Tips for Baby Shower Food

Feeding your guests at a baby shower can be tricky! There's a lot that you have to account for to ensure everyone is satisfied. One of the first things you need to think about are guest allergies. When you send out invitations, ask guests to indicate whether they have any food restrictions. Try to offer food that those with dietary restrictions can eat, and be wary of cross-contamination when preparing foods.

Try to prepare whatever food you can in advance. Salads are usually best when prepared day-of, but desserts and appetizers can often be prepared 1-2 days in advance. This will help you avoid last-minute rushes or overwhelming yourself with too much to do.

If you don't think you'll have the time or ability to cook all the food you need, consider turning the baby shower into a potluck! Invite guests to bring a dish that they think everyone will enjoy. To keep it even easier, assign each guest a type of food to bring. For example, maybe a few guests are tasked with bringing appetizers, while others handle the desserts. Ask guests to indicate in their RSVP whether they'll be bringing food or not, so that you can plan accordingly.

Prepare for the possibility of leftovers. If you don't want to take home any leftovers, be ready to ask guests or the mom-to-be if they want to take any food home with them. Try to make enough food for everyone, but not so much food that you're left with a ton of leftovers to deal with! This is why it's important to get RSVPs from everyone, so that you can make the right amount of food.
