Tips to eat Canapes gracefully

As the trends evolve, canapé catering has become an integral part of every cocktail party, weddings and corporate events. These bite-sized morsels are considered as the best thing to start your party with. The different tastes and textures of canapés are packed with flavor.

Canapés are fun to eat but, mastering the art of eating this finger food is something. Not being a proper meal, it is not easy to judge how many canapés you should consume. The count becomes even more difficult when your glass is always topped up. However, it is really important to eat just the right amount that you need to absorb the alcohol.  

Some catering services in London can estimate the exact assumption while it may be daunting for other service providers.

In this article, we have discussed the art of eating a canapé right. Read on these steps to know:

·        Take a napkin in your hands.

·        A canapé is eaten in one mouthful. That is why it is known as a bite-sized morsel.

·        Don’t speak while your mouth is full. Speaking while you eat is not considered good etiquette. Even if it is something urgent, like alerting your guest about something, make sure to cover your mouth with your hands.

·        If you find the canapé near you too cumbersome, let it pass. Wait for something that is easy to manage.

·        If it is a pre-dinner event, make sure not to fill you up fast. In England, it is considered rude to consume even two!

·        If the canapé you have picked is on a stick or spoon, look for the place to dispose of them in the tray or hold on to them until you find a suitable place to throw them away.

·        Once you have taken a bite, never dip your canapé back into the sauce.

·        If the tray is still going around, never put the half-eaten canapé back into it.  

·        It is important to thank the waiting staff while they are serving you around.
