Handheld Foods Your Guest Will Love at Your Next Murder Mystery Party
Hosting a murder mystery party is a ton of fun on its own, but what can make the night even better? Great food! Having tasty handheld food items is always a good idea for murder mystery parties because it allows the guest to be actively involved in solving the mystery while they are snacking. At East Coast Murder Mystery, we want all guests to have the time of their lives, and sometimes, having a wide selection of food items to choose from can help.
The perfect handheld foods to serve at your next murder mystery party are:
- Meatball sliders: This dish is perfect for any party and is always a safe choice for everyone to love. For this, just take some meatballs and create little meatball slider subs out of them. Adding in a spicy marinara sauce can be a fun way to have a new twist on a traditional menu item.
- Portable popcorn: If you want to stay on brand with the theme you’ve chosen, portable popcorn could be a choice for our Catastrophe at the Cinema theme. There can be a popcorn machine and guests can scoop their own bag of popcorn. Also, there could be a topping station. For those who love savory, they can have buffalo ranch or chili lime whereas those who love sweet could have dark chocolate or butterscotch.
- Pigs in a blanket: Most individuals have nostalgia when it comes to pigs in a blanket as it is commonly served around the holidays with family. It is a classic dish that can easily be served during any event as these items are easy to eat and don’t require any messes. For a bit of a twist, some may choose to use pretzel breading or everything bagel seasoning for an extra crunch.
- Dessert on a stick: While skewers and kabobs are traditionally for savory food, this is a great way to make dessert portable. Make little brownies, cookies, or cakes and add them to the skewers with fresh fruit for a tasty and sweet portable treat that can be enjoyed while the mystery is still being solved.
With all our themes, there are so many choices when it comes to the types of food that you can make for your next murder mystery party. It’s all up to you to decide! For more help planning your next party, contact us today.
