The Ultimate Guide to Crepe Van Catering

Who doesn’t love a good crepe!? They are versatile, quick, cheap and (most importantly) incredibly delicious. This makes a crepe van the perfect catering choice for any occasion. The beauty of the crepe is that you can fill it with whatever sweet or savoury filling you desire. In fact, it is the variety of fillings that makes the crepe unique and distinguishes it from the traditional pancake. Though we have to admit, we love a pancake too!

Crepes’ rise in popularity has also coincided with health-consciousness. They can be tailored to meet many dietary requirements. For example, using buck-wheat flour instead of regular flour makes them a great gluten-free option for your guests! You can even swap milk out for water or a plant-based alternative. Therefore, with so much flexibility, you’ll be bound to find a crepe that fits everyone’s tastes.
