Champagne breakfast


A champagne breakfast is a breakfast served with champagne or sparkling wine. It is a new concept in some countries and is not typical of the role of a breakfast.
It may be part of any day or outing considered particularly luxurious or indulgent. The accompanying breakfast is sometimes of a similarly high standard and include rich foods such as salmon, caviar, chocolate or pastries, which would not ordinarily be eaten at breakfast or more courses.
Instead of as a formal meal the breakfast can be given to the recipient in a basket or hamper.

Occasions

As part of a day where scheduled activities have been arranged, the breakfast may be served early in the day, or even at sunrise. The breakfast may be as part of a cruise or tour.
It can be a part of honeymooning couple's itinerary, or stay at a hotel, when it may be delivered to the couple in bed. This can also be a part of Valentine's day or a Valentine's Day holiday package. It's also common at the end of a ski holiday.

Celebrations

The breakfast can be delivered or served to someone as part of any treat acknowledging the person's worth, such as Mother's day,
or as a celebration of an event or achievement. A champagne breakfast was even fed to Red Marauder when the horse won the Grand National.
It may be a tradition at some colleges for graduation, such as Wells College and Bryn Mawr College. People may be awarded a Champagne breakfast as part of winning a competition.

Business or charity

The breakfast may be hosted as a means of attracting people for the launch of a business, or a charity fundraiser.
