Edible Delights: Food for Parties

By: Natalie Delfos

The focal point of a party is food. Even the most boring event can be turned into a roaring success with fantastic food. All you need to do is choose the correct dishes and you will have a party that is the highlight of your local social scene and the talk of the town.

When planning your party, carefully devise a theme. This theme can be as simple as a superhero theme for a child’s birthday party or a complex theme for an elegant charity soirée. Whatever the occasion, choosing a theme will help you immensely when planning for and choosing the menu. Additionally, choose the overall feel for the party. Is it to be fun and casual or high culture and elegant?

After you have chosen and theme and feel for your party, decide on the style and time of day. For example, a dinner party should not take place at four o’clock in the afternoon. Furthermore, a tea party should not take place at ten o’clock in the morning. Usually, people have certain expectations at certain times. If a party is planned for five o’clock in the evening, most individuals will expect a cocktail party with hordeurves and mixed drinks. An event to take place at eleven o’clock in the morning is generally expected to be a brunch with a mixture of breakfast and lunch options served.

Additionally, take care to choose your menu to your guests. If you are expecting children, foi gras and snails should not be on your menu. On the other hand, if you are expecting adults for a high brow dinner, macaroni and cheese should not be served. Ensuring you choose menu options relative to the scale of the function will ensure your party’s success with your guests.

It's part of party etiquette to choose the favorite menu of the person in whose honor you are throwing a specific party like a birthday, shower, or anniversary party. Serve that person's signature beverage and his or her favorite foods or desserts.

If you are planning a cocktail event or one with only hordeurves, carefully consider your options. Instead of choosing hard to eat items or foods that can quickly become messy, choose options that can be eaten cleanly with one hand in a single bite. Even though buffalo wings can be consumed in a single bite, they are simply too messy for guests to legitimately consume. Try mini quiche, bite sized baked goods, meat or cheese on crackers, or petite sandwiches for your party fare.

Your dessert should be stunning. Many parties now feature a variety of desserts instead of a single, main attraction. Even brides are having miniature wedding cakes for each guest instead of the large traditional cake.

Whatever the style of your party, ensuring the food is successful will ensure the party’s success. Individuals may not remember the color linens you used or the purpose of the party, but are certain to recall those tasty cheesecake bites, a scrumptious roast, or smooth cocktail.
