I am giving my daughter a sweet 16 and I am stuck on the menu. The theme will be Tiffany and Co. What are some good food menu items for teens? There will be a candy buffet and cake as well. I don't want to get food that they will pick over. Also, how many menu/food items?

It's a great time for a cookout,pizza buffet, Smoking Bar-b-cue!
Silver dollar pancakes
Yukon Gold potatoes.
Copper coin carrots
Silver tip roast.
You get the idea!
How many people are invited? The amount of food needed will depend on this.
Definitely keep with the Tiffany theme on all little details. Id go with one or two main food choices and the rest just snacks. Teens love snacking, as do I lol.
Tiffany Blue skewered rock candy (can order online)
Strawberries dipped in white chocolate (add a light blue food dye to the white chocolate to make them Tiffany blue)
You could also use this blue white chocolate to make dipped pretzels or pretzel sticks, etc.
Blue punch: using 1 part Hawaiian Punch Berry Blue and 1 part Countrytime Lemonade. It tastes just like a jolly rancher :).
Chic fil A chicken nugget platter you can NEVER go wrong with nuggets
*or*
Burger sliders
*or*
A sub/wrap tray from Subway or somewhere similar
A small fruit platter
And then just some chips, and snack items. Maybe a dip (French onion, rotel, Alabama caviar, etc).
If you wanted to splurge, you could get some sugar cookies made with blue icing and your daughters name on them ( ex. Sarah & Co. ). And then a few that resemble Tiffany boxes. Big batches can get very pricey, so you could just spring for a smaller amount.
Also, I think this would be a nice touch to the decor. Buying the plastic silver cutlery and plastic silver platters that look so real from a distance would make it more fancy and definitely more Tiffany & co. You could even order some bags of plastic play diamonds to decorate the table with.
Hope this helps! Let us know how it turns out! Happy Birthday to your daughter!
sandwiches and chips...even Audrey Hepburn ate them ;-)
Probably at least 4 savoury items and 3 sweet ones? Shrimp appetizers, mini cheese quiches, chocolate covered strawberries. Cute elegant mini foods!
What a great theme!! Blessing to your daughter! 16 is very special!!
Here's the menu to the Tiffany Blue Box restaurant--I love the name:

Take a guide from them...fresh fruits, croissant, fancy waffles (who does not love breakfast any time of the day), scones and cute tea sandwiches. Then amazing dessert bites.
Post back what you decide!!
Blessing to the birthday girl!
If you want to keep this completely Tiffany and Co it will be items such as strawberries, pancakes and more towards the breakfast type of menu for your table. However, teens are no so into these types of food and they love stuff like chicken wings and fries, pizza, and anything with cheese like cheesy noodles.
