Your questions

How many pieces per person for an appetizer dinner?

Plan 10 to 12 bites per person when appetizers replace dinner, and 4 to 6 if a meal follows.

What to serve at midnight on New Year's Eve?

A sparkling cocktail or a mocktail, with a few chocolate treats: truffles, mendiants or mini dessert cups can be served without a plate.

What alcohol-free drink for New Year's Eve?

An alcohol-free blood orange spritz or an apricot and lime mocktail, served in pretty coupes, is just as festive as Champagne.

What can I make ahead for December 31?

Verrines, puff pastry bites ready to bake, desserts and cocktail syrups can all be made in the morning or the day before.
