Five reasons to choose frozen canapés for Christmas buffets

Christmas is a busy time on the catering calendar.

It’s also peak time for canapés, what with all the events, receptions, parties and other celebrations that are organised to mark the occasion.

As specialists in producing delicious buffet products for the food service sector, we’ve suggested five reasons why frozen canapés are ideal for the festive period and Christmas buffets.

1. They’re quick to prepare and serve. Frozen canapés simply need thawing and serving or heating before serving and eating. What could be more convenient?

2. No skill is needed to make them. Here at Frank Dale Foodservice, we do all the work to create and bake a delicious range of mini frozen canapés. All our caterer customers need to do is place the order, take delivery and serve, as required.

3. Frozen canapés are more cost effective. Research undertaken by the British Frozen Food Federation showed that caterers can save up to 66% by buying in ready-prepared frozen canapés against making from scratch (May 2009, BFFF/Manchester Food Research Centre).

4. They help to reduce food waste. Using frozen food can cut down on the amount of food that is wasted and thrown away. At Christmas time, it’s not always easy to gauge demand. Numbers can so easily fluctuate at any event. Simply thaw frozen canapés according to demand and caterers can avoid unnecessary waste.

5. Frozen food is great for keeping control of costs. At such a busy time of year, it’s easy for costs to run away with catering professionals and food service operators. Using frozen food like frozen mini canapés can help keep things under control.
