As your party is winding down, serve guests a round of gelato, pre-scooped into decorative cups and topped with a wafer.
These decorative nut cups are the perfect serving size for gelato or ice cream, paired with mini spoons. The nut cups come in so many cute colors and patterns — here’s your chance to use a variety!

Bruschetta is a perfect party food — it’s easy to make in large batches and can be made ahead and chilled until party time. Serve along side your favorite artichoke dip and a variety of breads and crackers.

Serve with a sliced baguette or other breads. This recipe is flexible — make as much or as little as you need.
