Grapes Offer Fresh Inspiration for Caterers in New Guide: Free Booklet Available Now

Catering professionals can tap into a valuable new resource for ideas and inspiration with “Presenting Fresh Grapes from California for Catering Professionals,” a free full-color booklet produced by the California Table Grape Commission. The just-released booklet offers recipes and tips regarding cheese plates, passable appetizers, buffets, expo stations, steam tables and more.

“We’re seeing so many more chefs using fresh grapes throughout restaurant menus. We felt there was a need to show caterers and catering departments how well grapes can fit into their unique menus, as well,” says Cindy Plummer, vice president of domestic marketing for the commission. “California’s growing season runs from May into February, allowing caterers to utilize California grapes for their signature items and seasonal offerings nearly year ‘round.”
