Festive crackers

The start of the Christmas season is quickly approaching and it pays to be ahead of the curve when preparing for the festive season. At Catering Supplies we have a wide range of exciting new crackers that are sure to be the show stoppers of the season.
One of our favorite crackers, the new 14” Deluxe White & Burgundy Merry Christmas cracker (19113) is in a rich burgundy and white colour design with unique scallop edges.
We also have our Trussell Trust charity crackers, where Tom Smith support a donation of £2 for every case sold of kraft crackers from the Bidfood range. Providing you with a variety of colours, sizes and fun contents.
Top tip: one of the best ways you can save money is to bulk buy your Christmas crackers in advance. Not only does this allow you to take advantage of discounts, but it also ensures you’re prepared for the festive season without last-minute stress.*

Christmas but on the go

Yule be pleased to know our Christmas cups have had a change up since last year. Featuring a kraft look with a mix of traditional Christmas images including snowmen, stockings and snowflakes. Available in three sizes and comes in a mixed pack so you can experience all three eye catching colours.
Top tip: these Christmas cups are not just great for your festive drinks offer but they can also be used for serving soup too!
Great at keeping drinks warmer for longer with their thermal properties, constructed with sustainably sourced double wall board with a plant based PLA lining, meaning you can rely on no spills. Finish off your drinks with a (11656) moulded fibre lid perfect for on the go, made from reclaimed sugarcane fibre pressed into hot cup lids.
