They are completely safe for food, as they don’t leach any chemicals, unlike some plastic containers. This means you can wash and re-use glass jars over and over again, without compromising on their quality. This makes them handy for restaurants and cafes, as well as home use. You can even use the jars to store jam if you become bored with making desserts.
As well as being a safe material for dessert jars, glass can be made into different shaped jars, to help make desserts more visually appealing. Our glass dessert jars come in a wide range of designs, such as traditional faceted or hinged lid jars, wide neck squat jars, ornate hexagonal jars, premium heavy based jars and contemporary square shaped jars.

According to the Cambridge English Dictionary, a beauty serum is ‘a substance that is designed to improve your hair or skin and make it less dry’. Or, to be more specific, beauty serums are lightweight, highly concentrated substances with active ingredients that are absorbed rapidly, penetrating deep layers of hair or skin to rejuvenate and protect it. Regardless of whether they live up to their claims, or how well they work, people use serums to make them look and feel young and beautiful.
If you already run your own business and sell cosmetics or hair care products, a serum is a great way to expand your range. You can provide your customers with an extra way of making their skin or hair more silky soft and youthful. Serums are ideal for using alongside every day moisturisers and they give that extra boost for people who need a little extra help with their dry, aging skin and hair. Once you’ve decided on the ingredients of your high quality serum, you’ll want some premium packaging to match. That’s where we come in.
