Frequently asked questions

What food is good for Bonfire Night?
Bonfire Night food is all about warming, hearty, easy-to-eat dishes that suit a chilly evening outdoors — comforting classics you can hold in one hand while watching the fireworks. The traditional favourites: hot dogs and sausages in rolls, burgers, jacket potatoes (lovely and warming), and big pots of chilli, soup or stew served in mugs or bowls so people can warm their hands. For sweet treats, the seasonal classics are toffee apples, marshmallows to toast, parkin (a sticky ginger cake), flapjack, and bonfire toffee. And hot drinks are essential on a cold November night: hot chocolate is always a winner (especially with children), along with mulled apple or mulled wine for the grown-ups, and flasks of tea, coffee or soup to keep everyone warm. A few hosting tips: make things like chilli, soup and bakes ahead so you're not cooking on the night, choose easy one-handed foods since everyone will be outside and standing, keep drinks hot in flasks, and have plenty of napkins and warm layers to hand. Sort the food in advance and you can relax and enjoy the display with everyone. Whether you're hosting a garden gathering or feeding the family before a public display, warming comfort food is what makes Bonfire Night cosy.
