Most people usually only use one or two kinds of forks for an entire meal, but there are over 35 types. Each has either two, three, or four tines, making them suitable for different foods. If you’re planning a formal party, it’s nice to learn more about them. Expand your cutlery world and choose from a wide selection of affordable fork sets to impress your guests.
Dinner Forks
These are standard cutlery and are ideal for a huge variety of everyday food choices. We also sell unique designs in dinner forks sets and great color options from black to rose gold.
Fish Forks
If you’re serving a fish course, dining etiquette requires these on the table. They have one wider tine, making it easy for you to scrape the succulent fish flesh off the bones.
Deli Forks
These handy items have only two tines and were originally created for spearing slices of prosciutto. They are versatile forks for serving everything from deli meats to cheese.
Cake Forks
These elegant pieces of cutlery are smaller and perfect for pastries, cakes, and other treats. They have three or four tines, and most formal tables always include them for the final course.
Fruit Forks
These are small forks with three tines, and the left one is usually widened to provide a cutting edge. Essential for any formal dinner party if you want to avoid using a knife and fork!
