(cont)...
*  Cucumber & carrot sticks (I added these to the list last minute I had the veggies there, they were a hit)
*  Mud chocolate cup cakes with chocolate sauce (Vegan & GF - a big hit even with non vegan & GF guests)
*  Butter cup cakes with jam swirls and white chocolate gnash (a big hit)
*  Fairy bread
*  Fairy wands from http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/9872/fairy+wands (a hit)
*  Candy table with marshmellows, skittles, smarties, cool mints, jaffas, freckles, werthers original, sprinkle tiny teddies & sugar-coated almonds from http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=958.15 reply #17 for guests to pack a take home mini noodle box.
*  Softdrink, juice, tea, coffee & water.

I think that is all.  I was very glad I didn't take on more cooking tasks leaving it so last minute.  I think I had a reasonable coverage of things for the different people to eat.

Thanks again for all your suggestions - they were very useful.

 :)

You deserve a medal rubyslippers - I think I'd get new friends  :o :o :o :o :o

Great choices for them.

Just think, some restaurants have groups that roll in & then say they have allergies/intolerances like these.  any restaurants now ask when taking bookings.  You may get a job as a dietician.  ;) ;) ;) ;D

lol Thermomixer.  I married into a family full of allergies.  Not much I can do about it other than learn and go with it!   :) But thanks for the laugh & compliment.
