Yule love these festive bites!

Easy canape ideas

Smoked Salmon Blinis

Blinis are small fluffy pancakes that make a classic canapé base and can be topped with almost anything. A festive favourite is smoked salmon and cream cheese – perfect for Christmas topped with fresh herbs, a touch of lemon, or even a dollop of caviar for extra luxury.

Goat’s Cheese Crostini

Spread creamy goat’s cheese on crisp crostini and top with tangy cranberry sauce or grapes that you’ve roasted in the oven for 15 minutes. The sweet and savoury combination is a festive delight. Add some fresh thyme or rosemary for the perfect finishing touch.

Mini Prawn Cocktail Cups

Miniature prawn cocktails in crisp lettuce leaves or small cups are a nostalgic and elegant option. Make an easy, tangy Marie Rose sauce by mixing mayonnaise and tomato puree to set off the succulent prawns.

Fig and Prosciutto Wraps

Fresh figs wrapped in prosciutto offer a delicious balance of sweetness and saltiness. They’re easy to assemble and add a touch of sophistication to your festive spread.

Finishing flourishes

For extra flair, garnish your canapés with festive touches like ruby red pomegranate seeds, finely chopped chives, a sprig of rosemary, or a sprinkle of cracked black pepper. A few thin slices of radish, some edible flowers, or a dusting of parmesan can elevate any canapé.
