When is the last time you thought about the impact of your restaurant’s tray liners? Many restaurants, food trucks and delis need butcher paper tray liners or table covers to protect trays and tables and to keep food safe. Although food service paper may not seem like a strong way to market your restaurant, it’s important to consider the creative ways you can leave a memorable impression of your brand with your customers.  

Making and serving pasteles during the holidays is a Puerto Rican tradition and is a popular dish in many Latin America and Caribbean countries. Pasteles are savory treats that are typically the product of a family team effort. Each person in the family, even the youngest, is assigned a job of grating, mixing, stuffing, or wrapping. Pasteles are made with pork or chicken and adobo stuffing. Then they are encased in a green plantain or yuca masa and wrapped in banana leaves. Finally, they are wrapped in a specialty paper that is engineered to withstand the boiling process. Traditional pasteles are boiled, not steamed. Hold your pasteles together with the best quality pasteles paper, available from Oren International. We have created a premium 12"x12" Oren's Original Pasteles Paper for all your holiday inspired cooking.

Freezer paper’s poly coating keeps moisture inside to prevent freezer burn and conforms to the food item being wrapped.
