Buy a packet of croustade shells, some sandwich fillers from the chilled counter and fill the shells with the sandwich filler.

I've done tuna and mayo with a sprinkling of paprika, smoked salmon and cream cheese with a bit of dill and salsa (home made) with coriander to garnish. Looks very profesional!

Also cocktail sticks with cherry tomato and mini mozerrela boll with a basil leaf is nice. Can go retro and put them in the grapefruit half to make a hedgehog.

Blinis with smoked salmon, cream cheese and caviar.

Breadsticks with proscuitto ham twirled round the end.

Blinis! Now there's an idea.

little bits of stuff on cocktail sticks is always a winner. food looks good, and is easy to eat.

you can do it as soapbox suggests, or with bits of fruit.

Enid, you need to have a look at the starter selection on Nigella.com! Snigger at 'summer solstice cheese!'
