Challenge Check-in: Make Catering Challenges a Cinch

Tackle your tough day with these simple solutions

Hospitality catering has its rewards, but it isn’t without challenges and constraints. Creating a great guest experience means successfully navigating things like team dynamics, trending tastes, and much more. To help make today run as smoothly as possible, General Mills Foodservice has simple solutions for your common challenges.

Short on labor and need to maximize efficiency and profitability?

Stock up on a single product that you can use in many ways that allow minimal prep time. For example, both biscuits and croissants are versatile enough to be used across day parts, and to deliver either sweet or savory tastes.

Need to dazzle a catered group?

Elevate a breakfast buffet from boring to buzz-worthy with easy-to-implement ideas like:

• Adding flair to muffins by baking in tulip liners
• Topping sweet scones with icing, sugar, fruit, or nuts — or really surprise guests with a savory scone
• Putting an unexpected twist on breakfast sandwiches by using flavored breads, like Pillsbury™ Garlic Cheddar Biscuits or transforming cinnamon rolls into paninis

Got a last-minute increased guest count?

Turn to the freezer to put this kind of panic on pause. With a variety of frozen and fully baked biscuits that just need warming, plus baked goods like Pillsbury™ Thaw and Serve Brownies and Pillsbury™ Thaw and Serve Belgian-style Waffles, serving quickly is a cinch.

Striving to reduce inventory waste?

Get creative in how you can make the most of your inventory. You might try breathing new life into leftovers or using existing ingredients in new ways. If you’re struggling to get started here, check out a few inspiring idea starters to help reduce waste.
