Catering for large groups of people can be tricky – there’s always someone on a diet, someone with fussy tastes, someone with a sweet tooth and someone who’s a chilli lover. The solution? The snack platter to end all snack platters. Here’s how to cover your bases:

For those on a banting diet:
Stock up on cured meat like salami and prosciutto.

For the vegetarians:
Chop up a selection of brightly coloured crudités and serve with a selection of dips like hummus.

For the spice-lovers:
Go for samoosas, spring rolls and chilli bites with enough dipping sauces to go around.

For those with a sweet tooth:
Invest in a selection of mini cheesecakes and eclairs.

For the teetotallers:
Make sure you’ve got some alcohol-free options like pink tonic water.
