The Antipodes Partners Limited office in Barangaroo had a solid morning spread going by the time everything was set up. The bircher muesli overnight oats cups sat alongside the vegetarian croissants and the ham and salmon croissants, giving people something to actually eat rather than just pick at. That combination tends to work well for a team that arrives at different times, because nothing was sitting there getting cold or drying out.

The cocktail pies and rolls came into their own a bit later, with the morning and afternoon tea platter bridging the gap between the two. Mini muffins in two packs, mini lamingtons, mini sweet tarts, and a share box of 24 pieces meant the sweeter side of the table stayed stocked longer than a single platter usually would. The lamingtons in particular tend to go quickly in office settings, and having that volume made a difference.
