Our appetizers & snacks catering
We do not only make delicious snacks, canapés, appetizers and bites, but we also try to make the “snacks” fit in as well as possible with the nature of the catering, the event and the group of guests.
Catering of snacks, canapés and small dishes with or without service
We deliver our snacks with or without chefs or service staff. We can also deliver simple cold snacks on a scale. We are happy to make a catering proposal with options for you to also order service, chefs and materials from us.
Snacks service 'drop off'
Snack service as a drop off. You order snacks and we deliver them to you on scales. You only have to remove the foil and they are ready to serve. Warm snacks are not getting any better on transport and that is why we only provide cold snacks as a drop off service.
Canapes & chef
Do you want something more than a simple cold snack and perhaps that the snacks look like small dishes or that they are passed on hot or luke warm? Then one of our chefs comes along to provide on-site presentation, a correct temperature and a good distribution
Appetizers for your party
For the catering of your reception, drinks or party, our snacks are usually part of a full service catering with service, chefs, materials and drinks. Sometimes our clients arrange a part themselves and that is of course also possible.

Our appetizers: different and incredibly tasty
New clients often ask us, “How do your appetizers differ from those of other caterers?” A reasonable question, because if you’re ordering bitterballen and vlammetjes, it doesn’t really matter who’s frying them.
Our appetizer catering stands out because of the unique flavors. We don’t serve the standard Indonesian chicken satay (although that’s available upon request), but instead, for example, chicken skewers in a chili-honey-ginger marinade, which has become a favorite with many of our clients. Our Jack Daniels marinade for chicken skewers is also a hit.
In addition, we offer mini burgers in five different variations and a variety of vegetarian appetizers, such as bites with homemade paprika relish or a mousse made from peas with coconut and Thai basil.
Homemade appetizers for special diets
More and more, we’re asked to provide appetizer catering in Amsterdam for guests or colleagues with special dietary needs: vegetarian, vegan, keto, or gluten-free.
Our appetizers consist of a wide range of variations with multiple ingredients, which can sometimes make it a bit more challenging than simple snack platters. However, thanks to our years of experience, we handle this well and make sure it’s flavorful.
For a selection of seven appetizers, we ensure that at least four options are suitable for everyone. The great thing is, meat-eaters often enjoy the delicious vegetarian options as well.
For the remaining three appetizers, we create alternatives that cater to specific dietary needs. This way, everyone can enjoy the appetizers at the reception or party without making the organization too complicated.
It’s helpful if you let us know how many guests have dietary preferences when requesting the appetizer proposal. Our chef can then adjust recipes or come up with alternatives, so your guests get more than just carrots or hummus! The earlier we’re informed, the better we can ensure everyone can enjoy the food.
Snacks, nibbles, and bites.
Not all clients are looking for luxurious canapés that we build in four or five layers and serve on a tray.
When the venue isn’t ideal for warming up appetizers or when the occasion calls for something simpler, table garnishes or nibbles are a great alternative.
We serve these simple snacks by placing them in small bowls on the table, allowing guests to help themselves. Think of nuts, olives, slices of dried sausage, or skewers with simple combinations. The simpler the snack, the easier it is to deliver as a ‘drop-off’ snack service.
Delicious snacks from the Amsterdam region
Would you like typical Amsterdam snacks and appetizers? No problem, we can do that! This goes beyond the classics like Hollandse Nieuwe or the bitterballen and croquettes from Kwekkeboom.
On our snack menu, we include the ossenworst from Slagerij Louman. Since we find raw meat a bit too plain, we roll it into a ‘ball’ coated with chives and serve it on a crostini with truffle mayonnaise and a silver onion from Kesbeke.
The dry sausages from Brandt & Levie are sliced thinly and presented as table garnishes on standing tables. Of course, we also make skewers with cubes of cheese from the Boeren van Amstel.
