Mixed Fatayer in 28, 40 or 50 Pieces: Which Size Fits Your Gathering?

When you order fatayer for a family lunch or a majlis, the first question comes before anything else: how many pieces are enough? Too few is awkward in front of guests, and too many ends up in the fridge. Karam Sweet offers four mixed fatayer options, and this guide helps you pick the size closest to your guest list. What does "mixed" mean? A mixed box combines different varieties in a single order instead of repeating one kind. For hosting this helps: every guest finds something to their taste, and you do not need several boxes to vary the table. The varieties inside each box are listed on the product page, so check it first if any of your guests avoids a particular filling. Sizes available in the store Fatayer 28 Pieces : the size our customers order most, suited to small family gatherings. Fatayer Basket 36 Pieces : arrives in a basket, so it can go straight to the table. Fatayer 40 Pieces : a middle option for medium gatherings. Fatayer 50 Pieces : for bigger occasions, or when fatayer is the main dish. How to work out the right number The figures below are general planning estimates, not store specifications. What a guest eats depends on the time of day and what else is on the table. Light hospitality with tea or coffee: two to three pieces per person. Fatayer as part of a buffet with other dishes: three to four pieces per person. Fatayer as the meal itself: six to eight pieces per person. For example, at a buffet with other dishes and four pieces per person, the 28-piece box serves seven guests, the 36-piece basket nine, the 40-piece box ten and the 50-piece box twelve. For light hospitality at three pieces per person, the 28-piece box serves about nine guests, the 40-piece thirteen and the 50-piece sixteen. When to choose each size Small family or friends visiting The 28-piece box is enough. It leaves room on the table for sweets and coffee, and the leftovers stay manageable. A gathering that should look put together The 36-piece basket solves presentation, because it goes on the table as it is. That helps when guests arrive before you finish arranging the dishes. Medium gatherings and the office The 40-piece box gives a comfortable margin if the number of guests changes at the last minute, which happens often. Large occasions The 50-piece box is the best fit. If you need more than that, combine a 50-piece box with a smaller one instead of ordering two large boxes, so you can fine-tune the quantity without waste. Tips before you order Order well ahead of the time you need them, and check the product and checkout pages for the preparation and delivery times available in your area. Add something sweet such as individual cakes or coffee sweets to complete the spread. You will find them in the store's categories. If children are coming, count roughly half a portion for each. When you are between two numbers, go for the larger size. Quick questions Is the 28-piece box enough for ten people? As light hospitality at about three pieces each, yes. If the fatayer is part of a buffet, the 40-piece box is the safer choice. Box or basket for serving? The basket is ready for the table, while the box is easier to carry and store. Should I always order the largest size? No. Choose by guest count and type of hosting, and use the estimates above.
