I am planning to do a fruit tray and vegetable tray for 350 people. How much of each should I buy? Cheese cubes Crackers Carrrots Cherry or grape tomatoes Broccoli Cauliflower Sweet peppers Baby dill pickles Celery Chips and dip Spinach dip Grapes red and/or green Strawberries Pineapple Cherries I may not use all these but need an amount when I decide on which ones I should use |

Edie, congratulations. Look at the fruit tray page and the veggie tray page, Each explains how to estimate number of pieces per item (for example, bites in a standard size pineapple or pieces of celery in a bunch). Usually, about 5 pieces each, depending on what else is served. If just one tray, including both, about 8 pieces. Also, dip per pound is shown. Chips, 6 pounds potato or 8 pounds corn per 100, 1 pint dip per pound.
It takes about 4 person hours per 100 to prepare trays from scratch |
