Funeral Catering – What food options are available?

Saying goodbye to a loved one is difficult. Throughout your emotional time, however, there are some practical considerations to take into account. Funeral catering services can be specifically designed in order to reflect your, or your loved ones, specific desires. There are a range of funeral options available to suit your needs.

Finger food buffet

A finger food buffet is a light option to fulfill your funeral catering needs and provides guests with a range of delicious options to choose from. This food option does not have to consist of a selection of sandwiches; a sophisticated twist can be added by serving spinach and feta goujons, for example, or red Leicester and caramelized onion tart. A finger food buffet can explore both sweet and savory options.

Cold or Hot Buffet

Buffets are a food catering style that are less formal than a sit down dining experience and are a more substantial food option than the light bites a finger food buffet offers. The situation can be social and allow for the intermingling of guests to share and reminisce over memories of your dearly departed.

Formal dining experience

Finally a formal funeral catering option can be implemented in order to add a sense of gravitas and reserve to proceedings. This option can include the hire of staff and equipment as well as the delivery of food and drink. Professional menu planning services can cater to your custom needs and also the individual needs of your guest. Chefs can also be hired on site to ensure the fresh preparation of food for the occasion, and staff hired to lend a professional atmosphere to proceedings with a personal touch.
