Description

This dessert platter is an assortment of mini desserts, good for up to 30 guests, finished with dipping sauces.

It is prepared and styled by a Bay Area cheese and charcuterie team featured in the San Francisco Chronicle, and pairs naturally with a grazing board or table to round out a cocktail hour, shower, or office gathering.

What's Included

  • Assorted mini desserts: cream puffs, éclairs, macarons, laceys, and various cookies
  • Fresh berries
  • Served with salted caramel or Nutella for dipping
  • Portioned for up to 30 guests

Sourcing and Quality

Ingredients are selected for quality and seasonality, from premium cheeses and farmers-market produce to house-made elements. The result is a spread that tastes as good as it looks, with careful attention to balance, texture, and color.

How It Works

Orders are placed ahead of the event date so everything is prepared fresh. Delivery is available across the service area, and a menu of add-ons is available to extend or customize any spread for larger groups or longer events.

Service Area

This Bay Area cheese and charcuterie service travels throughout the San Francisco Peninsula, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Alameda, Marin, and Contra Costa counties. Delivery is scheduled around the event timeline, and the team coordinates the spread to match the style and scale of the gathering.

Perfect For

This option suits weddings, engagement parties, anniversaries, birthdays, baby and bridal showers, holiday parties, and corporate gatherings. It works as the centerpiece of a spread or as an elevated addition alongside other catering.

Credentials and Trust

  • Featured in the San Francisco Chronicle for its cheese and charcuterie work
  • Highly rated by clients across review platforms for presentation and taste
  • Woman-owned Bay Area business with a styled, hand-built approach
  • Transparent published pricing with real-time availability through this listing

Allergen Note

Products are prepared in a kitchen that handles milk, eggs, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, and other common allergens. Guests with food allergies should take this into account, and dietary needs can be discussed when the order is placed.

Pricing and Availability

This option is offered at a flat rate of $210. Delivery is arranged based on the event location, and add-ons can extend the spread for larger groups. Check availability and reserve the date directly through this listing.

Styling and Presentation

Every order is arranged with an eye for abundance and flow, layering shapes, colors, and textures so it reads as a designed, photo-ready centerpiece rather than an afterthought, and gives guests a generous, welcoming display to gather around the table.

Easy, Hands-Off Hosting

The goal is effortless entertaining: the order arrives ready to serve so the host can spend time with guests rather than in the kitchen, with nothing to assemble beforehand and nothing to clean up after the event. It is a simple way to make a gathering feel elevated without adding to the host's to-do list.

Pairings and Add-Ons

This option pairs naturally with a cheese and charcuterie graze, a flat-lay grazing table, or the other platters from the same kitchen, so a host can build a fuller spread from a single vendor. A menu of add-ons is available, from extra cured meat and honeycomb to a warm baked brie, so the order can be tailored to the guest count and the feel of the event.

Booking and Lead Time

Because every order is prepared fresh for the event date, ordering ahead helps secure both the date and the preferred size or variety. Larger orders and full-event catering are best arranged with additional lead time so the team can plan the prep, delivery, and any on-site setup around the venue and timeline.

Sustainable Serveware

Orders are presented on biodegradable or reusable serveware and styled to look intentional and abundant without unnecessary waste, a thoughtful presentation that fits naturally into weddings, showers, office gatherings, and celebrations alike.

Effortless, Crowd-Pleasing Catering

This is catering designed to make a host look good with very little effort. It arrives ready to set out, looks generous and considered, and gives guests something fresh and high-quality to enjoy, whether it anchors the table on its own or rounds out a larger spread for the gathering.
