Pamela thought extensively in advance so that she was perfectly prepared. The quality of both the service and the food was very good! For our wedding we had delicious and beautifully decorated drinks boards, exactly according to our wishes! We also asked if Food & Wood would also like to take care of the layout of our cake table. This was also very well done! Afterwards they neatly packed all the leftovers so that we could enjoy them in the evening, perfect! Unfortunately, we do not (yet) have a photo of the snacks when they were served, only of the neatly served leftovers and the cake table.

Great company, the delivery person reported twice that no one was home (without having been there) and the package was returned to sender. Food & Wood immediately sent another new package and luckily the delivery person came by. Thanks to Food & Wood's quick action, I still received the birthday gift on time. Really great service! Can recommend Food & Wood to everyone.

I gave the Primavera Borrelplank to my sister and her boyfriend, including the free Pinot Grigio wine that they received for free with the monthly promotion and they loved it. The description was ideal for putting the shelf together! :D

Last week was the national Week without Meat and of course we as an organization also participated in it. For example, colleagues could participate in an acquaintance Quiz and have a chance to win a vegetarian drinks box. In the end we had drawn 6 lucky winners. Pamela is happy to think along with you about possibilities and is very service-oriented. I can definitely recommend the drinks box. It was really a gift for my colleagues.

Ik ben op en top tevreden met Food & Wood, fantastische ervaring. Pamela heeft een prachtige grazing table voor onze intieme bruiloftsreceptie neergezet. De gasten waren erg onder de indruk. Ze durfde het eten bijna niet aan te raken, zo’n plaatje was het. Het eten was niet alleen mooi gepresenteerd, maar was ook heerlijk. Iedereen kwam al naar me toelopen voor Pamela’s info.Al met al, zeer tevreden dus!

Grazing Table Catering

Are you familiar with the buffet revolution worldwide: the grazing table? A grazing table is actually an extensive drinks board, but in the size of a complete table! It is a completely new experience, far removed from the traditional buffet as we know it in the Netherlands. It offers so much more and always has something for everyone (Yes, we dare to claim that!).

There’s a lot to consider when planning an event. From the venue to the guest list and, of course, the food. Good catering can make the difference between a successful event and a disappointment. That’s why many people wonder if the Food and Wood snack box could be a suitable option for their special occasion. In this blog post, we’ll explore the benefits, possibilities and important considerations of this snack box. Our goal is to help you make an informed choice, so that your event will be an unforgettable experience for you and your guests.

What is a snack box?

A snack box is a carefully composed collection of small, tasty dishes that are often offered for special occasions, gatherings or as a treat for a drink. It can range from traditional snacks to creative culinary delights, depending on the customer's preference and the theme of the occasion. In this section, we will delve deeper into what a snack box exactly entails and the different types of snacks that can be found in it.

Types of Snacks in a Snack Box

A snack box usually includes a wide variety of snacks, so that each guest can find something that appeals to him or her. Below are some common categories of snacks:

1. Savory Snacks

  • Mini quiches: These small savory pies are often filled with ingredients such as spinach, cheese, bacon or mushrooms. Brands such as Duke offer ready-made mini quiches that are ideal for a snack box.
  • Snack platter: Small cubes of cheese, such as Old Amsterdam or Leatherdammer, combined with various types of cold cuts such as salami or prosciutto.
  • Filled wraps: Wraps filled with, for example, hummus, smoked salmon and vegetables. Deli Snack has very tasty variants.

2. Sweet Snacks

  • Mini cakes: Small cakes filled with fruit or cream, often found at pastry shops such as Lindt for luxury variants or Jumbo for more accessible options.
  • Chocolate fountain with fruit: This delicious offering features fresh fruits such as strawberries and pineapple, served with melted chocolate. Brands such as Cavalier offer quality chocolate for fondues.

3. Vegetarian and Vegan Snacks

  • Hummus snacks: Hummus is a versatile dip that goes well with vegetables or pita bread. Brands like Mazurek Hummus have a wide range of organic flavors.
  • Vegan sushi: Sushi made with avocado, cucumber and other vegetables. The brand Sushi Daily offers a range of vegan sushi that fits perfectly in a snack box.

4. Gluten Free Snacks

  • Gluten-free mini rolls: Small baked rolls made without gluten, perfect for guests with a gluten allergy. The brand Dab offers different flavors.
  • Corn chips with salsa: This delicious snack is completely gluten-free and can also be served with a tasty salsa. Tortilla Chips by Tostitos are an excellent choice.

Adapting to Various Dietary Requirements

An important aspect of putting together a snack box is to take into account different dietary requirements or restrictions of guests. This can be done by carefully selecting snacks, paying attention to the following points:

  • Dietary preferences: Provide plenty of options for vegetarians and vegans. This can be done by adding more plant-based dips and salads.
  • Allergies: Avoid common allergens by using alternative ingredients, such as replacing nuts with pumpkin seeds in certain snacks.
  • Flavor variety: Provide a good balance of sweet and savory snacks to cover all taste preferences.
Type of Snack Example Diet options
Mini quiches Hertog Mini Quiches Vegetarian
Hummus with vegetables Mazurek Hummus Vegetarian, Vegan
Gluten Free Mini Rolls Schar Gluten Free Rolls Gluten free
Vegan sushi Sushi Daily Vegan Sushi Vegan
Chocolate fountain Cavalier Chocolate Vegetarian

With the right selection, a snack box can provide a festive and inclusive experience that meets the diverse tastes and dietary needs of your guests. By paying attention to quality and variety, it is possible to create an unforgettable culinary experience.

