You're going to need cakes. Small and fancy.

If Ladies who lunch in America are anything like our lot, They are hyper-critical, like everthing dainty and are very impressed with attention to detail.
In other words, make it look like you a) spend all week preparing it and b) go overboard on presentation.

If you're making sandwiches, use good quality bread and cut off the crusts.

Choux pastries go down a treat, both sweet and savoury

A soft fruit platter would be a good idea. There are always folk who are being good.

Crudites ( raw veg with dips)

Cold meat platter and a selection of salads

Some kind of savoury pastry
