Strawberry Amaretto Pastries -- Advice Needed

[Joyful]

I'm hosting my Grand Opening tomorrow and I'm planning to make the Strawberry Amaretto Pastries recipe that came in my kit. They are yummy but very messy. Any advice on how to serve them? I don't mind getting my fingers gooey but I don't really want my guests to have to eat them that way.

Should they be finger food? Knife & fork?

Thanks for any suggestions.

I made them in advance & cut them in halh, they were so much easier to eat. If you are going to demo them, I would say they tend to be messy, so I am going to cut them up for you....HTH

I always make the puff pastry in advance at home and bring them to the show done, I explain how to make the pastry showing the tools I used. I then demo the filling. Then I show the guests how to put them together and they come up and fix their own. Eat with a fork and enjoy.

I made them last year for an open house and just pressed down on the top to make them stick together a little better and not fall apart so easily. Then I used the mini serving spatula to serve them. It wasn't too bad, though you should probably make sure you have a good stock of napkins available just in case.

Just make them bite-size so guests can eat them with their fingers in one bite!
