Why couples and planners choose the 5QT Gold Accent Round Chafer
The 5-quart gold-accent round chafer is the buffet centerpiece that upgrades catering from functional to considered. The polished stainless steel body with warm gold accent trim reads elegant on any buffet line — a step above the standard chrome chafer without the cost of full brass. At 5 quarts, it's sized for hot side dishes, sauces, and smaller entrée portions, and the rounded silhouette pairs beautifully with our rectangular chafers for a mixed buffet line. Catering teams love the tight-sealing lid that keeps food temperature stable through a long dinner service, and the fuel wells accept standard chafing fuel canisters (sold separately). Planners use them for weddings, holiday parties, corporate lunches, and community fundraisers. Each chafer is deep-cleaned, polished, and inspected between events — the gold accents stay bright event after event.

Frequently asked
- How many chafers do I need for a buffet?
- Plan roughly one chafer per 25 guests for entrées, plus additional chafers for sides and sauces. A 100-guest wedding buffet typically uses 4–6 chafers total.
- Is chafing fuel included?
- Fuel is sold separately. Standard 2-hour or 4-hour gel fuel canisters are widely available and fit our chafers without modification.
- Can I mix round and rectangular chafers on the same buffet?
- Absolutely — the mixed silhouettes add visual rhythm to the buffet line and let you match chafer shape to dish type (round for sauces and sides, rectangular for sliced entrées).
