Calling all mummies?

Question

I am a new mum and seriously thinking about starting up my own business in children's party catering.

I stronly believe in good nutritious & healthy food so I would love all your opinions/comments on what you would like if you hired me to cater for your child's party. I am looking to cater for children aged 2-16 so all ideas are very welcome.

Thank you all in advance for your answers x

Answer 1

I wouldn't strongly focus on health food but make it an option.  You don't want to lose a ton of business because parents are afraid to use your services since healthy foods don't go over well with kids and they are concerned about spending a large sum of money on catered food that no one will actually eat.

Answer 2

excellent idea and i hope it works out well for you which i'm sure it will.

If your wanting food suggestions i can only mention a couple that may be different to the usual sandwiches, sausage rolls etc but when i had my 2 year olds birthday party just recently i made tuna wraps with mixed diced peppers and a tiny bit red onion and cut them into pin wheel rounds and they're great hand snacks. I also made my own fruit smoothies instead of cola and diluted pop. Hope i've helped a tad.
