It is customary to serve food and beverages at a baby shower party. In the past, baby showers were at high tea hour (afternoon) when women with their umbrellas would sit around on a warm day and get together for tea and light snacks. Today, for food, nearly anything goes, from finger foods, candy on tables, appetizers, to complete meals at restaurants. Tea has been replaced with cold beverages, wine, coffee and other drinks. However, the one “must” is to have a baby shower cake for the Mommy-to-Be. The menu for baby showers should be based on:
- what the Mommy-to-Be wants
- budget
- length of the baby shower
- location of the baby shower
- number of guests attending
- time of the baby shower
- the season
There are many options for the baby showers menu, ranging from appetizers to a full meal. If the baby shower is at a restaurant, you will need to coordinate the menu with the restaurant. Most restaurants provide food set up as a buffet or a sit down setting. The restaurant will help you match the menu to your baby shower theme and the personalized baby shower invitations theme.
For baby showers at home, you can make your own food, cater or a combination of the two. If you are having the baby shower catered, ask the caterer to send you a menu to review. Again, you will have the option of setting up a buffet or cooking a sit down menu. Just leave room for cake.
