The Story Of How I Become A Melbourne Caterer
CarmEli Catering is a fully licensed Melbourne caterer specializing in gourmet finger food, canapés, tapas & beverage catering, established in 2012 under the name CarmEli Old Fashion Cooking as a "chef to your door" service.
CarmEli is made of a combination of my grandparents' names, Carmela and Eli. My passion for food and the inspiration behind CarmEli Catering has grown while spending much of my childhood with both.
Our logo was created in 2013 using the original photo of my grandparent's wedding 🥰 and represents our values and beliefs.
Half Spanish half Moroccan family, life means being dedicated to spending time at family gatherings and holiday feasts, cooking delicious food together and hosting HUGE events such as weddings, birthdays, and others. We take pride in catering quality food and drinks.
My love for nature and art is expressed through my beautiful food creations, and my cultural background is the key to the flavours and aromas of our delicious food.
A Melbourne caterer with an environmentally friendly approach and services designed to provide you with an impressive catering experience at minimal waste.
With 27 years of experience overseas and in Australia, we have much to contribute to your wedding day, corporate event or private event and guarantee you won't regrate choosing CarmEli Catering as your Melbourne caterer because we are all about bringing people together 🤗
