In the summer, we don’t always want to eat a large meal, or have something hot. At this time of the year lighter bites are what many people want, so if you are planning on throwing a party this summer, deciding on the food that you want to serve means considering the time of the year.
Whether a birthday party or a baby shower, here are some ideas for the perfect summer party food…
Picnic – This is the time of year to enjoy the outdoors and a picnic means you can do just that whilst enjoying good food. From salads to sandwiches and sausage rolls, the key with picnic food is good storage and the right picnic equipment if you are transporting it.
Afternoon Tea – A traditional afternoon tea is a real treat, and a great choice for a summer afternoon. Consisting of sandwiches, cakes and of course the traditional cup of tea, it is a firm favourite, and you can even get afternoon tea boxes sent to you through the post from somewhere like this www.afternoonteabox.com/
Barbeque – Of course what is better on a beautiful summer’s day than the smell of the barbeque? The taste of barbeque food of course! There are lots of foods to choose from for a barbeque, and although it might be traditionally a meat eaters’ food, there are plenty of tasty vegetarian barbeque options, from veggie burgers to corn on the cob.
