Can you pre-order the fruit tray on the Costco deli catering order form?
Availability varies by regional warehouse. Most locations keep grab-and-go fruit trays stocked in the deli chill cases daily. For major holidays or weekends, some stores allow you to reserve them via the paper order board located outside the deli kitchen alongside party sandwiches and chicken wraps.
How many guests does a single Costco fruit tray actually feed?
A typical 4-pound fruit platter comfortably serves 12 to 16 guests as part of a varied buffet spread. If fruit is the primary sweet dish or served at a brunch event, plan on one platter per 8 to 10 guests.
How far in advance can you buy the fruit tray before an event?
For peak presentation, purchase the platter no more than 24 to 36 hours before serving. Storing it past two days causes sliced melon to weep excess liquid, which softens nearby strawberries and grapes.
