Exquisite...

We celebrated a birthday, a new baby and the first time seeing my in laws since the start of lockdown today so I wanted a feast for us all to enjoy without any work whatsoever. We ordered a mixture pf the Ploughman’s boxes and the Afternoon Tea boxes, including two children’s Afternoon Teas for a 5 year old and a 3 year old. It was delivered to our door on time and beautifully presented in individual boxes. I had planned to plate it all up but we ended up just putting the Afternoon Teas on our stands because they are sentimental but leaving the ploughman’s in their boxes as they looked wonderful! Everything was tasty and fresh. The chutney in particular was delicious. The scotch eggs-yum! Every plate was clear at the end. The lemon cake was super zingy, the cream was light, the Raspberry Coulis dipping sauce was to die for. Cannot Recommend highly enough for any occasion.

Another fantastic afternoon tea delivery to my parents to mark their anniversary. Mum and Dad were delighted with this surprise; beautifully packaged and bursting with delicious sandwiches and sweet treats. Sadly  I didn’t get to try it, but I am assured everything was perfectly delicious. Huge thanks to Caroline who created this treat and ensured it was delivered safely and in time for my parents to enjoy this afternoon in the garden. Cannot Recommend highly enough!

We had two ploughman’s delivered for a treat for our parents, they were super fresh very tasty and the portion was very generous, would highly recommend and will certainly order from Caroline again!

Caroline prepared a Mexican inspired feast for our monthly team lunch. Every thing was freshly made and tasted amazing, she even lent us her hotplates so the fajita’s didn’t go cold. To be honest it didn’t last long enough to be needed.
I would recommend Caroline and Red Pepper Catering as the food was amazing, great value for money. I wouldn’t hesitate to use again, Thank you Caroline.

I ordered a fathers day Dinner delivery from Red Pepper Catering and the food came early as requested. The meal was absolutely delicious, as I cook from scratch at home, I find myself being disappointed when eating out but the food was far better than I could cook and I could tell very good ingredients were used.
I found the service very flexible, I was able to pick different meals from different menu’s and there were no issues at all. I have dietary requirements as well which were all taken into account. I would highly recommend. It gave us all a nice break from the kitchen and we were able to sit down as though we were in a restaurant.
We also ordered a picnic for my birthday which was also lovely, packaged up so easily so we could just take it with us. The food again was of a very high standard, very tasty! Don’t hesitate, just book.

Say hello to … The Red Pepper Signature Rub

What is a rub? In catering terms, a rub is a blend of herbs, spices, seasoning and other dry ingredients that you work into meat, fish, vegetables or other food before cooking. The idea is simple. The rub sits on the surface, adds flavour, helps build colour and creates that lovely savoury crust people notice […]

Making events memorable

What guests actually remember about your event Food matters, of course. Great catering sets the tone, brings people together and gives your guests something to enjoy, talk about and share. But when people look back on an event, they rarely remember every canapé, garnish or detail on the menu. They remember how the event felt. […]
