Product story
A Taste of France: Patisserie Blanco
Capture the timeless charm of Parisian boutiques and bustling bistros with the Patisserie Blanco Porcelain Base Tile—a robust 20x20cm square tile designed for life’s busiest spaces.
Inspired by the classic ceramics found in French shop fronts and bakeries, this "Blanco" (White) base tile offers a clean, neutral foundation for any room. Unlike traditional cement tiles which can be porous and demanding, Patisserie is crafted from high-quality porcelain. This means you get the authentic, matte aesthetic of a heritage floor with the exceptional durability and stain resistance of modern engineering. It is specifically designed to withstand heavy foot traffic, making it an effortless choice for hallways, kitchens, and boot rooms.
Specifications
Installation & care
⚠️ Installation & care
- No Sealing Needed: Unlike real encaustic cement tiles, these porcelain tiles do not require sealing, making installation faster and more straightforward.
- Grout Width: We recommend a 3mm grout joint to accommodate the moderate variation in the tile and maintain the authentic look.
- Batch Matching: If mixing these base tiles with the decorative 'Patisserie' tiles (e.g., Sucre or Hevin), please be aware that slight colour variations may occur due to different production methods. Always dry lay your tiles first to blend them.
- Grout Colour: A Medium Grey or Charcoal grout works beautifully to define the grid pattern and is practical for high-traffic floors.
Samples
Tone, glaze and veining all read differently in your own light. Cut samples are free — sample postage is £4.99 (£8 for Original Style) and we refund it on tile orders over £50 with the code we email you. Our family-run team is happy to check quantities and finishes with you on 01344 620211.
Delivery
In-stock orders are dispatched within 3–5 working days, with express options available. Special-order and made-to-order ranges carry their own lead time, shown on the product page and confirmed when you order. Pallet, slab, large-format and bathware orders travel on a specialist off-load service — we confirm the timescale and book a date that suits you before dispatch.
Delivery is calculated at checkout from your order and postcode (we do not offer showroom collection) and UK delivery is free on orders over £1,000 on most ranges. For pallet deliveries please tell us about access issues in advance — low trees or bridges, narrow roads or gateways, gravel drives, or no turning or unloading space — as a re-delivery charge may apply if we cannot complete delivery.
When your order arrives
Please check your delivery as soon as it arrives. Once goods are unloaded they become the responsibility of the receiver, so if anything isn’t right, contact us within three working days and we’ll put it right quickly.
Returns
Unused, complete orders can be returned within 14 days of delivery; as tiles are picked and packed to your quantity, a restocking fee of 20–30% applies depending on the range. Fired Earth ranges are returned through Fired Earth’s own returns process, and special-order items are non-returnable unless damaged on delivery or faulty. Ordering a free sample first is the simplest way to avoid a return.
