Savoury aperitif ideas
A successful aperitif does not have to keep you in the kitchen for hours. Many of our recipes are quick to prepare and will impress your guests. A great favourite is the Avocado brick pastry tartlets, which can also be made in a vegan version. The Savory choux puffs, the Pesto flutes and the Cannelés chorizo-parmesan are perfect bite-sized treats.
For something more refined, try the Salmon-prawn terrine, the Tuna Savarins, the Mini pepper entremets or even the Foie gras macarons. The Madeleines with Kiri are a hit with children and make a nice change from sweet snacks.
Savoury bakes and bread
This category also includes savoury bakes that are easy to adapt for your aperitif. Our Swiss classics, the Savoury Bricelets and the Vully Cake with Bacon, are much loved. You will also find:
- Homemade Pretzels and Sils croissants, which you can fill to make mini sandwiches
- Hamburger buns that taste so much better homemade
- Focaccia and Vegetable Focaccia for sharing
- The Fir-bread with garlic, a festive pull-apart bread
The Savoury Aperitif Tart, the Mushroom Tart and the Olive and Sun-Dried Tomato Cake are ideal for a light dinner with a salad, and the Sweet potato hummus and crackers are great for dipping.
Tip: serve your savoury bites with refreshing drinks such as fruit juices, wine or a cocktail to round off your aperitif.
