Suggestions for Baby Shower Food

Baby showers are fun parties and as a host, it is your duty that every aspect of the party will satisfy your guests. The time, venue, activities, games and food should be well thought out to ensure that everything will go smoothly. For your menu, here are some ideas on what to serve during a baby shower.

Finger foods and finger sandwiches are your best bets for a fun party. Easy to hold, easy to make, fun to eat, and great-tasting, these foods can be the only ones you can serve in a party so that no one will get hungry. Other food additions in a baby shower are for variety, but for satisfying food, you can never go wrong with finger sandwiches and other finger foods.

You can also serve the baby shower cake during the party to satisfy the sweet tooth of your guests. Baby shower cakes are generally large in size as they come with different themes or shapes. This cake should then be enough to be served to everyone, or you can have lovely cupcakes which guests can help themselves with as well.

Take out your baby or wedding cookie cutters and grandma’s secret recipe and work it out in the kitchen. Cookie cutters for wedding, birthdays and other themes can be used for baby showers as well, such as butterflies and hearts. Nothing can be more special than homemade cookies, but if you don’t have the time, or the skills, just head off to your local bakery to get some. Pizza can be considered as a staple or one of the official food for fun parties. They will never be out of place for your baby shower.

Vegetables and fruits can be cut in bite size pieces and are great and refreshing treats. You want something that can appeal to the health conscious people.

In planning a baby shower, you first start off with the important details of the party such as date, venue, and guest list. After these details, you can now work on your menu. Adjust your menu according to the time and place of the party, and not the other way around. Opt for a pineapple shake when get to finalize that you’ll have an afternoon shower outdoors, but do not change your venue or time only because of your menu. There are other alternative yet fun menu options that you can have.
