Everyone loves a good canape! After all, nothing lifts an event more than a platter of enticing starters and finger foods. But even though we tend to associate canapes with savoury flavours, there are also plenty of delicious sweet canapes you can enjoy, whether you’re upgrading an important meeting with office lunch delivery or keeping guests entertained before a sit-down wedding breakfast. Here are some ideas to try:
Chocolate brownies with berries
Everyone loves chocolate brownies, so why not serve trays of chocolate brownies and maybe a few white chocolate blondies in the mix! Add fresh berries onto each platter to make them look beautiful. Your guests can add to their taste experience with slices of fresh chilled strawberries and perhaps a few mint leaves for a fresh flavour and a pop of contrasting colour? You might not get these through expenses for your office lunch delivery order, but it’s always worth a look at what Crumbs Delivered can bring to your office door for your next team meeting!
Fruit skewers with a chocolate dip
Fruit skewers are always popular and it’s not hard to see why! They look beautiful, they’re healthy and they’re very easy to prepare. You simply need lovely chunks of fresh, chilled fruit threaded onto skewers, and you can then add a dish of chocolate sauce for dipping. Absolutely perfect.
Miniature shortbreads
Mini shortbreads are a great choice because they are easy to make and serve – a real treat with hot drinks and also surprisingly robust, so you shouldn’t end up with a big tray of broken biscuits! You can also easily create vegan-friendly and gluten-free shortbreads, as well as experiment with more unusual flavours such as elderflower and lavender, particularly if there’s an opportunity to tie into an event theme. Serve them warm from the oven for extra points!
These delicious sweet canapes will delight your guests and keep them engaged at your event. Just remember to add napkins for easy service and cater generously to meet your guest numbers. You’re very unlikely to find any sweet canapes left at the end!
