  • chorizo/feta/feta cheese cube/green olive on stick


  • black olive/salami/cheddar on stick


  • Smoked salmon mini croissant


  • Salty monkey bread : pizza balls with Parmesan and pesto


  • Sausage in puff pastry with cheese and mustard


-falafel/feta/chunk of cucumber on stick with humous and tzatziki.

  • cherry tomatoe/basil/mozzarella on stick


  • olive bread


  • dips


  • crisps


-crudités

For pudding :

Tiffin and raspberry tart

I think so but it depends what quantities of everything you are surviving!

Yes, but I'd substitute one of the savoury nibbles for something less salty, as everything on your list is salty (not that I'm worried about health stuff, more that you might all get rather thirsty and / or appreciate some different tastes)

Sounds lovely and more than enough.

Are the children up to eating it?

What are the ages of the children? Some of those nibbles are quite 'grown up' and not suited to every child's palate. I'd probably add some mini pizzas and some plain sausages or sausage rolls to balance it out a bit.

Mini wraps? With choice of fillings eg grated cheese and lettuce, tuna and sweetcorn mayo, ham and cherry tomatoes. Mine just like plain stuff really!
The food you listed all sounds yummy by the way, I'd just do child friendly bits too.

Op. I'm very annoyed now. You've made me very hungry Grin

Sounds great but some cocktail sausages or something might round it off nicely? 😇

I'd do mini scotch eggs, mini sausages, cherry tomatoes, carrot sticks, crisps etc for the kids.

Is it nibbles as in people will already have had a meal or is it instead of a meal?
