Why Australian Cafes Choose Bevande

Bevande was designed from the ground up for the Australian cafe market. Every piece in the range is engineered to handle the rigours of commercial service — high-volume glasswashers, daily stacking, busy pass-throughs and the constant demands of a working kitchen. Key reasons cafes, restaurants, pubs and clubs across NSW, Victoria and Queensland choose Bevande include:

• Commercial-grade durability — vitrified porcelain construction that resists chipping, cracking and thermal shock in commercial glasswashers
• Consistent sizing and colour — uniform dimensions and glazes across the range make restocking simple and keep your floor looking polished
• Distinctive colour palette — Bevande's signature colours (Aqua, Mist, Maize, Apricot, Stone, Slate, Rosso, Raven and Bianco) allow venues to build a cohesive, on-brand coffee presentation
• Purpose-built for espresso — cup shapes and sizes are designed to showcase espresso-based drinks at their best, from ristretto to megaccino
• Excellent value — premium quality at wholesale-friendly prices, especially when buying in box quantities
• Australian market focus — sized and styled for the Australian coffee culture, not imported European or American standards

The Bevande Range: Complete Guide

Espresso Cups

Bevande espresso cups are the foundation of any cafe's coffee program. Available in multiple sizes and colours to suit your menu and brand identity. All packs of 6.

• Espresso Cup — Aqua, 75ml — a compact, classic espresso cup in Bevande's signature Aqua glaze; ideal for single and double ristretto service
• Espresso Cup — Aegean, 75ml — a refined 75ml cup in the Aegean colourway; perfect for specialty coffee menus
• Espresso Cup — Mist, 85ml — a slightly larger espresso cup in Mist; suits venues serving a standard double espresso
• Espresso Cup — Mist, 90ml — the largest espresso option in Mist; ideal for long blacks and Americanos served in a smaller vessel
• Espresso Cup — Maize, 85ml — the 85ml option in Bevande's warm Maize glaze; a popular choice for venues with a warm, earthy aesthetic

Buying tip: For a standard cafe doing 200+ covers per day, we recommend holding a minimum of 4–6 dozen espresso cups to account for glasswasher cycles, breakage and peak service periods.

Cappuccino Cups — Cono & Intorno

Bevande's 200ml cappuccino cups are available in two distinct shapes — Cono (conical, tapered profile) and Intorno (rounded, traditional profile) — giving venues the flexibility to choose a shape that suits their brand and barista workflow. Both are available in four colours. All packs of 6.

Cono (Conical) — 200ml:

• Cappuccino Cup — Aqua, 200ml, Cono
• Cappuccino Cup — Maize, 200ml, Cono
• Cappuccino Cup — Mist, 200ml, Cono
• Cappuccino Cup — Apricot, 200ml, Cono

Intorno (Rounded) — 200ml:

• Cappuccino Cup — Aqua, 200ml, Intorno
• Cappuccino Cup — Maize, 200ml, Intorno
• Cappuccino Cup — Mist, 200ml, Intorno
• Cappuccino Cup — Apricot, 200ml, Intorno

Cono vs Intorno: The Cono's tapered shape creates a narrower surface area at the top, which many baristas prefer for latte art as it concentrates the pour. The Intorno's wider, rounder profile is more traditional and comfortable to hold — a popular choice for venues with a classic cafe aesthetic.

Latte Cups

Choosing the Right Bevande Colour for Your Venue

One of Bevande's greatest strengths is its cohesive colour palette. Choosing the right colour (or combination of colours) is an important branding decision for any cafe or restaurant. Here's a quick guide:

