The price per person falls as the headcount rises: €17.04 excl. VAT at 20 people, €14.87 excl. VAT at 50, delivery included, because the €29 excl. VAT delivery is spread across more guests.

Why order 48 hours ahead?

From 50 people, the quantities of fresh products to prepare and deliver justify 48 hours' notice, against 2 pm the day before for smaller groups. Confirm the headcount, the address and the delivery time at that point.

How do you avoid a queue at 50 people?

Split the buffet into two serving points: a thermos of coffee and one of juice at each end of the table, with the mini pastries self-service. A single table for 50 people creates a queue; two points halve it.

Which dietary requirements should you plan for?

Fruit skewers are vegan and gluten-free, pure butter mini pastries suit vegetarians, and the gluten-free banana bread is €26.90 excl. VAT for 6 to 8 people. Tell us how many guests are concerned when you ask for a quote.
