Some ideas about food for baby shower involve not only the food but also ideas about theme and decorating. We asked for suggestions for food for baby showers and received a number that we thought you would appreciate for their creativity and imagination.
- “So, maybe another way to do it would be to go for ethnic food, either Chinese or Indian. Depending on your budget, you may want to consider catering from a restaurant to save time for preparation. If you want to cook on your own, you can find interesting recipes at epicurious.com.”
- “It depends on the time of the day you are having the baby shower. If it is casual afternoon baby shower, I would go for cupcake with either pink or blue frosting (depends on the sex of your baby...if you don't know yet, then go for both colors!), and cookies served with coffee, tea and/or juice. If you have any nursery theme or color, then I would coordinate the food with the theme/color.”
- “One thought for a food for baby shower menu: "baby" foods baby carrots, very small cookies, miniature cupcakes, tiny sandwiches (1 regular sandwich = 4 little ones with no crust). If you know the gender of the baby, try pink or blue punch (just add some food coloring to your favorite punch recipe)."
- "Another thought: use the nursery theme Example: if the nursery theme is Winnie the Pooh, serve many dishes made with honey. Arrange raw veggies and dip in the shape of different characters on platters (Tigger, Eyeore, Piglet, Pooh)."
- "Cheese bouquet: Using sliced cheese, white & yellow, take flower shaped cookie cutter to cut basic petals, small circles for the middle, and poke a sucker stick through the bottom. Arrange in small flower pots (with floral foam in bottom to poke sticks into. Need to be sure the cheese is sliced thick enough to support stick."
As you can see food for baby shower menus can be as varied as you could possibly want. Don’t feel that you have to stick to tea and cookies. Instead try and combine the theme of the baby shower or the nursery into the baby shower food choices.
It's time to check out these menu suggestions for food for baby shower.
