The provision of bite-sized food items, suitable for serving as appetizers or snacks, prepared and delivered by a catering service located in close proximity to the client. An example would be a local culinary business specializing in miniature quiches, skewers, and other easily consumed delicacies, brought to the client’s address for an event.
The advantage of this service lies in its convenience, allowing hosts to focus on event management rather than food preparation. Historically, catering has evolved from basic food provision to encompass specialized offerings like miniature delicacies, reflecting changing social norms and expectations for event experiences. Sourcing this service locally often supports community businesses and reduces transportation costs.
