Catering for a small team in Paris: no minimum number of people, from 5 guests

A team of 6 celebrating a signature, a management committee of 8, a client meeting for 5: small teams order too. At L'Écrin Traiteur, there is no minimum number of people. There is only a minimum order of €50 excl. VAT (products only). Here is how it is calculated, and what an order costs for 5, 8 and 10 people.

How is the minimum order calculated?

• Add up the products ordered, excluding VAT.
• Delivery does not count towards the minimum: it is added afterwards, €29 excl. VAT in Paris and nearby towns.
• The product total must reach €50 excl. VAT. Below that, top up with a product from the menu: madeleines, a loaf cake, juice or an extra hot drink.
• The price per person stays the menu price, whatever the headcount.

How much does an order cost for 5, 8 or 10 people?

Classique breakfast at €8 excl. VAT per person, afternoon break at €6 excl. VAT, vegetarian lunch tray at €28.90 excl. VAT, €29 excl. VAT delivery included.

Lunch trays pass the minimum from 2 people. For breakfast and afternoon breaks, a small team tops up its order with one more product. Quantities per person can be worked out with the quantity calculator.

What should you serve a small team?

• In the morning: the Classique breakfast, with butter pastries, Alain Milliat juice, coffee and fresh fruit. Up to 10 people, the recipe counts 3 mini pastries per person instead of 2.
• In the afternoon: an afternoon break, one pastry and one drink per person, from €6 excl. VAT.
• At lunchtime: lunch trays (starter, main, dessert, from €28.90 excl. VAT to €30.90 excl. VAT) or lunch boxes from €18.90 excl. VAT.

Savoury food is halal and pork-free. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are stated in the quote.

Do deadlines change for a small order?

No. Until 10 am the day before for breakfast, afternoon snacks, breaks, drinks and lunch boxes; 48 hours ahead for cocktail receptions, lunch trays, buffets, sharing platters and fruit skewers. Delivery starts from 6:30 am, by our team, at the time you set: see how delivery works.

Why does the price per person look higher for 5 people?

Product prices do not move. It is the delivery that is shared among fewer people: €29 excl. VAT for 5 people is €5.80 excl. VAT per person; for 50, it is €0.58 excl. VAT. All prices are published: see L'Écrin Traiteur's published prices and the prices page.
