Sharing Platters

Platters are a wonderful catering option for events of all sizes, offering a seamless and stress-free solution with a quick and efficient setup. They provide excellent flexibility in both style and quantity, allowing us to tailor your catering to suit your occasion and budget.

Effortless Catering for Any Event

Our platters are ideal for accommodating allergies and dietary requirements, with a wide range of options including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and nut-free. We can also provide platter and allergen information signage to ensure clarity and peace of mind for you and your guests.

Inclusive & Allergy-Friendly

Platters are delivered on serving boards in protective boxes and fit into most standard-sized refrigerators, allowing them to be kept chilled until required. When ready, they can be effortlessly removed from their boxes and styled directly onto tables—perfect for creating your own grazing-style display with added personal touches.

For a fully styled experience, our team can deliver within a one-hour time slot, set up, and style your platters on-site. This includes our styling equipment, cheese knives and accessories, fresh foliage, palm plates, bamboo cutlery, and napkins.

Flexible Delivery & Styling Options

Clean down & Collection

Any leftover food can be easily returned to refrigeration, provided the 4-hour food safety and hygiene window has been adhered to. All hired styling equipment and accessories will be collected the day after your event, ensuring a smooth and stress-free clean down after your event.
