Frequently Asked Questions

What food should I serve at a graduation party?

Build a self-serve spread: Hawaiian roll sliders, a walking taco bar, buffalo chicken dip, fruit platters, pasta salad, and a sheet cake. Everything holds at room temperature for hours, so you're not stuck in the kitchen.

How much food do I need for a graduation party?

Plan roughly 6-8 appetizer bites per person per hour, or one main plus two sides for a meal. Kitchen's Witch's free recipe scaler at kitchens-witch.com/tools converts any recipe to your exact headcount.

What graduation party food can I make the day before?

Almost all of it: dips, pasta salads, and sheet cakes are better made a day ahead, and sliders can be assembled and baked day-of in 20 minutes. Each recipe flags its make-ahead steps so party day is just reheating.
