FAQs

What’s the difference between Vanilla Blue’s event catering and office catering?
Office catering is designed for everyday workplace needs such as meetings, team lunches and morning teas, often with convenient drop-off service. Corporate event catering is suited to larger or more involved occasions where timing, presentation, staffing and service need additional planning, including conferences, product launches, networking functions, awards nights and client events.

What’s included in a fully managed event?
A fully managed event can bring your food, staffing and service requirements together under one plan. Depending on your event, this may include menu planning, chefs, waiters and bar staff, drinks, presentation and selected extras such as floral arrangements. Our events manager works through the details with you so you’re not left coordinating each catering element separately.
map pin icon
How far in advance should we book corporate catering?
The earlier you book, the more flexibility you’ll generally have around menus, staffing and service options, particularly for larger events and busy periods. Lead times depend on your date, guest numbers, venue and requirements, so it’s worth contacting our events team as soon as your plans begin taking shape. If you’re working to a shorter deadline, get in touch and we’ll let you know what’s possible.

Budget Management

We provide a comprehensive, itemised quote upfront so you can clearly understand the costs involved. As every menu is tailored to your event, our Events Manager will work closely with you to meet your target budget while maintaining the quality and experience your occasion deserves.

Dietary Accommodations

Dietary needs are thoughtfully considered from the start, with clearly labelled individual options and a wide range of vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and other dietary-inclusive choices. Our corporate catering team carefully manages dietary requests so alternatives feel just as considered and enjoyable as the rest of your menu.

Fresh and Locally Sourced Ingredients

Vanilla Blue is committed to reducing food miles. We take pride in using the freshest ingredients purchased from our trusted local suppliers for corporate event catering in Sydney’s CBD and beyond. Our dedication to quality ensures that every bite is filled with vibrant flavours, making your event a culinary occasion to remember.
