Fun fact : I've been making these kind of platters since about 6-7 years now and I got the reputation of being an amazing host, which wasn't the case when I used to spend hours in the kitchen while my guests where there in order to feed them all. 😂 And the best part is : NO MORE STRESS! I prepare the platters a few hours in advance and not only I'm ready and relaxed once people arrive, but I can enjoy the party like everyone else.
Here's a few other ideas: 1.Make a nuggets platter, you can buy the 'ready to fry' nuggets and fry them and take sauces in bowls and keep it beside the sauces with the label! 2. Set up a make your own drinks bar where you just keep the sprite and juices and lemons and mints and basically whatever goes with drinks 3. idk what to call this but you just put boiled pasta in a BIG bowl and other bowls filled with different sauces (Red, white and pink) and plates and forks so that anyone can choose the pasta they want! 4. You could do a ramen bar where you put the boiled ramen noodles in a BIG bowl and the sauces (spicy, mild, with cheese, black bean etc) and small bowls with kimchi, cheese, sesame seeds and other ramen toppings.. That's it, hope I helped
It looks beautiful Emily. My family like to play a game of who can eat the least and be full, so if i make anything like that it all goes to waste. Looks great though. Glad it was enjoyed
Such a great video Emily. We are in a middle of major covid wave here in India but I can’t wait when I can have friends and family over and try some of these.
It's 10/12 degrees in our countries, usually I'm all in for rain and thunderstorms, but the weather gets a bit depressing lately. Think we had 3 days of sunshine in total since the start of spring😂😭
Food is a great way to introduce yourself to people. They really aren’t so bad once you get to know them. Maybe just a few at time. I’m very introverted so I can only deal with a handful before I’m overwhelmed and need a break.
It's nice to have friends. They can take your loneliness away. Some of them can make you feel special and you can do the same. Life is beautiful although it maybe painful sometimes.
Thanks, Emily, you gave me ideas for prepping up a (tiny version) of savoury snack platters covered in my fridge for my Mum, who is recently moved to nursing home close to me. Their food is good, but Mum deserves a little extra cos she is underweight 😉 Isn't it great to circulate again. Have fun!
Love the ice-cream station idea and those platters just looked amazing.im definately going to try the jacket potatoes in the slow cooker for next party or on bonfire night or something,thanks emily.hope you had a lovely day having friends over xxx
Oh Emily, this is why I literally love you so much 😍 this is absolutely amazing!!! Perfect for parties and must've been SO lovely having people over and feeling a bit more normal again ❤️❤️
I made a tapas platter today after watching this vid a few weeks ago, it looked awesome, thank you! I would never have known to do the champagne flute thing xx
2:47 I didn't know you have the Japanese chocolate sticks in England! It's called Mikado? but here in Japan it's called Pocky and it's a very popular product here.
Yes Emily. Thanks for the hacks! Going to be well needed once we have finished our house renovation and are able to have family and friends over to see what's been going on over here!
All looks amazing I will definitely be doing those platters take some stress of me being able to be with guests rather than still cooking hope you all had a lovely time xx
I really don’t get the baked potato hack. Other than keeping them warm. It only takes 90 minutes - maybe less to make baked potatoes in the oven and you don’t need to prick them either…
I love everything about this video! I just bought a toolbox thing for ice cream sundae night and it’s full of all different types of sprinkles and toppings. We have ice cream once a week if the kids have eaten there vegies all week (they are 2 and 4 and very picky lol) and it’s so much fun! Grazing boards look so good! You did amazing Emily 💗💗
Set up a buffet spaghetti bar. Garlic bread. Garlic butter. Onions.Shredded cheeses.. Chili Beans and fixings. Sour Cream.Red Pepper flakes. Peppers,etc.....skip the salads and serve hot soup(s)
These are some great party hacks. Thanks so much I will give some a try. I will also be sticking around for more great recipes. Thanks new friend stay connected x

