1. The Appetizer Store
The Appetizer Store
Very delicious, high-quality appetizers hand made for your enjoyment! I love this company and the attention to detail. They offer a wide variety of appetizers from elegant to casual. For your next New Year's party or Governors Ball try the Caramel Apple with Goat Cheese 'Purses', Lobster mini-pot pies, or the Arancini (Italian rice balls) with a gooey, Gouda cheese center. For a casual family get together or football party I recommend the Mini Cheeseburgers, Butter Pecan Shrimp, or Asian Short Rib mini-pot pies. Their cheesecake pops are absolutely scrumptious!
I was very impressed with everything I tasted. Shipped frozen and you bake, but everything tastes very fresh and restaurant quality. They also have a very tempting Appetizer of the Month Club. The prices are reasonable and the customer service is excellent! It's like have an entire kitchen of trained chefs working for you. It's hard to find anyone better at the mail-order appetizer business. Highly recommended.

Huge variety of appetizers to choose from.
