Tipping the caterer

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I own my own personal chef business that occasionally caters different small events. I don't employ anyone else, so all the food preparation/presentation/serving of food/breaking down is done by me.

A few times I've been asked by clients if they should be tipping me on top of the fee that I charge for my services and I wasn't really sure how to answer. Of course extra money is nice, but it's not something that I expect.

Do any of you accept tips?
If so, how do you graciously communicate that to your clients?

Gratuities are not expected, but are graciously accepted.

My answer used to be"

"A gratuity or tip is for exempleary service rendered, I leave that to you":D

This way you put ball in their box.
