Weddings, Showers…Catering For Your Event, Big Or Small

Planning any event takes a lot of time and energy. First you have to secure the venue, then you have to think about the decorations, and try to come up with a theme for your event. Once you have made those decisions, you have to think about the guest list, the invitations, and of course, the food.

No matter what size your event will be, the one element that every attender is going to remember is the quality of the food you serve. It doesn’t matter what type of event you’re having, whether it’s a wedding, a bridal or baby shower, or just a simple company party, everyone always looks forward to these events because of the food.

Sweet-N-Saucy Is A Great Place For Birthday Parties – Anywhere In The Elmira Area!

Winter is certainly upon us, and with temperatures and wind chills dipping well below zero at times, we hope you and your family are staying nice and warm!

Winter can be a tough season for kids. They long to go out and play in the snow, but because of the low temperatures, it’s not always safe to send them out – even if they’re dressed in their warmest clothes and snowsuits. For many families, planning birthday parties during the winter months, or taking their kids to their friends’ parties are great ways to beat those cold weather blues. If you or someone you love has a birthday coming up soon, and you’re in the Elmira, Horseheads, Corning, or Big Flats area we would love to help you celebrate their special day in style!

Let Us Handle The Work

Perhaps in your family birthday parties have always been pretty much the same. You bake a cake, you order a few pizzas, and you invite your kids’ friends to come over for a few hours for some fun. Having a birthday party sure is an awful lot of hard work, isn’t it? Not only does it take a lot of time to plan and pull of a party, but people don’t always like to stick around to help with the job of cleaning up afterwards, do they? In fact, sometimes your entire family can disappear, leaving you to deal with the mess!

A Sweet Celebration

When you choose Sweet-N-Saucy and the Wings of Eagles Discovery Center for your next birthday party, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at what you find. We’ll prepare a delicious menu that the kids at the party are going to just love. You’ll be able to get your fill too, because you won’t have to worry about running around after them, picking up the mess. Also, there’s nothing like a Sweet-N-Saucy birthday cake to help you celebrate that special day the right way.

The Wings of Eagles Discovery Center is a great place for birthday parties too, because the center itself comes with built-in entertainment for the kids – the airplanes! They just love looking at the amazing airplanes, and you’ll love that they’re entertained from beginning to the end.

Recently, we had the opportunity to host a birthday party here, and a few special pals came along for the festivities (and the cake!)

The kids had a blast! Of course, when it’s all over, there’s nothing for you to do except…go home! That’s right! We’ll happily clean up the mess, and you’re free to enjoy the rest of your child’s birthday in relaxation.

We would love to talk to you about how we can help make your kids’ birthdays extra special this year. For more information, or to start planning your next big party, contact us today!

Your Wedding: It’s The Details That Matter

Once the new year has arrived, it’s pretty common to hear about brides scurrying around, trying to tie up those loose ends as they plan for their weddings. Some of them have been planning their big day for a long time. They’ve searched high and low for the perfect gown, they’ve hired the right DJ, they’ve booked the church and the reception site, and they’ve done these things far in advance.

Other brides whose wedding days are quickly approaching are the ones who may have received their engagement rings on Christmas, or on New Year’s Eve, which are both popular times to get engaged. Some of them will wait a year or even two years to get married, but the others want their wedding day to happen NOW.

If you’re reading this post, chances are, you’re soon to be a blushing bride, and you want everything to be absolutely perfect when you walk down the aisle. There’s nothing worse than realizing there are some important details you forgot to take care of while you’re looking at your new husband, trying to concentrate on your love for him.

You know the details we’re talking about:

• The flowers
• The decorations
• The seating chart
• The thank you cards
• The honeymoon reservations

When these things aren’t planned ahead of time, or when you’re scrambling to make these plans at the last minute, it makes it really difficult to concentrate on enjoying your wedding day.

But what about the food?

One of the areas many brides and grooms have the most difficulty with planning is the food for their weddings. They want to make everyone happy, and yet they know it’s not possible to make everyone happy. It could be that their family members are dropping hints about wanting to supply the food for the wedding, but they just know that won’t go over very well. Of course, there are always the well-meaning friends who recommend this caterer or that caterer, but when they get more information about those businesses, there’s no way they could ever afford their prices. Not to mention, many caterers aren’t all that easy to work with.

The menu for your reception is a very important detail. If you ask anyone who has ever been to a wedding, they will tell you that one of the things they remember the most about that day was the food. They were either impressed by the selection, the presentation, and the taste, or they were planning to stop by a fast food restaurant afterwards because they were still hungry.

When it comes to wedding catering, the fact is, no one does it better than Sweet-N-Saucy in Big Flats, NY. We provide our customers with a customized planning experience. That means we’ll sit down with you and really listen to your concerns and your needs regarding your menu. We offer plenty of choices too, so you never have to worry about whether or not someone will be happy with the food selection. You’ll have a professional presentation of the food, and the taste will be beyond compare.

