Top Three Most Popular Appetizers by Ensemble Catering

Picture this: It’s your big day, you just finished saying “I DO” at the altar, and now it’s time for cocktail hour! You head over to the new space, grab yourself a refreshing beverage, and now you’re hungry. It’s time for appetizers! The question we always get is “what is your most popular appetizer” and that is an easy question to answer! 

We recommend a couple different combinations: 1.) One hot and one cold appetizer or 2.) One meat and one vegetarian appetizer. In giving your guests these different options, you can guarantee everyone will have a bite!

Bacon-Wrapped Potato Bites

Your guests are sure to love these tried and true favorites. We start with thick cut warm potatoes and wrap them with savory bacon, baked to perfection, with a dollop of sour cream on top. These bites pair well with mule cocktails and always disappear first in cocktail hour, so make sure that you get a bite before your guests finish them off!

Bruschetta

This cold appetizer is a classic! We start with a crunchy buttery crostini and top it with diced tomatoes and a shred of parmesan cheese. A drizzle of balsamic to top it off brings all the flavors together. This pairs well with a crisp and cool white wine, so grab yourself an appetizer, a glass of wine and enjoy cocktail hour!

Spinach Swiss Puffs

For a vegetarian option, spinach Swiss puffs are a great way to ensure all of your guests have an option to get their veggies in! This is a warm, flaky puff pastry filled with sauteed spinach, imported Swiss cheese, fresh herbs and a touch of walnut. This pairs well with a pale ale beer.
