Some Simple Food Rules For a Cocktail Party
Hosting a cocktail party is a fun way to spend time with your family and friends. But when you serve alcohol your guest are sure to appreciate a few bites of food. As you are thinking about what to serve you should also think about how many people so you can have an idea on how much food you will need. For cocktail food, usually six bites every hour per person. However depending on the guests I would calculate a bit more then that.
Finger foods are good for cocktail parties. They can be prepared prior to the cocktail party and they require little clean up.
Your guests would like to have a napkin or even a small paper plate will due. This way they can mingle while they snack. Little clean up will be involved. Learn more about us.
Your appetizers should be in a small portion basically one bite size. Sausage rolls, mini cheesecakes, chocolate dipped strawberries are all awesome ideas for cocktail party food. Martinis go great with caviar or smokes salmon. Or make it really simple and offer cheese and wine.
Whatever the cocktail party food of choice you need to be sure that you enjoy yourself at your cocktail party as well. If the host can be no wheres to be found then some of the guests may begin to feel a bit uncomfortable. Make sure that you have chosen a food that you are familiar with, and a food that can be made ahead of time. You should not have to slave in the kitchen when you are hosting a fun filled cocktail party. About us.