It’s your wedding. It’s your special day. Whatever you do, don’t entrust such an important detail to just anyone. Hire a caterer who is experienced in the industry, and who truly cares about the outcome of your reception. Our track record speaks for itself, and with Sweet-N-Saucy providing the food for your wedding, that’s one less detail you’ll have to worry about.

If you would like more information about our wedding catering, please contact us. Or, feel free to have a sneak peek at our catering menu. We look forward to hearing from you!

Don’t Put Off Hiring A Caterer For Your New Year’s Party

It’s hard to believe that Christmas is only a few days away, isn’t it? It sure does seem like the holidays seem to fly by faster and faster every year. Hopefully you have most of your shopping done, so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy Christmas parties and other holiday celebrations with your friends and family members. 

However, you won’t want to sit back and relax for too long. Many people wait until just after Christmas before they even think about what they’re going to do to celebrate New Year’s Eve. What about you? Are your plans in place? Do you always have a terrific New Year’s Eve party? Maybe a big party on the last night of the year has become a tradition for you, or maybe it’s a tradition you’d like to begin. Either way, it’s the perfect night of the year to get together with family and friends to celebrate your accomplishments during the past year, as well as to talk about what the year ahead has in store for you. 

You might have seen our post on what can happen when you fail to make adequate catering plans during a Christmas party. Without a doubt, New Year’s Eve is the biggest night of celebrations we see all year long. It makes sense to “do it up” right, and only work with the best catering company so you can avoid any disasters like we described in that disastrous blog post. 

What are your New Year’s Eve catering needs? Maybe you have a meal that you make for your family every year, but you’re not really good at baking. We’d love to supply you with a few of our incredible cookie trays, or even bake some pies or a cake for your family to enjoy. Or, perhaps you’re planning a big party, and you’re inviting lots of people you know from work. Whether it’s an intimate get together in your home, or you’re renting out a local hall to have your party, Sweet-N-Saucy in Big Flats, NY is available to take care of all of your catering needs. 

Once you visit our website, you’ll see that we have a great selection of meals to choose from, with just about anything you can imagine. You can browse our full catering menu to see what we have to offer. As far as service goes, you’ll get a personalized catering plan that designed for your specific needs. 

2013 has been a great year for us, here at Sweet-N-Saucy. We’ve moved into our new location at the Wings of Eagles Discovery Center, and our business has grown. We’d love to have the opportunity to celebrate the end of a great year with you and your family, while we look forward to an even greater year in 2014.

Please Support Small Businesses During The Holidays

It’s the holidays, and with Christmas right around the corner, shoppers are bustling around, trying to get everything they’ll need for the big day. Everyone is doing their last minute party-planning, and here at Sweet-N-Saucy, we’re busier than ever, working on fulfilling all of our customers’ wish lists for their holiday parties.

As you’re shopping, whether it’s the stores you choose to visit, or the restaurants where you choose to have your lunch, we’d like you to remember how important it is to support small businesses in the Horseheads and Big Flats area. Small businesses are the heartbeat of our community, and they help to keep us growing.

When you support small businesses, you’re keeping your hard earned money right here, within our very own community. When small businesses grow, the economy where we live grows too. That is so important.

Of course, there’s also something to be said about what you get when you visit a small business like Sweet-N-Saucy during the holidays, too. If you’ve gone out for a Christmas lunch at one of the surrounding chain restaurants recently, you probably weren’t very happy with your experience. At many of them, the food certainly looks better (and bigger!) in the pictures than it does when it’s actually delivered to your table. You may have also gotten the sense that the service at some of these places isn’t exactly spectacular.

Things are very different, here at Sweet-N-Saucy.

When you pay us a visit, whether you’re out shopping, you want to catch a quick lunch with a colleague, you’ll be treated like a friend from the moment you walk through our door, here at the Wings of Eagles Discovery Center. You’ll receive prompt attention, and once you take a glance at our huge lunch menu, well, you’ll probably take a while to decide what you’d like to have. However, once you get your meal, you’ll be impressed from beginning to end.

Be sure to stop in soon and try one of our delicious hot soups, which are perfect on these cold, winter days. If you’re planning a party and you haven’t found anyone to handle the food, we’d love to help you with that too. Our catering service is out of this world, and you’ll be so happy you choose a small business to handle your party rather than a business who isn’t as focused on your happiness.

Supporting small businesses this time of year is so important. Why not stop in and give Sweet-N-Saucy a try? We’re eager to see you, and you’ll be eager to come back for more.

The Centerpiece Of Your Wedding…The Wedding Cake

Your wedding day.

You want everything to be absolutely perfect. Why else would you begin making plans months, or even years, in advance? Your wedding is the one day of your life when you get to be the center of everyone’s attention and admiration. You take pains to plan out every detail. You try on dozens of wedding dresses before you find one that seems as though it was made for you. You quiz your friends and family members to find out which vendors they recommend, and which ones they suggest you steer clear from.

Little by little, every detail falls into place, although it isn’t without a lot of work from you. Your dress is perfect, your venue is perfect…

Then it becomes time to find your caterer.

