Champagne and Canapes - A "Welcome to the World" Party

One of our very lovely friends K & M has been blessed by the loveliest and most chilled-out baby that we have met, beautiful Amelia.  So the Hubby and I were more than delighted to cater for their "welcome to the world" party, with a special theme of canapes matched with champagne. 

We were also extremely lucky that one of K's friends is a very talented photographer.  So for the first time since Rachey started getting paid to cook, we have beautiful photos of some of our "signature" canapes.

Here's the menu and those amazing photos:

Smoked chicken & aioli in filo cups


Tartare of tuna and goat's cheese


Wild mushroom pate on mini Melba toasts


Roasted scallop with lime ginger butter on Chinese spoons


Sweet corn fritattas with creme fraiche & salmon roe

Also included in the menu were garlic prawn and/or chorizo mini skewers with gazpacho in shot glasses, and individual strawberry zabaglione with mascarpone and amaretti biscuits. 

So thanks K & M for supporting Rachey Cooks!  :)
