I just want everyone to be happy! 3 Tips for providing treat options for a crowd

 Planning an event for a crowd, whether personal or professional, can be an overwhelming task.  Is everyone going to enjoy the entertainment?  Have I planned for a good balance of entertainment and quality content?  What if the weather doesn't cooperate?  Did everyone get their invitations?  Why don't people RSVP?  Did I order enough food?  Did I order enough options for everyone to be satisfied?

My mom was an incredible event planner and she would always tell me, "You can only please SOME of the people, SOME of the time."  Her point was, that no matter how many options you have, or what entertainment you book, or what time of day you hold the event, someone is going to have something to say about how they would have done it differently.  That's fine!  We are all allowed our own opinions.  

We can, however, do our best to satisfy the majority of our guests.  We all know the importance of first and last impressions.  I'll leave the first impression for another post.  Let's talk about the last, the final, the dessert.

Who doesn't love dessert?  Crazy enough, some people do refuse dessert.  I know, I don't get it either, but to each their own.  Here are our 3Tips for planning a sweet treat for everyone.

Tip #1-  Variety.  Not a crazy, I can't decide because there are so many options, variety.  Just three.  Three choices that are distinctly different from each other giving your guests simple options.

Tip #2-  Flavors.  Chocolate.  Vanilla.  Fruit.  That's it.  Stick with the basics.  You can decorate the top fancy as you please, but the base should stick to this formula.

Tip #3-  Quantity.  A common mistake is to think that several people won't take a dessert, and the others will only take one.  While it's true that some people don't care for sweets, there are others that really enjoy them and will want to take more than just one.  They may even want to try one of each!  Plan accordingly.  I use a 1:1.5 ratio.  1.5 cookies for everyone present.  This will cover those who take more than one and those who would like to come back for seconds if there are enough available.

A great way to effortlessly plan and execute this approach is to order your dessert from Morsl cookies.  Our perfectly curated boxes follow this 3 Tip formula to satisfy a crowd.  Your dessert will be beautiful, delicious, and delivered directly to your event.  No stress.  No mess.
