Welcome to Party Season!

The invites are out - so what are you going to feed them? Bittersweet Catering can help you with any, if not all your needs. Here are some helpful suggestions


Cocktail Party?

Give one of our Suggested Cocktail Packages a try. Our Retro Cocktail Menu and Old Town Favorites Menu have been our most popular cocktail packages of the season. How about adding our Indian Samosas, Wild Mushroom Quiche Diamonds, or our famous Cheddar Chive Biscuits to your buffet - your guests will be fed like royalty!


Office Holiday Luncheon?

Give them a home cooked meal for lunch! Try our Tired of Turkey Meal or the appropriately named Holidays at the Office package. Both offer a well rounded hot meal that everyone will enjoy and can be delivered warm right to your door! Not a traditionalist? Our homemade Lasagna, Stromboli, or Deli Harvest Board will fill them up and keep them happy!



Stromboli

Holiday Dinner?

Love hosting the holidays, minus the cooking? That's why we're here! Pre-order your holiday turkey or ham meal with us, and the sooner you'll be able to kick up your heels. Take a peek at our 2008 Holiday Menu and see how we can help. Gravy usually lumpy? Want to can the canned Cranberry sauce? Want to save time on the main course? Don't fret - we have our Turkey Gravy and Cranberry Orange Relish available by the quart. Whole Turkey and Spiral Ham will allow you more time with the family - all you have to do is re-heat!


Dessert to Bring to Grandmas?

Don't show up empty handed! We have so many delicious desserts, you might pass up the turkey! From our Chocolate Pecan Pie to our Gingerbread Cake - we have something for everyone. Why not start a new tradition of cupcakes with your holiday meal?


In Need of a Hostess Gift?

Arrive with a special treat for your host! Anyone would be pleased to receive one of our lovely Gift Tins, Cupcakes, or the gift of piece of mind - a Gift Certificate for our Catering Services!


And like Jeffrey always says - It's not a party without deviled eggs

Diptastic!

Invite a real dip to your next party (no, we don't mean Uncle Harry!). Hot or cold, there is no way you can go wrong with one of our delicious dips. Whether for your holiday party, Sunday afternoon game or just lounging around the house wrapping gifts - it'll feed your crew and please everybody while doing so!
