Anyone who hosts a party with a selection of homemade canapés is certainly raising the bar when it comes to social engagements. While most people would leave it to either professional caterers or some oven-ready supermarket offerings, pushing the boat out and working from scratch will produce delicious, bite-sized morsels that blow the others out of the water. With hard work and effort, you can recreate the feel of a professionally catered party for a fraction of the cost.
