The Food Rules of Your Cocktail Party

Hosting a cocktail party is a fun way to spend time with your family and friends. Guests will like that fact of you serving some appetizers with the alcohol that you will be serving. 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. As a rule of thumb, estimate six bites per person for every hour. However depending on the guests I would calculate a bit more then that.

Food that is great for your cocktail party would be mostly finger foods. 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. Your guests will have an opportunity to walk around and talk while they snack. And still not much clean up 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 you may choose to go simply with cheese trays paired with 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. So be certain that you choose something to serve that you are familiar with, something that you have made before. You should not have to slave in the kitchen when you are hosting a fun filled cocktail party. Our profile.
