- This item is NOT signed on the base with a Fiesta® or HCL/FTC backstamp.
- When Fiesta® was reintroduced in 1986, this item was not part of the Fiesta® line, it was part of the HLC foodservice line. Occasionally HLC would glaze various restaurant ware shapes for their commercial customers in Fiesta® color glazes. The overruns or seconds would then be sold at HLC’s retail outlet store. Hence the “Fiesta® Mates” name was adopted. This piece was moved over to be an official Fiesta® shape in 1995, but it was still also available to HLC’s commercial customers as a foodservice item.
- The caddy was not included on a Fiesta® shape sheet until the introduction of Peacock (2005), which called it a “sugar packet”. The name changed to “sugar packet caddy” when the Lemongrass (2009) shape sheet was released.
- There were approximately 300 Chartreuse sugar packet caddies produced and they were sold at HLC’s retail outlet during their October 1999 tent sale.
- Chocolate sugar packet caddies were produced and sold through HLC retail outlet stores only.
- In March 2019, Shamrock, Ivory and Slate were taken out of the production line up.
- Sapphire are known to exist. One sold at Strawser Auctions in March 2016 for $200.00 (Photo courtesy of Strawser Auction)
