Interesting, I am coming to know of mantras for offering food to god.
I've been watching my family offer food to god since I was a little child, and I myself offer food to deities for a long time now. All that I say is, "O god, (god's name), please accept this offering" and then say, 'naivedyam samarpayami' and sometimes 'Shodasopachaaram Samarpayami'. That's all.

Dear MS,
What I meant (and the OP was about) is this - what do we recite or say when we are offering food to god - as in presenting it to gods with a mantra.
My answer: I will say 'naivedyam samarpayami, shodachopachaaram samarpayami' and offer the food to each god that is in my shrine. That is, I will repeat this every time to each different god and ask him/her to take my food.

Think about food... is one offering food-stuffs or really the tattva-s ? And what of sattvic food vs. other food. And what of smell , taste, touch and sight ? What is offered there ?
And what of the wholeness of the food being offered ? and the proper mind set.
Think through what the essence of the offering really is.
