With Penni Black we like to think differently. Through our creative catering flair we have created bowl food, a substantial and stylish alternative to canapés. Small but perfectly formed, bowl food dishes are a perfect middle way between canapés and a full formal dinner. Bowl food is served in ceramic bowls and designed to eat standing up, perfectly suited to winter product launches, exhibitions and conferences to warm your guests.

As with our canapés the bowl food menu can be designed and served in keeping with the branding and décor of your event theme. We can even supply serving staff to take the hassle out of hosting and allow you to mingle with your guests.

If you're unsure the quantities of bowl food required for your function then why not try our cost calculator? The catering calculator allows you to select the style of event you require, your number of guests and the planned duration and our calculator will generate an estimate.

If you would like something a little different or you have particular event requirements call us today on 0800 389 6107 to discuss the occasion with professional caterers.
