As party food, cold platters in catering are popular for good reason: they look great, don't need to be kept warm, don't take up much space, and can be put together in a variety of ways – for meat lovers as a cold cut platter, purely vegetarian as a cheese platter, for fish lovers as a seafood platter, healthy as a vegetable or fruit platter, with fine antipasti, or a curated selection of gourmet delicacies.

Party platters from rustic to gourmet catering

There is a perfect cold platter for every occasion. For a casual team get-together in a relaxed atmosphere, a rustic platter with cold cuts, cheese, and freshly baked bread and matching side dishes is a great fit. Perhaps a snack platter with Bavarian specialties for an office Oktoberfest celebration, accompanied by good beer and other cold drinks. The simplest version of a cold platter is half-sandwiches, which can be easily enjoyed during a coffee break.

For more formal occasions and a festive ambiance, party platters can of course be more sophisticated. Gourmet food, antipasti, or tapas can also be served as a cold platter that everyone can help themselves to. The advantage of Finger food comes in handy portions that can be eaten in one bite, even while standing, and often requires no cutlery. For a standing reception, for example, or a quick break during a seminar, a cold platter with finger food is a great choice.

Cheese platter, meat platter, or fruit?

Perhaps you think of a "party platter" as the classic meat or cheese board. The origin of the cold platter as we know it from celebrations here used to mean simple, traditional fare, but a lot has changed since then thanks to international influences and a new awareness of healthy eating and different dietary needs and intolerances.

Modern cold platters with international flair

The modern cold platter is versatile and offers treats to suit every taste. A selection of French gourmet cheeses on a cheese board, accompanied by grapes, crackers, tomatoes, and salad, perhaps even plant-based cheese alternatives for vegan guests and the curious. A hearty meat platter with select cold cuts, smoked meats, and sides like radishes and pickles. For fish lovers, a platter with smoked salmon, trout fillets, and seafood specialties. For dessert, there is a fruit platter with bite-sized pieces.

What our customers say

Last year, I had to arrange catering for an important meeting at very short notice. I was surprised by the incredibly fast and friendly service; after a short phone call, I received several offers within a few hours. I've been using Heycater ever since! whenever I need catering. I like the control via the account the best, all adjustments and questions are answered quickly. An incredible time saver for me!

“Great Christmas party thanks to heycater: I use heycater's service! for my faculty Christmas party. Even though I had to change my offer at very short notice (add gluten-free offers, etc.), my contact person was very accommodating and friendly. Even during the pre-Christmas stress, I received nothing but friendliness, customer-oriented cooperation and respect.
Hannah Görtlitz
“Smooth ordering and delivery, great food!

Had ordered the food for a full-day workshop for 12 people (vegetarian. /vegan sandwiches, mini croissants, muffins, lunch bowls) was delicious as always and was delivered on time.

Always happy!”
Markus W.
“Everything was great, I'd love to go back!

The ordering process was super easy, the selection was delivered on time - including beautiful decorations (fresh fruit, tomatoes, herbs in pots, decorative pumpkin) - and attractively distributed on the tables. The food itself was very well received by colleagues. Each dish was labelled and there was also information about allergens.”
