Snacks are small, convenient foods often eaten between main meals. As finger food, they are a versatile catering option for cocktail parties, meetings or trade fairs, as they allow eating while standing and without cutlery. Snacks to accompany drinks, such as biscuits or nibbles, complement the offering perfectly.

Characteristics of finger food

Finger food consists of small portions that are easy to eat with the fingers. It covers both sweet and savoury options and is popular in many cultural contexts. A cold finger-food buffet lets guests snack at any time throughout the event. Suggestions for timing the snacks contribute to a smooth flow.

Popular bites include:

  • Tomato and mozzarella skewers
  • Meat and chicken skewers
  • Canapés with smoked salmon
  • Wraps
  • Sweet desserts

Snacks for special occasions

A varied selection of bites is especially popular at parties. Ideas for party snacks include nibbles, puff-pastry parcels, fine pastries and tasty soups, as well as crisps, nuts and fruit. Popcorn is a favourite for film nights, in both sweet and savoury varieties. For occasions such as weddings or company celebrations, tailor-made snack options with adjustable portion sizes can be put together.
