Will it capture every photo from my catering Facebook page?

No. It can use recent post images that are publicly visible, along with the cover photo and profile image. Photos hidden behind Facebook’s login wall, limited to certain audiences or stored in non-public posts are unavailable. Make your best wedding, buffet and canapé images public before creating the first video.

Can the video show several catering menus?

Yes, when the public page provides photographs or text covering those menus. A mix of wedding dishes, corporate lunch trays, sharing boards and desserts gives the video useful visual range. The first video follows the site alone; later videos can use a prompt to prioritise a particular menu or event type.

Should I use vertical or horizontal video for catering ads?

Choose vertical 1080x1920 when viewers will encounter the catering ad in a phone-first feed. Choose horizontal 1920x1080 for wider placements or pages where landscape event photography fits better. Both formats render at 30fps in H.264, so the decision should follow the placement and the shape of your strongest food photographs.

How should I add a trending sound to my catering video?

Use the supplied sound link and attach that sound natively when you publish the video. The sound is not baked into the file, because uploading a video that merely contains the audio does not count as using the platform’s sound. This keeps the catering video connected to the correct sound listing.

Show your catering spread in motion

Sizzledraft turns a caterer’s Facebook page into a short video ad built from public event photography, menu posts and business details. It captures the page in a browser, uses its visible branding to author each scene, then renders the video frame by frame with normalised audio.

Can I make a catering video ad from my Facebook page?

Yes. Give Sizzledraft the URL of your catering business’s Facebook page, and it visits the page in a headless browser. It captures the public cover photo, profile image, recent post images and visible About text, then builds scenes using the colours and visual cues it can identify. For caterers, the strongest source material is usually clear event photography: a finished wedding table, a canapé tray, a grazing board or a staffed buffet. Public menu posts also help the video show range rather than repeating one type of dish. The first video is cut from the page alone, so check that your public posts represent the events and menus you most want to book.

What should a caterer show in the first few seconds?

Lead with the food at its most complete and recognisable. A wide photograph of a wedding breakfast, colourful buffet or corporate lunch spread tells viewers what you provide faster than a logo or kitchen shot. Follow it with contrasting menu images, such as canapés, plated mains and desserts, to establish range without turning the video into a long catalogue. Your Facebook cover photo matters because it may supply the opening visual, while the profile image helps identify the business. Keep key booking details in the public About text so the video can connect the food to your service area or event type. Later videos can accept a prompt, letting you focus one version on weddings and another on office catering.

What video file do I get for promoting my catering service?

You can receive a vertical 1080x1920 video for short-form placements or a horizontal 1920x1080 version for wider screens. The file renders at 30fps in H.264, and its audio is normalised to -14 LUFS. That gives photographs of table settings, plated courses and buffet displays a consistent video treatment while keeping the export practical for common social placements. If you want to use a trending sound, Sizzledraft hands it over as a link so you can attach the sound natively when posting. It is not baked into the exported file, because baked-in audio does not register as use of that platform sound. Plans cost $19 for two videos or $39/month for eight.

What the browser actually gets

Our browser can capture the Facebook cover photo, profile image, public recent-post images and visible About text. Facebook places much of its content behind a login wall, so private, restricted or login-only posts cannot supply footage; the first video uses only the public material available on the page.

The common mistake

A common mistake is opening with a logo while the best wedding spread or buffet photograph appears later. Put the strongest complete event setup first, then use the profile image and business details to identify the caterer after viewers have seen the food.

Strong buffet, canapé and plated-service photos are scattered across posts instead of arranged into one clear sales story.
Showing menu range quickly is difficult when weddings, corporate lunches and private parties all appear in the same Facebook feed.
Important event photos and menu details may sit behind Facebook’s login wall, leaving only public posts available for an automated video.
