These dessert plates are easy to use. Just put your appetizers or salads on them and serve. They're disposable, so you don't have to worry about a lot of cleaning. But if you want to reuse them, wash them by hand with mild soap and water. Remember, they're not safe to use in the microwave or dishwasher. They're great for special events like weddings and birthdays, adding a touch of class to your table.
