Ensure friends and family feel at home with our selection of finger food plates that will nourish inside and out!

Whatever the occasion, an amazing finger food plate never goes astray! They not only bring people together but also create a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere. It goes without saying that they are also incredibly delicious and will have your guests coming back for more which can only be a good thing! Here are a few of our favourite finger food plates that are guaranteed crowd-pleasers you will want to put on the list for your next party.

Antipasto Platter

It’s a crowd-pleaser for a reason, and when it comes to a quick and easy option, it’s hard to go past a classic antipasto platter. Try for a range of cheeses, cured meats, and olives as the basis for this finger food platter. Not only is it easy to find all the elements at your local grocery store, but you can also swap and change to suit the dietary requirements and specifications of your guests as needed. If the thought of covering your kitchen bench in greasy olive juice and cheese crumbs during the process of assembly puts you off, however, the Vileda 3 in 1 Heavy Duty Sponge Scourer is a much-needed addition to your cleaning arsenal, with the exclusive microfibre pad removing grease and wiping surfaces for streak-free results.

Feel Good Finger Food Plates That Will Nourish Inside And Out

Fruit Platter

For brunch events, it’s hard to go past a fresh fruit finger food platter. Not only are they healthy, refreshing, and easy to make, but they also look seriously Instagram-worthy! Choose a selection of your favourite fruit, and cut it into easy to eat pieces. You can even get creative with fun shapes and ways to serve. We love to add some small yoghurt pots and granola clusters to our fruit platter for a more substantial option! And who said it was only for special events? Spoil the family with a mini fruit platter for Saturday breakfast and #FeelGreatAtHome! For any unexpected yoghurt spills or sticky fruit residue, the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean Turbo Spin Mop is the best choice, great for mopping all hard floor surfaces including delicate wood, tiles and laminate, and able to remove 99% of bacteria with just water*.

Dessert Platter

Whether it’s a kids birthday party or afternoon tea celebration, a dessert finger food platter is a great way to add a little fun to your next event. Try to choose a simple colour scheme for your platters, such as soft pinks or pastels, for the best result and select a range of bite-sized desserts like mini doughnuts, marshmallows, and cupcakes so there’s something for everyone. Sticky fingers are all part of the fun but if you find them covering your dining table and kitchen bench, a quick scrub with the Vileda Non Scratch Sponge Scourer will shift even the stickiest of stains in no time.

Seafood Platter

A seafood platter is one of our favourites when it comes to delicious finger food platters, and it’s a great addition to any party or as a dinner substitute on a warm evening. Whether you prefer a simple, fresh platter featuring smoked salmon and oysters, or are happy to go to the extra effort and add some prawns and lobster, consider adding fresh lime and crusty bread to take it to the next level. We all know seafood can be messy, and there’s nothing worse than the lingering fishy smell, so pop on some Ansell Handy Clean Disposable Gloves when prepping your platter.

  • Platters are a great way to provide food for parties. Choose the right foods so it can all be prepared early and all you have to do is serve. I love hosting parties but not when I’m stuck in the kitchen whilst everybody else are enjoying themselves.

  • I want the opportunity to make more platters. But who says we need a special occasion? I should just make one up at home for my family just because

  • I mush be crazy but I find arranging a platter is very therapeutic! I love to have it colourful as it looks way more appetising and if visitors spring a surprise visit on me, I can still work with the staples in my pantry and fridge.

  • I need this for my friend, who stays the night once a month to give me (solo parent) a hand with my 3 rugrats. She loves chai tea and I’d love to say thanks and spoil her with this tea-licious prize

  • Hubby and I used to induldge in platters when we went out before we had kids. These would be perfect to enjoy on a ‘date night’ at home. These days a date night is a treat so these platters would compliment it so well.

  • I always love a good platter, and often envy all those I see online. I have tried a few times to make them, but never look as good as ones you can order online. I am often looking for inspiration.

    One of my favourites is Ezra. I already have an Elijah and seem to gravitate towards names that start with E!

  • The Smith Family should be applauded for the good work they are doing. Let’s hope that majority of the money does go to the child sponsored, and not chewed up in administration fees and other costs. Seen that happen way too often.
