What quantities for a breakfast of 100 people?

The rule stays at 2 mini pastries per person: 200 pieces are needed, that is 7 trays of 30 (210 pieces delivered). Beyond 40 people, 2 homemade cakes replace 10 madeleines.

How much does a breakfast for 100 people cost?

The Classic formula (pastries, juice, coffee, fruit), at €8 excl. VAT per person, comes to €829 excl. VAT delivery included (100 × €8 + €29). The full breakfast, with the quantities in the table above, is priced on quote.

HeadcountClassic excl. VAT, delivery includedPer person
20 people€189€9.45
50 people€429€8.58
100 people€829€8.29

The price per person falls as the headcount rises, because the €29 excl. VAT delivery is shared among more guests. See also 50 people and 20 people.

Why order 48 hours ahead?

From 50 people, the quantities of fresh products to prepare and deliver justify 48 hours' notice, against the day before by 2 pm for smaller headcounts. Confirm the headcount, the address, the floor and the delivery time then. Delivery starts at 6:30 am.

How do you avoid a queue with 100 people?

A single table for 100 people creates a queue. Split the breakfast across several service points, for example four points for 25 people each, with a coffee flask, a tea flask and a jug of juice at each, and the mini pastries self-service rather than served on a plate. The 17 flasks then divide naturally: 4 flasks per point, with one more to cover refills.

  • Timing: a flask of coffee stays hot for 6 hours, up to 8 hours after delivery, so everything can be set up before the first participants arrive.
  • Flow: place the hot drinks away from the pastries, so that the two queues do not cross.
  • Margin: if the headcount may move, add an eighth tray of 30 pieces (€48.90 excl. VAT) rather than recounting.

Which dietary needs should you plan for?

The fruit skewers are vegan and gluten-free, the butter mini pastries suit vegetarians, and the gluten-free banana bread is €26.90 excl. VAT for 6 to 8 people. With 100 people there are almost always guests concerned: ask for dietary needs at registration and state the number of people when requesting a quote. For the calculation of pieces by diet, see vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free quantities.