Benefits of a snack box for events

Choosing an event snack box offers numerous benefits that greatly simplify the preparation and management of an event. In this article, we will explore the main benefits, including ease of preparation, time savings, versatility for guests with different preferences, and the aesthetic presentation of the snacks.

Ease of Preparation

Using snack boxes greatly simplifies the preparation process. Unlike traditional catering options that require extensive planning and preparation, a snack box offers a ready-made solution.

Example

Take for example the Gourmet Box from BitesWeLove. These boxes contain a variety of snacks, from mini sandwiches and sushi to vegetarian bites, allowing you to cater to multiple tastes and preferences at once. Customers can often order their box online and have it delivered on the date of their choice, saving time and effort.

Time saving

One of the most attractive benefits of a snack box is the significant time savings. Catering services can often take a lot of time for both preparation and set-up on location. With snack boxes, you have all the preparations done.

Examples of Time Savings

  • Delivery: Many companies, such as HEMA and Delicious Box, offer fast delivery services. This means you don't have to worry about picking up or preparing food on the day of the event.
  • No cleaning: After the event, you can simply put the unused snacks back in the box and leave the rest. This also saves on cleaning time.

Meeting Different Preferences

A snack box offers a variety of options, making it ideal for events with a diverse guest list. Whether you have guests who are vegetarian, vegan, or have specific dietary needs, there are plenty of choices.

Variety and Sample Products

Below is a list of snack boxes and their offerings:

  • The Vegan Snack Box from De Hippe Vegetariër: Contains a selection of plant-based snacks, such as vegan sushi and hummus with raw vegetables.
  • Premium Borrelbox from Borrelbites: This box contains various cheeses, charcuterie, and nuts, perfect for meat lovers.
  • Gluten-free Tapas Box from Party Box: Includes gluten free sounds, such as olives and mini quiches, specially designed for those with gluten intolerance.

Aesthetic Presentation

The presentation of the snacks is crucial to the overall atmosphere of the event. Snack boxes are often neatly and aesthetically attractively wrapped, which increases their appeal.

Examples of Aesthetic Packaging

  • Happiness Box from Deliciously Different: This box comes in a luxurious packaging with a stylish display, making it a real eye-catcher at any event.
  • Sushi box from Mizu: This box comes in eye-catching packaging that tastefully presents the sushi.

Benefits of an Attractive Presentation:

  • Better Image: A well-presented offer leaves a professional impression.
  • Social Media Value: Good visuals encourage guests to share photos on social media, which can provide free publicity for your event.

In summary, a snack box for events offers several advantages, from convenience and time saving to more elegant solutions for different dietary preferences and an aesthetic presentation. The use of snack boxes can not only relieve the pressure on the organizer, but also contribute to an unforgettable experience for the guests.

Below we discuss some of the most important considerations that you should keep in mind.

Number of Guests

One of the first things you need to consider is the number of guests you are expecting. The number of people will not only determine the amount of food you will need, but also the variety of snacks.

Examples of quantities:

  • Small group (2-4 persons): Choose a box such as the “Drinks Box for Two” from The Snack Maker, which contains various small snacks.

The length of your event also plays a crucial role in your choice of snacks. For a short get-together, you may need lighter, bite-sized snacks, while a longer event may require a more extensive range.

Recommendations based on duration:

  • Short events (up to 2 hours): Finger foods such as nachos and mini burgers are ideal. For example, look at the “Seven Snacks Combo” from Snackie.
  • Average duration (2-4 hours): Consider a combination of cold and hot snacks, such as those from The Tapas Box, which offers a wide variety of flavors.
  • Long-term events (more than 4 hours): Choose an extensive buffet style with various options, such as the “Buffet Snack Box” from Cateraar.nl, which includes several corridors.

Specific Dietary Requirements

In today's culinary landscape, it is important to consider dietary requirements and allergies, which can have a major impact on the selection of appetizers.

Common diet options:

  • Vegetarian: The “Green Snack Box” from Vegan Delight offers a range of plant-based snacks.
  • Gluten free: Snack house has special gluten-free options suitable for guests with gluten intolerance.
  • Vegan: The “Vegan Pamper Box” from EcoBites contains only vegan products.

Budget considerations

Finally, budget is an important factor that can influence your choice of snack box. The offer varies greatly in price, depending on the content and the supplier.

Example of price breakdowns:

Type Snack box Average Price Number of Guests Recommended Supplier
Snack box for two €20 2-4 The Snack Maker
Versatile Snack Box €45 5-15 Hapjesservice.nl
Festive Snack Box €100 15+ PartyFood

It is useful to compare prices between different suppliers and see which options fit within your budget. Also consider any additional costs, such as delivery or extra services.

By carefully considering these factors, you can choose a snack box that perfectly matches your event, allowing you and your guests to enjoy it to the fullest.

Summary of benefits and possibilities
