The quintessential mini-portion format, the 40g charcuterie tray is ideal for tastings and appetizers: its compact size makes it perfect for olive shops, tapas bars, artisanal cheese shops, and caterers looking to offer a sample, an amuse-bouche, or a small tasting portion. Sold in cartons of 2,250, it's suitable for small food businesses and occasional tasting events. Made in France from translucent, grooved polystyrene, it withstands both heat (up to 70°C) and cold (-40°C), and allows for immediate viewing of the product through the glass.

How to choose the right deli meat tray for your needs?
The rule of thumb for portion size: a 40g tray corresponds to a usable volume of approximately 40ml (the 1g to 1ml equivalence works very well for rigid polystyrene). This format is particularly suitable for an individual snack portion or a tasting.
If you are hesitating between two weights, choose the larger size: a catering service loses customers on an undersized portion much more than on an extra cost of a few cents per tray.
