serving suggestion
Presentation not guaranteed
A serving suggestion is a depiction of food styled attractively for marketing purposes, typically shown on packaging.
The phrase appears as a disclaimer indicating the actual product may differ from the appetizing image—the garnishes, side dishes, or plating won't be in the box.
The cereal box showed fresh strawberries, but small print said "serving suggestion."
