When my neighbour asked me to write a Canapé book, I was not quite sure what she meant. After some research, I quickly realised this book was going to be challenging. As usual, the questions started popping up in my mind.
What exactly is a canapé? Who would enjoy these little treats? What drinks go with canapés, and at what time of the afternoon or evening are they served?
Once I had the answers to these, and many more questions, I set about creating the written part of each recipe.
Then the fun part began. The part I love. Getting into the kitchen and trying them out.
Some were successful straight off the bat, others needed tweaking, and still, others required an entirely new approach.
In the end, I am delighted with the choices which are presented to you in the book.
I hope you will make some of these treats for your guests, and have as much fun as I have had while creating them for you.
I look forward to sharing more ideas in my next volume.
