Feeding; 70% should be crowd-pleasing, familiar, and palatable ‘safe’ options intended to leave guests feeling well-fed
Entertaining; 30% should be to treat your guests, surprise them, indulge them, impress them, share experiences with them, and even help them discover new things
Unusual; 10% of that 30% should be quirky, unfamiliar, adventurous, fun treats that get people talking
Visual; 10% of that 30% should be visually arresting treats that contribute to presentation and add wow factor
Favorite things; 10% of that 30% should be treats that reflect your own personality and taste

“Dessert squares / bars are a dessert table favorite and always popular with guests because, although bite-size, they’re quite filling.

These look best arranged in rows on square or rectangular premium disposable serving plates.

Alternatively, to help control portion size, serve on individual mini tasting plates or individual tasting forks.

To enhance them further and add more flavor, serve them with a disposable food pipette filled with dessert sauce.”