So pretty
I’m not into entertaining but still loved the ideas.
My favourites are the ice cream & jacket potato ones.
Great ideas❤ Thanks hun ❤
It looks beautiful Emily. My family like to play a game of who can eat the least and be full, so if i make anything like that it all goes to waste. Looks great though. Glad it was enjoyed
That is such a great idea,thank you Emily x
For our sons birthday we did an ice cream bar and used a small pool float and filled it with ice and it kept the ice cream nice and cool.
Yum yum yum. This is SUCH a good idea and so simple too! Thank you for sharing xx
That was so amazing..thank u for that tip🥰
Such a timely video !! We r planning my son’s first birthday soon 😄
I love the salami roses, and the dessert platter...you've inspired me to try these out for my partner's upcoming bday party. Thank you for sharing 🍓🍩🍭
Damn that looks incredible!! Great job thanks for sharing 😍😍😍
OMG i want to eat everything in this video ....looks good 👍
Such a great video Emily. We are in a middle of major covid wave here in India but I can’t wait when I can have friends and family over and try some of these.
The platters look amazing but no good for my cholesterol, all the same yum. x

Awesome tips!
Wow that looks amazing!!! Will definitely be trying that for our garden party!!!👍💞❤
You are AMAZING thank you for all the ideas. Definitely gonna try the ice cream ❤️

I love the ice Creme bar but wouldn’t it melt and get too squishy after a while ?
I did enjoy! Thank you Emily 😊
Everydid was gd some gd ideas
I love you so much and you are an amazing TH-camr and have such amazing editing
The platters look absolutely amazing❤👍 - like ordered from a good delicatessan
I love this! Thank you for always sharing amazing Ideas with us Emily. Can maybe do next time one for healthy eaters 😅 ♥
Lovely video x
what brand ice cream is that?
LOL. Buying all of this would cost a fortune!
I like that salami 😋 ❤️💖❤️💖
I envy living in a country where ice cream doesn't melt in 5 mins😭😭😭
Haha I envy living in a country living in a country where it does! It has rained the most of May in the UK!! Thanks for watching Seema xx
Wow the platters look amazing!!! I’m so going to adapt this idea- you made it look really simple 🙏
@@mrsemilynorris ha ha I’m with you there Emily. I would do anything for melted ice cream if it meant some sunshine 🤣 x
It's 10/12 degrees in our countries, usually I'm all in for rain and thunderstorms, but the weather gets a bit depressing lately. Think we had 3 days of sunshine in total since the start of spring😂😭
I love the idea! Thank you!!!
The platter looks amazing! But not good for my diet
You can try it with fruits and vegetables ^_^
I don't even know why I'm watching this as I don't have friends, but this video slaps! 🤣❤️
Food is a great way to introduce yourself to people. They really aren’t so bad once you get to know them. Maybe just a few at time. I’m very introverted so I can only deal with a handful before I’m overwhelmed and need a break.
@@user-vm5ud4xw6n let’s hope the one or two people aren’t a hand full. 🙃
@@k.v.6885 you have a point there. Sometimes it’s easier to deal with a crowd. They can calm down the ones who get a little cray-cray on you!
We can be friends hehe! Just smile more to the people!
It's nice to have friends. They can take your loneliness away. Some of them can make you feel special and you can do the same. Life is beautiful although it maybe painful sometimes.
They definitely look amazing, but they aren't not cost effective. They are super expensive to make, look at all the items were bought. 😮😮😮
Everything looks beautiful and delicious!!
Always full of the best ideas.... I can just imagine the fun and excitement in your house on the day of filming!!! Xx
Ha yes funny how keen they all were! Thanks for watching Lynsey xx
Now I just need a house with a garden so I can host a party and show off these cool catering 😂
Its so nice but this will not do in the philippines...this will be just the appetizer hahaha
hi
Yum hot potatoes are such a good idea for a crowd, this is what we make when we are out bush camping, they cook so well in the fire pit 😍
That whole thing with the fruit and the snacks on the plate, that's an awesome idea! Great tip :) 好极了
Great video. X
New registered from Italy💛I got fat just watching😂😘
O M G O M G O M G
I love this so much. So super cute... and wow.. it is the paradise for kids.
