"I used these lemon-shaped plates for my daughter’s lemonade-themed birthday party and they were a total hit! Not only did they look adorable with the cupcakes and fruit skewers, but I didn’t have to worry about plastic waste. They held up perfectly—even with slightly warm mini tarts. Cleanup was as easy as tossing them in the compost bin."Purchase Date: April 2025 | Usage Period: 2 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Javier Morales - Café Manager
"We switched to the Advanced Model of these sugarcane plates for our weekend brunch buffet and couldn’t be happier. The 3mm thickness handles saucy pastries and yogurt parfaits without any sogginess. Our customers love the unique lemon shape—it adds a fun, upscale touch. Plus, our composting costs dropped significantly."Purchase Date: February 2025 | Usage Period: 5 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Linda Park - PTA Coordinator
"We used the Base Model for our school’s back-to-school ice cream social. They were lightweight, safe for kids, and held up well under cold desserts. I appreciated that they’re BPA-free and compostable—our green committee was thrilled. Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is that a few plates bent slightly when kids stacked them, but that’s expected with thinner disposables."Purchase Date: August 2024 | Usage Period: 8 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Danielle Reeves - Wedding & Event Planner
"For a recent garden wedding with a citrus theme, we used the Pro Model with custom-branded lemon-shaped plates. The 4mm thickness was perfect for melty mini cheesecakes and chocolate-dipped strawberries—no warping at all. Guests kept commenting on how charming they looked. The fact that they break down in just 45 days made the couple, who wanted a zero-waste event, extremely happy."Purchase Date: November 2024 | Usage Period: 7 months
