The red nose themed buffet picturs

I'm happy to tell you that the Red nose day buffet was well received and a huge success  i had many compliments on the buffet style. 
Some of my ideas worked well and some gave me a little trouble,
the tower of profiteroles just did not want to grow any taller as they seemed to be collapsing on each other. The profiteroles where quite soft to be honest so maybe ill crisp them up a little next time.

 One thing for sure is that i still haven't got all the colour of my hands. This was a fun catering event and cant wait for next year.
  

           So much Red

I must admit the deserts on this buffet gave me the most pleasure, it took me back to being a child working with with bright bold colours, it certainly gave a bold statement.

Red nose day buffet ideas

OK so I've decided to cater for a Red nose day fund raising event. The theme for the buffet is obviously Red nose so red food it is! Although I've been in catering for a long time now there isn't a huge amount of red foods, so i can see red food colouring coming in quite handy, as a family event i will be catering for adults and children.
Ive been playing around with ideas in my head for the menu -

• Pomegranate cocktails on arrival with blood orange ice cubes(Alcoholic)
• Red fruit Punch (for the kids)
• Spicy salmon and baby plum tomato kebabs
• Achote marinated chicken,chorizo and red pepper kebabs
• Red nose sushi rolls stuffed with smoked salmon
• Warm toasted brochette with tomato and red onion salsa
•  Salad of beef tomato and red peppers
• beetroot and sweet potato salad
• Individual boiled egg salad topped with a "Maire Nose" sauce
• Roasted paprika stuffed peppers
• Strawberry jelly's
• Water melon balls with a carved water melon swan
• Tower of red noses ( red iced profiteroles)

So those are my ideas is this is first food blog ill let you know how i get on and will try to add some pictures ect
