Every single person I've connected with has felt like a friend. Show me another organization anywhere, let alone a catering company, that offers that level of personal attention. I'll wait.

Tips for Ordering Appetizer Catering for Offices
When planning an office event, whether it's a team meeting, client presentation, or holiday celebration, appetizers can set the perfect tone. At CaterCow, we know that getting the right selection of appetizers can make or break your event. Here are some tips to ensure your appetizer catering is a hit:
Consider Dietary Preferences and Restrictions
Ensure that your appetizer selection includes options for various dietary needs. Offering a mix of vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free items will make everyone feel included. CaterCow makes it easy to filter options based on dietary restrictions, so take advantage of this feature when planning.
Mix Up the Flavors and Textures
A successful appetizer spread includes a variety of flavors and textures. Think about combining savory bites like mini sliders or stuffed mushrooms with lighter options like fresh fruit skewers or veggie platters. This variety keeps the selection exciting and caters to different taste preferences.
Plan for the Right Quantity
Avoid the common mistake of under or over-ordering. A good rule of thumb is to plan for 5-7 appetizer pieces per person for a short event and up to 10-12 pieces if the appetizers are replacing a full meal. CaterCow’s platform provides portion recommendations, helping you calculate just the right amount for your group size.
Balance Hot and Cold Items
It’s important to balance hot and cold appetizers, especially if your event will last a few hours. Cold items like dips and cheese boards can be set out early, while hot items like mini quiches or spring rolls should be timed to arrive closer to the start of the event to ensure freshness.
Opt for Easy-to-Eat Items
Office events often involve standing and mingling, so choose appetizers that are easy to handle. Bite-sized, mess-free options like mini sandwiches, skewers, and finger foods are ideal. CaterCow’s selection includes a wide range of these convenient options, making it easy to pick crowd-pleasers that won’t require utensils.
Don’t Forget Presentation
The way appetizers are presented can elevate the entire experience. Use stylish platters and garnishes to make the spread visually appealing. Caterers on CaterCow often offer presentation enhancements, so consider upgrading your order to impress your guests.
By following these tips, you’ll ensure that your office event is both delicious and memorable. With CaterCow's wide range of catering options, organizing the perfect appetizer spread has never been easier. Happy planning!
