Catering Tea Parties Author:
I have been catering small tea parties in my hometown for ten years. My husband and I bought a nice cottage after we retired and it has several nice features, the best of which is a gourmet kitchen. I have always loved cooking and entertaining for others and decided to try to make a little money doing it after retirement. I developed a menu with a lot of very nice offerings. I like to offer items that sound as appealing as I know they will look when they are served. Delicious food has to look beautiful to be good for catering. Seasonal fruits and vegetables are good for decoration and for eating. A big factor in catering is planning how much of your kitchen is going to be in use at a time. I finally arrived at the conclusion that I wanted to focus my catering plan on tea parties because I could work on the preparatory work for a couple of days before the event. I needed to find ways to make my catering successful and that was one of them. My husband’s only involvement in my catering business is taste testing new ideas and driving me to wherever I need to be to set up. He was not interested in working with me cooking and preparing food. He is an excellent cook, but catering didn’t sound the least bit fun to him. I bring my own china when I am catering a tea party. I have been amassing a large collection of china for my business. I have broken a few pieces over the years, but not many. The only adornment that I recommend to my clients is to set out fresh flowers. My favorite catering jobs are for groups of women. I prefer that there are no children at the tea parties, but sometimes there are. Most of the food that I serve is not kid friendly. I bring tea, of course, scones, jam, finger sandwiches and small desserts. I have gotten a lot of compliments on my scones over the years. I have a dislike for coffee. I’m not sure where it originally came from, but I just prefer tea. I’ve been asked several times if I will provide a coffee service when I am catering. I refuse to offer coffee service. I don’t even like the smell of coffee and there is absolutely no room at a tea party for coffee. I have several favorite teas for catering. Earl Grey is a standard, but I have lots of requests for Brodies Famous Edinburgh which is a blend of Assam and Ceylon teas. My personal favorite is Lyons Red Label because it is so rich and full flavored. The flavor of the Lyons Red Label is so consistent that it makes it a perfect choice for catering.
