Please click on the type of food below that interests you. Click on the title once more to close the expanding box that opens.

We’re constantly working on new recipes and adding new ideas all the time, so you’re not limited to what we’ve listed here.

We can give you lots more suggestions but just to warn you, sometimes too much choice makes the decision too difficult!

If you’ve got a particular requirement, ideas of your own, or if you’d like your food to be themed in some way, please give us a call. We serve our canapés on grey slate, square white, black or silver lacquered plates and large wooden trays with leather handles. For buffets we use big silver bowls and white china.
