We cater children's birthday parties across Cascais — garden houses in Birre, flats near the Marina, party rooms and school halls. The food comes in child-sized pieces that survive an hour on a table without an adult standing over it, plus a separate spread for the parents who end up staying longer than planned. We deliver, set up, and take everything away.
Small hands need small food: mini sandwiches, chicken skewers, cheese and fruit on sticks, savoury pastries, vegetable sticks with a mild dip. We keep the seasoning gentle and skip anything that needs cutting or a fork. Sweets come at the end so the savoury part is not abandoned in the first five minutes.
Parents rarely leave straight after the cake, so we lay a second, quieter table for them — Mediterranean canapés, marinated vegetables, cured fish, a warm dish if the party runs into the evening. Our Slavic-accented bakes work well here: they hold their shape for hours and feel like home cooking rather than buffet filler. Coffee and tea are set up so nobody has to hunt for the kettle.
We agree an arrival window around the entertainer or the venue's own schedule, and set up in twenty to thirty minutes. For gardens near Guincho and Quinta da Marinha we bring covers and shade-safe presentation, because a warm afternoon on this coast ruins an unprotected table quickly. Afterwards we clear the table, bag the rubbish and take our equipment with us.
Yes — send us the list and we build the menu around it, keeping nut-free, gluten-free or dairy-free items on separate platters with clear labels.
Both are possible. Most children's parties work well as a delivery with full set-up, but we can leave a member of staff to top up platters and clear away as you go.
Tell us the date, the number of guests and the style — we'll send a tailored proposal.
