Sugar Bowl Buyer’s Guide
A small sugar bowl is a stylish addition to any kitchen worktop, able to be topped up when needed and offering easy access to your sugar for tea, coffee and cooking. But there’s a huge range of sugar bowls on the market, in various styles and qualities!
Not sure what to look for when it comes to the best sugar bowl? Check out this buyer’s guide.
Capacity
Sugar bowls are available in a range of sizes, but those designed for family kitchens usually have a capacity of around 0.25L. These are the perfect size for sugar for tea and coffee, and they won’t take up excess space on your countertop.
If you use a lot of sugar for baking and cooking, a sugar bowl with a large capacity might be preferable.
Design
In keeping with the traditional ritual of afternoon tea, many sugar bowls boast vintage designs with quirky decorations. If that’s your style, you’ll be spoilt for choice, but there’s also a range of contemporary designs to choose from. Plain white ceramic sugar bowls pair well with most existing crockery so are perfect if you have a set you need to complete.
Quality
As with anything sold in abundance, the quality of sugar bowls can vary hugely. Look for a sugar bowl from a reputable manufacturer that’s made from food-safe ingredients. Any plastic parts (such as a spoon or lid) should be BPA free.
Durability
Most sugar bowls are very durable, and it helps that they aren’t handled on a daily basis. Porcelain and stainless steel bowls are the most durable, while those made from fine china are a little more delicate.
