Can I put food on the painted plate?
Once cured, the painted plate is food safe for finger foods. We do not recommend eating regular meals on the painted plate, as metal utensils can scratch the paint. Bacteria could get under the scratched paint. As long as the paint is not scratched, the paint is food safe.

This special pen conforms to ASTM D-4236. For more specific information about the pen, visit the Pebeo website. (This link will open a new window to take you to a page not affiliated with Pass It On Plates.)


Can I wash the plate in the dishwasher?
Once cured, the painted plate is permanent, but because this is a hand crafted item we recommend hand washing.


Is there anything else I should know about the painted plate?
We recommend avoiding using metal utensils such as forks and especially knives on the painted plate, as the paint could be scratched. You won't have to worry about this when using the plate for cookies, banana bread, brownies, or a veggie tray, etc.
