Top Caterers for Sweeter Valentine’s Day Events

One of the best ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day is through the language of food. From luxurious chocolates to cupcakes and sweets, food should be at the heart of this romantic occasion. Food speaks to the senses; it sets the mood, and creates lasting memories. 

Whether you’re planning a Valentine’s ball with candlelit tables, or bringing together various couples at another special event, Platter Up can ensure your day is extra special. From platters to grazing boards, we create beautiful food that’s mouthwatering and delectable. 

We appreciate that it’s not just about what’s on the plate; the experience, presentation and quality of the meal are what truly make the occasion special. Themed events are one of our specialities and we love making all life’s occasions special. 

Whether you're hosting a romantic soirée, a Galentine's Day bash on the 13th February, or a corporate Valentine’s event, Platter Up will ensure the food is top-notch. Let’s look at one of our most well-loved platters!

Our Valentine's Day Dessert Platter

One of our most popular choices is our Valentine's Day Dessert Platter. This gives you the chance to indulge in all kinds of yummy goodies, including salted caramel brownies, love heart biscuits, mini cupcakes with pink frosting, doughnuts filled with a rich and creamy chocolate filling, raspberry macarons, strawberries and cream chocolates, and heart-shaped confectionaries.

When it comes to Valentine’s Day events, we appreciate every detail counts. Not only are our platters overflowing with treats, they look simply exquisite. They make the perfect centrepiece for your table and will be popular on Instagram.

Understanding Your Vision

Before booking a caterer, think about the tone of your Valentine’s Day celebration. Is it an intimate dinner party, a grand event with live music, or a relaxed gathering? 

Working with clients in and around London, Platter Up takes Valentine’s Day dining to the next level. We work with you to bring your ideas to life, ensuring the food complements the romantic theme perfectly.

Whether you want to include fresh fruit like strawberries, or a more indulgent platter that appeals to our sweet tooth, we’ve got you covered. 

Creating Your Dream Menu

Valentine’s Day calls for something a little special. Look for caterers who offer versatile and seasonal menus, featuring dishes that feel indulgent yet balanced. We can accommodate various dietary requirements, ensuring no guests feel left out due to allergies or preferences.

Popular solutions include our grazing tables and platters, with our Valentine’s Day designs as pretty as they are tasty. They can feature a cornucopia of goodies, including Love Hearts sweets, heart-shaped marshmallows and chocolates. 

Food Personalised to Your Celebration

Platter Up is dedicated to tailoring our services to your needs. Whether you want a bespoke cocktail menu, creative canapés, or a signature dessert, customisation is key to making your event feel unique and personal.

Quality and Presentation

The best food isn’t just tasty—it’s a feast for the eyes too. Choose Platter Up and you’ll find that the presentation exceeds your expectations. Our sweet and fruit platters are perfect for this type of celebration. 

Value for Money

Valentine’s Day is a day for indulgence but coming so soon after Christmas, it’s still important to stay within budget. Many businesses want to treat their staff, but without splashing out to the same degree as during the festive season.

We offer a wide range of options for special events and businesses. Our caterers in London are dedicated to striking the perfect balance between quality and affordability.

Platter Up excels in crafting bespoke menus tailored to the occasion. Whether you’re envisioning a romantic dinner for two with an indulgent sharing platter, or a lavish buffet for a larger crowd, we can deliver.

From heart-shaped treats to elegant table arrangements, Platter Up knows that Valentine’s Day is all about the little touches. Our caterers pay close attention to every detail, ensuring the food and presentation match the mood of your event.

We can also provide stunning finishing touches, like flowers and foliage.

I have used platter up for a few corporate catering events over the last few weeks and I couldn't speak more highly of them. From clear images that truly represent the food, to the delivery always being on time with zero delays. The logistics side has been a breeze, making all these events so much less stressful. To top this off we have received brilliant feedback on the quality and taste of all platters we have received. A huge thank you to the team, the chefs and I will absolutely be using them again.

Rozalina Seiranian 01/07/2026

Such a good company!! We had an event today, and all the guests were delighted with the food, presentation, and service. As a manager I want to continue to work with the company, especially want to thank Luca for the great job.

Jamie Logan 26/06/2026

We were so happy with Platter Up's service. All the food arrived on tom, looked beautiful and was decorated and displayed really tastefully with flowers and dietary cards for each. The food was really fresh and a great variety of nibbles to choose from. We will definitely be using them again for our next event, highly recommend.

Marni Watkinson 11/06/2026

Excellent service from start to finish! Ordering was so easy thanks to the clear website and helpful platter photos. Delivery was on time with accurate tracking, and the food was fresh and delicious. A special thank you to Izzy who helped me arrange a smaller vegan platter to suit our requirements. The customer service was fantastic and made the whole process effortless. Highly recommend!

Emmily Dunn 10/06/2026

Super easy process – filled out the form online and received an email quickly with the options that would best suit my team. Was able to ask additional questions with ease and could go back and forth with additional requests. Delivery was efficient – I was hoping that the order would arrive a little earlier than I anticipated, however, it still came with reasonable time to allow me to set up everything before lunch. Absolutely outstanding food quality – everyone raved about the food and they thought it was the best catering they’ve experienced yet. Presentation was 10/10 and the quality of food was amazing. The freshest and best produce. Izzy was super helpful and accommodating to all of the additional requests and questions I had. When I called regarding the delivery whereabouts she followed up immediately with the driver and called me back straight away. Only critical feedback I have was that there was too much tape wrapped around the platters – made it really hard to unpack everything in a rush. But I do appreciate how well intact they all were to keep the presentation pristine. Will definitely be ordering from here again!

We were deeply impressed with the service provided by Platter Up for my mother’s wake. The quality of the food was exceptional, beautifully presented, and everything supplied was of the highest standard. Their professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail helped everything run smoothly during a very difficult time for our family. We are sincerely grateful and would highly recommend them.

Platter Up never cease to amaze with their creative and delicious displays. We recently used them for an internal celebration lunch and the aesthetic, quality and delivery of service was of the highest standard. We will continue to use Platter Up as a reliable service and perfect for many an occasion!

Alok Hisarwala Gupta 23/03/2026

I ordered a veg fruits, cheese and cracker platter for a small Eid party in Bethnal Green. It was beautiful laid out, super well organised, they had thought of everything, delivered on time and was a huge hit. The presentation was far too professional for me to pretend that I made it, that is my only complaint. xxx

Amanda Davie 20/03/2026

A great first experience of ordering from Platter Up for a corporate networking event. Easy to order online, a reassuring human touch of a phone call to confirm details, on-time delivery and high quality food and presentation. Thank you, Luca, Joanna and team!

Platter Up delivered absolutely brilliant catering from start to finish. The food was fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavour, and the whole experience felt professional, seamless, and stress-free. The platters looked stunning on the table and were a real talking point, guests kept commenting on the quality ingredients and the generous portions.
