Canada Day is upon us, and what better way to celebrate than with a festive picnic under the summer sun? Whether you're heading to the park, the beach, or your own backyard, we have what you need for a delicious and picture-perfect spread.
Patriotic Plates and Decor:
-
Embrace the red and white theme! We have a wide selection of plates, napkins, and servingware in classic Canada Day colours.
- Don't forget the festive flair! Look for fun Canada Day-themed decorations like streamers, balloons, and even mini Canadian flags to add a touch of national pride to your picnic setup.
Picnic Perfect Food and Drinks:
-
Appetizers: Pack some charm with appetizer-sized plates and serving platters. Fill them with summery starters like bruschetta, a refreshing salad or put together a cheese plate.
-
The Main Course: For the main course, consider easy to serve foods. Quiche cuts easily. Finger foods like mini burgers on pretzel buns, or flavourful chicken kabobs with a variety of grilled vegetables are great, too.
- Desserts: Cookies are easy to handle. If you've scored a picnic table, crown it with a classic red and white Victoria Sponge sandwich cake.
- Drinks: Stay hydrated in style with Le Creuset insulated water bottles for the whole crew. Pack a pitcher of fruit-infused ice water or your favourite summer beverage. Or you can always pack a nice bottle of wine in a chilling sleeve with some sturdy wine glasses. Don't forget the corkscrew!
Picnic Packing Essentials:
-
Utensils: Don't be caught without cutlery! Pack mixed colourful open stock flatware for a touch of elegance, or grab a pack of disposable cutlery for easy cleanup.
-
Storage Solutions: Keep things organized with handy storage containers. We have a great selection in various sizes – perfect for packing leftovers or transporting all your picnic essentials.
- Waste Disposal: Responsible picnicking is a must! Pack a roll of kitchen garbage bags and recycling bags to keep your picnic area clean.
Bonus Tip: Don't forget the fun! Pack a frisbee, soccer ball, bubbles for the kids or a deck of cards for some post-meal entertainment.
