Product Overview
Hotte is a purpose-built HTML5 template for takeaway and food-service businesses that need a professional online presence without the overhead of a full CMS.

Why Choose This Template?
Most food-business templates are either bloated WordPress themes with ongoing fees or rigid HTML starters that require a developer for every text change. Hotte sits in the sweet spot: a lightweight static template that still gives you visual editing via Elementor PRO, a license that never locks you out, and a codebase you can hand to any developer with confidence. If you need a professional food-service site live this week — not this quarter — Hotte is the pragmatic choice.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this a WordPress theme?
- No. Hotte is a static HTML5 template. It works with Elementor PRO’s static-site workflow or can be integrated into any CMS by a developer.
- Do I need Elementor PRO to use it?
- Yes. The template is built for Elementor PRO’s visual editor. Without it, you can still edit the raw HTML/CSS, but the drag-and-drop experience requires the PRO plugin.
- What does “manual update” mean?
- When a new version is released, you download the updated files from your account and replace the previous version. There is no auto-updater inside a dashboard.
- Can I use this for client projects?
- Yes. The GPL v3 license permits unlimited domains, including client sites, and allows modification and redistribution under the same license.
- Are the demo images included?
- Demo preview images are typically placeholder assets for demonstration. Replace them with your own licensed photography or graphics for production use.
Conclusion
Hotte delivers a focused, conversion-ready foundation for any takeaway or food-service business. With Elementor PRO visual editing, GPL freedom, lifetime updates, and a clean, audited codebase, it removes the usual friction between “we need a site” and “we’re live.” Download, customize, launch — and spend your budget on ingredients, not infrastructure.
