We enjoyed a strawberry tree as part of our holiday fare
It was so pretty, and made quite a statement on the buffet
I couldn’t help thinking this would be so easy to change up for any occasion or holiday
like Valentine’s Day!
A styrofoam cone, toothpicks and spinach leaves cover the base
You could also use lettuce, cabbage leaves, or anything food safe
I made it the day before and tucked in into the fridge overnight
Before serving I surrounded the base with cheese cubes, grapes, and parsley
For an edible Valentine tree,
please use your imagination here
you could use powdered donut holes and strawberries
How about an edible tree for St. Patrick’s day,
more imagination please
using a stryrofoam cone covered with broccoli floretes, and carrots
with a wreath of other green veggies and golden yellow pepper pieces surrounding the base
with a “pot of gold” to dip them in
Can’t you just picture that?
Instead of gumdrops, how about a jelly bean and peeps tree for Easter?
A tiered server is another good option for buffets
You can create your own by Playing with Dishes, and stacking pieces you have
A pineapple makes a great tree, this one is decorated with mini cheese balls
The best part about using “tree style serving” is that
it takes up much less room in your serving space
than a large tray of food, and adds height and visual interest
Instead of an edible tree, a tree of vegetables and herbs is a beautiful centerpiece
And of course, flowers presented just a little differently, make a dramatic impact
Remember the power of presentation!
This Bloody Mary Brunch is features bakery bagels, croissants, hard boiled eggs, but they all look party pretty because of the display
A New Year means a whole year of celebrations and table possibilities!