• Aqua — a fresh, coastal blue-green; suits beachside cafes, coastal venues and light, airy interiors. Popular across Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, the Gold Coast and Melbourne's bayside suburbs.
• Mist — a soft, neutral grey-green; the most versatile colour in the range. Works in almost any interior style from industrial to Scandi to traditional. A safe, sophisticated choice for any venue.
• Maize — a warm, earthy yellow; suits venues with a warm, natural aesthetic — timber interiors, plant-filled spaces and earthy colour palettes.
• Apricot — a soft, warm orange-pink; a bold choice that adds warmth and personality. Popular with brunch venues and cafes with a vibrant, social media-friendly aesthetic.
• Stone — a warm, sandy neutral; sophisticated and contemporary. Works beautifully in modern cafe and restaurant interiors.
• Slate — a deep charcoal grey; sleek and modern. A popular choice for specialty coffee venues, wine bars and upscale restaurants.
• Rosso — a deep, rich red; a bold statement colour for venues that want to make an impression. Particularly striking for Italian-inspired cafes and restaurants.
• Raven — a deep matte black; dramatic and contemporary. Popular with modern, design-forward venues.
• Bianco — classic white; clean, timeless and universally versatile. The safe choice for venues that want maximum flexibility.
• Aegean — a deep, rich blue; sophisticated and distinctive. A strong choice for specialty coffee venues and upscale cafes.

Pro tip: Many venues choose a primary colour for their coffee cups and a neutral (Bianco or Mist) for their teapots and mugs. This creates a cohesive look while giving flexibility across the menu.

How to Buy Bevande in Bulk for Your Venue

Calculate Your Par Stock

A well-run cafe should hold enough cups to cover peak service, glasswasher cycles and a buffer for breakage. As a general guide:

• Espresso cups: 3–4x your peak hourly espresso output
• Cappuccino / latte cups: 2.5–3x your maximum cover count
• Mugs: 1.5–2x your maximum cover count
• Teapots: 1–1.5x your maximum simultaneous tea orders

Buy by the Box

All Bevande products at The Flying Fork are sold in box quantities — the same way they ship from the manufacturer. This means better per-unit pricing, consistent quality and no repackaging damage. Cups and saucers come in packs of 6; double wall glasses in packs of 24.

Standardise Your Colour Selection

Choosing one or two colours and sticking with them makes restocking simple and keeps your venue looking consistent. We recommend selecting your primary colour and ordering enough to cover your full par stock before opening — then reordering the same colour as needed.

Plan for Breakage

Hospitality venues typically replace 20–30% of their crockery annually due to breakage. Factor this into your purchasing plan and reorder before you run low — not after you've run out mid-service.

Melbourne is the coffee capital of Australia — and Bevande is a staple of Melbourne's world-renowned cafe culture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Bevande cups dishwasher and glasswasher safe?

Yes. Bevande cups, saucers, mugs and teapots are made from vitrified porcelain and are fully commercial glasswasher safe. They are designed to withstand the high temperatures and detergents used in commercial glasswashers without fading, chipping or cracking.

Do Bevande cups come with saucers?

Bevande cups and saucers are sold separately, giving you the flexibility to mix and match colours or replace individual pieces as needed. Megaccino cups and saucers are listed separately — make sure to order both if you need a matched set.

What is the difference between Cono and Intorno cappuccino cups?

Cono has a conical, tapered profile that narrows toward the base — preferred by many baristas for latte art as it concentrates the pour. Intorno has a rounder, more traditional profile that is comfortable to hold and suits a classic cafe aesthetic. Both are 200ml.

Can I buy replacement lids and infusers for Bevande teapots?

Yes. The Flying Fork stocks replacement lids and infusers for both the 350ml and 600ml Bevande teapots separately, so you don't need to replace the entire teapot if a lid or infuser is lost or damaged.

What is the minimum order quantity for Bevande products?

There is no minimum order at The Flying Fork. Bevande cups, saucers and mugs are sold in packs of 6; double wall glasses in packs of 24. You can order as many or as few packs as you need.

Do you deliver Bevande to regional NSW, Victoria and Queensland?

Yes! We deliver to all areas of NSW, Victoria and Queensland — including regional centres like Newcastle, Wollongong, Byron Bay, Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Cairns and Townsville. See our delivery page for full details and estimated timeframes.

What Bevande colour is most popular with Australian cafes?

Mist is consistently our most popular colour — its neutral grey-green tone works in almost any interior style and pairs beautifully with both light and dark timber. Aqua is a close second, particularly popular with coastal venues in NSW and Queensland. Slate is the top choice for specialty coffee venues and modern restaurant settings.

Can I use Bevande cups for tea service as well as coffee?

Absolutely. Bevande's 200ml cappuccino cups and 400ml mugs are well-suited to tea service. For a dedicated tea program, we recommend pairing the Bevande teapots with matching mugs or cappuccino cups for a cohesive presentation.
