About The Blonde Butler

The Blonde Butler started in 2015, when Alex Cadger began cooking private dinners in clients' homes with hospitality operator Jeremy Horne. The business became known for abundant grazing tables and cheese spreads dressed with flowers, moved into a commercial kitchen, and since 2020 has run from a large catering kitchen on Parramatta Road in Annandale. The team is now around thirty strong, with chefs, event managers and drivers, and caters private parties, weddings and corporate events across Sydney, including launches for fashion, media, tech and automotive brands. The 2026 menus are set out as packages. Cocktail parties start with six canapes for about two hours, then add a substantial and a bowl for longer events, from sliders and karaage skewers to beef cheek rendang. Sit-down dinners come as two or three plated courses or a shared-entree format. Shared-plate and buffet packages build around focaccia, main dishes and sides, and events over 30 guests can add carving or taco stations. Grazing tables come as cheese, brunch, seafood, finger food or a bespoke design, and vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free dishes are marked throughout. Events are handled by an event manager, with chefs and waitstaff on site, and delivery is free to most Sydney locations for chef-attended events. The business holds a liquor licence and offers three-hour beverage packages with RSA bartenders, and can hire glassware and bars. A deposit secures the date and final payment is due seven days out. For smaller, casual needs, the Boxed by Blonde Butler range delivers ready-to-serve platters with 48 hours' notice.
