The Sweet End: Dessert Innovations for Corporate Catering

When the final course of a corporate event rolls around, that’s your chance to make a final great impression on your guests. More than just a sugar fix, dessert lends itself to being a blank slate for some serious artistry and a smooth way to slip in a bit of branding. In the world of corporate catering, getting clever with the sweet finale can take the whole event to the next level. So, let’s take a peek at the dessert trends shaking things up in the catering scene right now.

The Final Impression: Creative Desserts That Wow

The Art of Presentation

In the competitive landscape of corporate events, the desserts need to stand out. Catering services are turning desserts into art with meticulous presentation. Think of bite-sized confections displayed on intricate tiered platters or interactive dessert tables that become the room’s centrepiece.

Interactive Dessert Stations

Interactive stations are a hit, offering not just personalised treats but also an engaging activity for guests. From gourmet doughnut walls with custom toppings to live crepe-making stands, these stations add an element of fun while allowing guests to tailor their dessert experience.

Molecular Gastronomy: A Sweet Science

The cutting-edge culinary practice of molecular gastronomy isn’t the domain of the main courses. Desserts are getting a scientific makeover too, with techniques like spherification, foams, and smokes. Imagine a chocolate mousse that changes flavour as you eat it or a sorbet made instantly with liquid nitrogen—these are desserts with a dash of theatre.

Sweet Brand Promotion: Desserts with a Message

Custom Creations for Branding

Caterers are becoming adept at incorporating brand elements into dessert offerings. From logo-emblazoned macarons to custom-shaped pastries, desserts can effectively convey a company’s identity or message. This edible branding is a subtle yet powerful marketing tool that leaves a sweet taste in your clients’ mouths.

Supporting Causes with Sweets

Aligning a dessert with a charitable cause or special event theme is gaining traction. Caterers often craft desserts that match the colours of a charity or mould sweets into symbols representing the cause. These thematic desserts add to the event’s ambience and demonstrate support for important initiatives.
