Posted by Peter Webb on 17th Oct 2024
Spring is finally here! The air is buzzing, flowers are blooming, and it's the perfect time to gather with loved ones for special occasions. Your calendar might be overflowing with activities like Easter Brunch, a Mother's Day soiree…and graduation parties ...and weddings as well as Father’s Day not far behind. Whew. Creating a beautiful and memorable event can require many elements but you know the one thing these all have in common is fabulous food. The kitchen is usually the center of family gatherings so along with comfort and joy, set a fun stage for everyone to graze.
Kalmar Home is a brand we decided to partner with because they offer stunning and practical serveware. Their products can be used for celebrations year round, even if you’re only commemorating the end of a long week with some binge watching. For now, we want to look at how this durable acacia serveware can elevate your spring celebrations
Picture-Perfect Easter Treats
For Easter Brunch, replace your usual platter with the Kalmar Home Acacia & Ceramic Charcuterie Serving Tray. The natural, handcrafted wood warms the table, while the ceramic dishes keep your spread organized and visually delightful. Check out the side groove, too. It’s the perfect size to hold crackers, chips, or any utensils you may need.
Beyond the go-to meat and cheese, some bolder selections might include a variety of pickled vegetables and fruit (think watermelon rind, grapes and peaches) or a well chosen selection of olives. Here is an inventive idea to transform a classic spring fruit into a savory delight from Well and Full. Kids of all ages, no matter how many decades old, love a build-your-own dessert bar! S’mores, sundaes or a cupcake decoration station are all messy classics. Share the love from the Easter Bunny and spread out some jelly beans and chocolate candies. Open your possibilities even more and try the Acacia & Ceramic Condiment Set as a perfect complement to the charcuterie serving tray.
Spoil Mom in Style
Mother's Day is all about celebrating the special woman in your life. Show her how much you care with a beautiful bedside table scape featuring the Kalmar Home Square Serving Tray. The convenient handles make it easy to bring the entire spread to her. It also serves as a convenient companion to any room in the house. Use it as a catchall for books and reading glasses or a distinguished office desk organizer. Acacia wood travels well everywhere. She may just enjoy this tray more than breakfast in bed!
Arrange an assortment of her favorite treats – think delicate pastries, fresh fruits, and maybe even a few wildflowers in a small vase or bottle. We found a fun recipe kids can help out with that is sure to impress mom. Try this Triple Berry French Toast Bake from That Bread Lady. Mom will be so proud!
Beyond the Platter:
Kalmar Home isn't just about trays! The Ribbed Salad Bowl Set is the ideal vessel for serving a refreshing spring salad at any of your gatherings. The included utensils make tossing and serving effortless, while the ribbed texture adds a touch of elegance to your table. We definitely recommend the optional individual bowls.
Celebrate the season with the best it has to offer such as asparagus, peas, radishes and fresh herbs. Spring gardens have a way of bringing freshness of the season into the home, but if you’re not a greenthumb, a local market might offer an easier way to collect this earthy goodness. We found out how to create spring in a bowl with this recipe for a Bright Spring Salad from Love & Lemons.
Effortless Entertaining:
Kalmar Home serveware requires only minimal, easy care. Crafted from durable acacia wood, each piece requires just a simple handwashing with mild soap. This means a quick cleaning and it's ready for the next celebration.
Invite Kalmar into your home this spring. You’ll love it.
