If you’re looking for a simple yet elegant way to elevate your next event, catered sweet canapés are a must-have at any function. Dessert canapés are the perfect treat for even the most discerning of palates, fashioned into a bite-sized explosion of flavours. Whether you’re catering for a wedding or want to impress your colleagues at the next big work event, sweet canapés are a delicious addition to any dessert table.
In this quick read, we’ll be breaking down how to choose the best sweet treat platters for your next event and why Angie’s sweet canapés provide a flavour experience like no other.
Selecting Your Sweet Canapés
It’s undisputed that good food can make or break a catered event. Hosting an event on your own requires a great deal of time and effort, which is why opting for catering services can make the planning process a whole lot easier. Catering your event with sweet canapés is a great way to offer your guests something light, versatile, and equally delectable. Who doesn’t love satisfying their sweet tooth with professionally catered treats?
Selecting the best sweet canapés for your function can seem overwhelming, especially when you need to factor in the overall feel, number of guests, and time of your event. Here are a few important things to consider that can help you pick the right sweet canapés to wow your guests:
Event Time
Before choosing the canapés for your event, it’s important to consider what time your event will take place. If your event is being held at lunch or dinner time, it may be better to order a generous selection of sweet canapés, as your guests may arrive hungry.
Light, refreshing sweet canapés, like Angie’s Mixed Fruit Platter, are a wonderful palate cleanser to treat your guests between meals. Sweet canapés are perfect for elevating any social gatherings or business events around teatime, allowing your guests to indulge in a bite-sized dessert while they take a tea or coffee break.
Matching Your Event Type
An important factor to consider when placing your order for canapés is planning according to the event type. Whether you’re hosting a corporate function, a children’s birthday party, or catering a wedding, you want to make sure that the sweet canapés you select will match the overall feel of the event and keep your guests satisfied.
If you’re looking for something more lavish to complement your wedding, Angie’s offers a wide selection of beautifully crafted sweet canapés. From our Baked Ricotta and Hazelnut Cheesecake Platter to our Raspberry and White Chocolate Almond Cakes, these sweet canapés are infused with delectable bursts of flavour and are exquisitely presented.
Prioritising Dietary Preferences
There’s no better way to express thoughtfulness and consideration as a host than to accommodate the different tastes of your guests. The goal is to try and satisfy as many guests as possible, which means more is always better. If you have any guests who are vegan, gluten-intolerant, or allergic to certain foods, make sure you order sweet canapés that they can enjoy too.
Additionally, it may be wise to order some kid-friendly sweet canapés if children will be attending your event. If you’re stuck on choosing a platter that will please most of your guests, always stick to the classics. Angie’s Chocolate Brownies with Berries is a customer favourite and is sure to be a hit at your event.
More Is Always Better
If you’re hosting your next big function, now is your chance to shine and impress your guests with next-level catering. Don’t shy away from your selection of sweet canapés; the more, the better! Having an array of platters to choose from gives your guests the option to build their own personalised plate of delectable goodies.
By ordering multiple sweet canapés, your guests can indulge in spectacular food and still go back for seconds. No matter how fussy or hungry your guests are, you can trust that a fully stacked table of Angie’s sweet canapés is sure to appease all your guests.
Embrace Creativity
Hosting an event means more than just planning and feeding your guests; it’s also about showing your personality and creating a memorable experience for them. If you really want to blow your guests away, pull out all the stops by being creative with your presentation and food selection.
Is there a signature sweet treat among your family or coworkers? Order sweet canapés that add that extra personal touch and represent things your guests love. Whether it be a restaurant favourite or a dessert you love making for friends and family, go the extra mile and choose sweet canapés that show your personality.
Why Sweet Canapés Are The Best Choice For Events
Canapé catering is one of the most efficient and versatile ways to accommodate guests and elevate a function. From promoting social interactions to offering a versatile alternative to fine dining, sweet canapés and bite-sized platters benefit both the guests and the event organiser.
Here are just a few reasons why you should consider catering your event with sweet canapés:
Facilitates Socialising
What better way to lift the mood of your event and get your guests chatting than with impeccable cuisine? Food is a great way to break the ice at a function, encouraging dinner guests to engage in conversation and feel more comfortable. If you’re catering a corporate function, sweet canapés are the perfect addition for making your event more dynamic and memorable.
Unlike traditional sit-down dinners, your guests will have the freedom to fill their plates with tasty treats and engage with other people. Whether you want to create a comfortable environment where your coworkers can network with each other or liven up the chatter between your wedding attendees, sweet canapés are sure to be a smash hit.
Offers Flexibility
Accommodating the interests and tastes of all your guests is no simple feat, especially when it comes to food. If you’re stuck on choosing the right type of food service for your event, canapés are a fun, flexible way to provide your guests with incredible treats. Whether your guests arrived peckish or ravenous for food, sweet canapés are the perfect choice for accommodating different portion sizes and flavour options.
Additionally, opting for catering makes the responsibility of planning and hosting your event far easier. Instead of choosing a set menu of pre-portioned meals that need to be served, sweet canapés from catering services like Angie’s are delivered directly to your door, ready to eat.
Easy To Prepare With Minimal Cleaning
Looking for a simpler way to feed your guests without worrying about exhaustive pre-event planning and post-cleanup? Sweet canapés are the best way to appease your guests and save you the hassle of a laborious event take-down. While sit-down dining offers a more traditional approach to dinner parties, canapés are a simple yet elegant way to serve your guests.
Who doesn’t love to nibble on expertly crafted finger food? Canapés are the host-friendly alternative for keeping clean-up to a minimum without compromising on next-level cuisine. With Angie’s sweet canapés, you’re afforded the convenience of serving your guests with freshly made platters that are ready to serve upon arrival.
