question is whether your product is stable at room temperature. Breads, pastries, biscuits and packaged cakes are, and they present better in an ambient cabinet than in a chiller. Next, decide between an enclosed cabinet and an open stand. A glass cabinet protects product from handling and dust and suits a serve over counter, while a tiered stand puts product within reach for self serve. Finally, match the number of tiers and the footprint to your counter run.
