Effortless Entertaining with Muffin Tins!

We love coming up with fresh ways for entertaining guests at our client bashes and our own dinner parties and celebrations. There’s something so fun about hearing guests ooh and aah about simple ideas that are entirely creative and festive. Muffin tins are one of those household items that usually have one purpose: baking. We’ve spotted a few ways on Pinterest to reuse muffin tins: as ornament storage, flower pots and ice cube trays, but why not use them to serve up delicious bites to guests or as centerpieces with tea lights and blooms?

Use the slots for apricot jams or herbed butters, crackers and walnuts. Stack delicious cheeses ready for nibbling and arrange in the center of your party tables – they can be passed easily and look so fun, don’t you think?

Some of our favorite family memories are those that have us all gathered around tables visiting, playing games, noshing on treats and just relaxing. We’ll be using this idea for our next hosted family bash – a fun twist on family-style eating and visiting.
