About Short & Sweet by Q
Short & Sweet by Q is a family-run catering business in St Peters, led by qualified chef Qinaa, a mother of three who built the business around fresh, home-style cooking. The focus is food that suits a party crowd of both adults and little ones: sandwiches, mini pies and fruit platters, with a sweet course to round things off. Grazing tables and custom cakes can be ordered too, so one supplier can look after the savoury spread and the celebration cake. For children's birthdays, the team runs activity party packages lasting two hours. Themes include tie dye, a high tea party and jewellery making, and each package bundles the activity with catering, delivered at your home or at the event space you have booked. The party is shaped around the birthday child's interests, and extra guests can be added to a package for an additional charge per child. Office parties, family gatherings and milestone birthdays are all catered to order. Menus and quantities are worked out with you for each event rather than sold off a fixed list, so get in touch by phone or email with your date, numbers and what you have in mind, and Qinaa will come back with a menu and a price. Frozen pies are also available to take home for later.
