Dessert Plates


Party Plates for Any Occasion

Plastic party plates are great for any occasion. There are a number of retailers that offer plastic plates that look like china. Plastic party plates are perfect for any budget. They’re durable and easy to store. Elegant disposable plates are available in every size and color. You can also purchase matching cups, bowls, and napkins to make your look complete.  High quality plastic plates are suitable for weddings or any type of party. You may find that your plastic party plates are too good to throw away.  Collect them to use over and over again.

Before you move forward with a party plate order, first make a list of the types of food you will be serving. Next, you need to figure out how many people you will be serving.

For a cocktail party, count on two 7″ plates being used per person for every two hours of serving. You will also need toothpicks and beverage napkins.

A straight buffet will call for at least two dinner plates per person and one dessert plate. Remember that your guests will most likely go back to the buffet for another helping.

A full service sit-down brunch, lunch or dinner will need a single 10 1/4″ party plate for the main course. Other courses, like the salads, need a 9″ plate. More informal meals like sandwiches could be served on a 6″ or 7″ plate.

Look online for divine plastic party supplies to create the perfect party. Ordering your supplies may be confusing. Use the retailer’s expertise when placing your order. Professional vendors are willing to help you prepare for a perfect party.

Save your party budget by using plastic plates that look great. Stick to your decorative theme with the variety of colors that are available. These party plates are easy to transport, store, and reuse.

I am inviting few friends for dinner.I need some options to choose from drinks, starter, mainmeal and dessert.

Number of friends invited for the get-together- 12
I like to cook so anything is fine for me to prepare.
Since its for 12 people, how can I serve these large quantity of food? Is there any large aluminium container’s that can be purchased? If yes, from where? and offcourse the guests can have paper/plastic plates. Sorry I am new to US so am still exploring the new place and shops.
Thank you.

Find your nearest wal mart and go to their cooking section. They have a variety of disposable aluminum dishes that you can serve from. You can also pick up some food items from there. As a side you can serve pasta salad. My simple recipe is:
2 bags colored rotini
tomatoes
broccoli
Large bottle Italian dressing

Boil the rotini till done. Drain and place in the serving dish. Wash and chop the tomatoes and broccoli to bite size pieces and place over the noodles. Pour as much Italian dressing as you like. Stir very well and refrigerate covered for a few hours. Remember to stir very well again before its time to serve. You could also add olives if you like. This recipe serves a lot so you may even half leftovers to snack on later.

To keep it simple for dessert just serve up some ice cream to save time and money. Serve it with one or two cookies.
