Food Bars - Fun Food Trends For Your Next Party



Who doesn’t look forward to the food at a party? We all have to eat, right? Make the meal something special by getting the guests involved.
A recent trend that is popping up is food bars. Take one base item and make a buffet of side items so party guests can make their own treats. This way guests can make what they actually like instead of having a pre-assembled meal or treat.
Have an ice cream bar. Start with a bowl of vanilla or chocolate ice cream. Put out lots of toppings for people to choose from such as rainbow sprinkles, chocolate chips, graham crackers, M&M’s and cherries. Then add bottles of chocolate, caramel and peanut butter topping. Don’t forget the whipped cream.
You can do this with the main meal as well. Have a hotdog or hamburger bar. Give guests a plain hotdog or hamburger and let them put as many toppings as they want on it- cheese, onions, tomatoes, relish, lettuce, ketchup, mustard, mayo, even pineapple! Try it with pizza. Start with a plain cheese pizza. Put out any combination of toppings you like from pepperoni and sausage to french fries and mozzarella sticks.
Already have the main meal planned? Have a baked potato bar or popcorn bar or hot chocolate bar- the possibilities are endless.
