canapés
canapés …. static …. nibbles ….?
For many events its not as simple as staff circulating with canapés, whether that be due to the style of the event,
location or budget.
For smaller more intimate events it can feel more natural to have a static selection of canapés artistically displayed on a table or side rather than staff interrupting your guests. Alternatively if you still want a small nibble for your guests but either time or budget doesn’t allow for the service of canapés then a selection of interesting savoury nibbles may be the answer.

A canapé should be beautiful, bite sized and taste phenomenal. These menus offer just a few examples that we can use as a starting point to develop a well balanced and considered menu for your event. If you have particular favourites and specific ideas we’d love to hear about them. Similarly talk to us about dietary requirements, we welcome the opportunity to come up with fresh ideas.
