Canapes and bite-sized finger food
A canapé, according to the Concise Oxford Dictionary, is
'a small piece of bread or pastry with a savoury on top, often served as an hors-d'oeuvre'.
We extend canapés to include items of bite-sized finger-food.

You'd have a variety of canapés either with drinks as a classy snack,
or as a teasing taster for more substantial fare.

We've listed some canapés below to give you an idea, but typically you can just tell us
  • how many varieties you want
  • how many need to be vegetarian
  • how many hot ones you'd like
and let us do all the worrying!

Canapés - in a tartlet, or on a bread or biscuit base
Note that all of these must be prepared immediately prior to serving

(V) Mango, red onion and lime salsa on philly cheese
(V) Red-onion marmalade on creme fraiche
(V) Olive paste topped with cheese, roasted pepper and artichoke hearts
(F) Scallops and sweet chilli sauce on creme fraiche
(F) Rare tuna and ginger on mayo
(F) Smoked salmon, avocado and capers on soured cream
(M) Pastrami with baby gherkins and chilli on horseradish cream
