What is a cover or food cover?

A cover or food cover is a piece of material used to cover and protect food, whether during preparation, cooking or serving. Both products are used to cover food ; their design and use varies according to the specific needs of food preparation or service.

Food cloche: The food cover is generally dome- or bell-shaped, high enough not to touch the food it covers. It is mainly used to cover dishes before serving, creating an elegant and slightly theatrical presentation. When serving, the cloche, usually made of stainless steel, is lifted to reveal the food. It helps to retain the heat of the food until it is served, which is useful for pre-prepared meals. It can also be transparent, protecting the food from external contaminants such as dust or insects, which is particularly useful for buffet displays where customers can see the meals and food being presented. Cloches are available in metal (stainless steel or silver), glass or plastic. Silver and stainless-steel cloches are commonly used in high-end restaurants.

Food lid: Food lids are generally flat or slightly convex. They are designed to fit perfectly over the opening of a container, whether for cooking or food preparation. When cooking, it is used to retain heat and moisture inside the container, helping to cook food faster and more evenly. After cooking, the lid helps keep food warm until it's time to serve. The lid protects food from spillage and external contamination. Food lids are often made of metal, stainless steel or aluminium, or glass so that the food can be seen. Lids are also used for trays, GN trays and other containers.