Hiring a wedding caterer is very important because everyone will remember your reception by the food. What might be even more important, or at least equally important, is the selection of your wedding cake.

From the moment your guests walk into your reception hall, they will begin looking for the location of your cake. They’ll gather around it and ooh and ahh over its beauty, and each person will begin wondering what that first bite will taste like. They’ll talk about whether or not you’ll freeze the top of it to enjoy together on your first wedding anniversary. They’ll discuss how the cake-cutting ceremony will go too. Will you be nice and gentle with each other as you feed each other that first bite? Or, will you smash it into each other’s faces?

Yes, your wedding cake must be perfect too. That’s why you won’t want to entrust the making of your cake to just anyone. Just because your aunt promised you that she made a gorgeous wedding cake ten years ago, doesn’t mean that the cake she designs will be up to today’s standards.

When you choose Sweet-N-Saucy as your wedding caterer, we design every aspect of your reception according to your exact specifications and needs. That includes the cake. We love coming up with masterpieces for our brides and grooms. Making wedding cakes is one of the best parts of what we do, and it brings us great joy to see the delight on a bride’s face when she sees her cake for the first time.

If you’re planning a wedding in the near future, and you’ve been searching for a caterer in Big Flats, Corning, Horseheads, Elmira, or any of the surrounding areas, contact us. It doesn’t matter what size your wedding is. We’ve catered to small, intimate weddings as well as larger, more exquisite ceremonies. The most important thing is that you are happy with the results. We’ll make sure to surpass all of your expectations.

Our Cookie Selection Can Make Your Christmas Extra Special

Everyone loves the holidays. No matter which one you celebrate, this time of year is really special for almost every family. What do your holiday preparations consist of? For most of us, it’s trimming the tree, wrapping presents and making baked goods to share with friends and family.

For many people, it’s making Christmas cookies that takes the most time. It would be one thing if you could just pick a kind that you really like (like peanut butter or chocolate chip) and just spend a Saturday making a big batch of those. However, as you know, there’s a lot more that goes into Christmas cookies than just making one big batch of the same kind.

How many weekends this month will you spend looking up recipes, purchasing the ingredients, putting everything together only to realize you forgot something essential, running back to the store, throwing a batch out because the kids distracted you and your burned some…you get the idea.

Baking cookies can be a real hassle, but everyone loves them. Whether you want to be sure your cookie jar is stocked for the holidays, you’re participating in a cookie exchange, or you’re having a Christmas party, you have to have them.

But you don’t have to bake them.

Sweet-N-Saucy in Big Flats, NY has an incredible cookie selection that you purchase to complete your holiday baking, all at once. Wouldn’t that be fantastic? Even if you usually just go to the grocery store and buy some of their Christmas cookies, you know it’s not the same as when you have some that are homemade, and baked with love. That’s what you get when you choose one of our cookie trays.

Also, it doesn’t matter where you live in the Twin Tiers. We have customers who come to us from all over – Corning, Painted Post, Elmira, Horseheads and all over the area. We’re located right in Big Flats, in the Wings of Eagles Discovery Center. So, we’re easily accessible for you too.

Wouldn’t it be nice to spend your weekends enjoying your friends and family this year, instead of being stuck inside baking all day long? When you pick up a few cookie trays from Sweet-N-Saucy, that’s exactly what you’ll be able to do. Contact us today so we can help you make your Christmas cookie selection!

Homemade Baked Goods For All Of Your Holiday Parties

It’s that time of year again! The holidays always bring out the joy in everyone. People love going to parties, making treats to bring to work for their co-workers to enjoy, and buying gifts for everyone on their list.

However, making your own baked goods for this time of year can get pretty time-consuming. Think about it. How many dozens of Christmas cookies, desserts and pies do you think you’ll be baking? If you’re like most people, all of that work really cuts into your holiday shopping time. Not to mention, pies and cookies can be difficult to make, and they don’t always turn out the way you want them to.

Take your pies for example. Maybe you’re one of those people who have a tried and true recipe that’s been passed down through generations, and each year, you make baked goods that are the centerpiece of the party. Most of us don’t have that type of skill in the kitchen. In fact, we would rather get our baked goods from a place that creates homemade pies and cookies that will taste great, and free us up to focus on other things around this time of year.

If you’re looking for a way to save your sanity in the kitchen this year, we have great news for you! Sweet-N-Saucy in Big Flats, NY has everything you’ll need to put on a beautiful baked goods display. It doesn’t matter if you’re in charge of the desserts for your office Christmas party, or if you’re having a small get together in your home for Christmas, there’s no need to fret about whether your desserts will taste good. Here at Sweet-N-Saucy, homemade pies are our specialty, and we’ve been serving our customers in Elmira, Horseheads, Corning, Painted Post and Big Flats for years.

This year, don’t tie yourself down to the kitchen. Instead, spend time with the people you truly care about, and make each of your shopping trips count. Let us handle the desserts for that big party, so you can really enjoy the holiday season.

If you’d like to place your order for our homemade pies, Christmas cookies, or other delicious desserts, we’re waiting to hear from you! Contact us today!
