Ok, I'm looking for some ideas of tiny tempting tidbits (either bought or made) to serve up on a platter, after the kids have gone to bed.
Starting point is strawberry champagne...;).

Hey MD
Have a look in the new Better Homes and Gardens mag you've got - there is a recipe for mini hamburgers (stylish ones though ;))
Yummy chocolates, antipasto plate, fruit platter.....
I quite like mini meatballs on toothpicks with a sauce (and you can romantically feed each other ;)), or if you're after a dessert... chocolate fondue with a platter of berries and marshmallows.
Leasha, I'm loving the things on sticks theme. Also like the idea of a fondue, I'd thought of the melted choc but maybe it needs something to keep it melty.
Jazah - mini hamburgers :lol: Will have to OPEN the magazine then, won't I?
Feeb - mmmmm salmon! Not keen on the oysters tho :p
i hate oysters also bit dh loves them!! I think they r snots!!!!! Lol charming i know
wow leasha i love the idea of chocolate fondue and marshmellows! YUM!
How about some lindt balls!
yep... it can even lead to some other romantic escapades... messy, but romantic ;) :p :D all you need is a little paintbrush ;)
We just did this the other night.. but we didn't have an entree as such..
Dh cooked me Reef and Beef and for dessert a yummy banane bread and butter pudding with caramel.. simple and easy (well he cooked it so I don't know I assume it was easy lol)
No suggestions but just wanted to say woot woo MD.
:lol: Well you can woot woo all you like, supper might be all he's getting yet ;). He owes me three months worth of woo-ing!!:
Update: I found this King Island Dairy belgian chocolate thingy that'll be perfect for dipping (saves me working out how to do choc fondue)! Also got some fresh dates (mmmm) and almond bread, and of course some chocolates. Mmmmmm I was tempted to test out the choc thingy for dipping consistency today but I thought I'd better not or there won't be any left! :lol:
I can confirm it is good dipping consistency! Sensational. ;) Like a creamy mousse i guess.
Is this the LAST sleep??? wooooooo hooooo for you. :D
I'm not really a sweet tooth (I know, go figure!) so something tapas-like would really rock my boat. Like mini rice balls with a tomatoey sauce and some chilli garlic prawns and some sort of gooey cheesy mess. And more mini stuff and more gooey stuff. Yum.
ohh that choc mouse stuff is YUM YUM YUM we just eat it with a spoon never tryed dipping but it would be good i am sure.
You can get some heart-shaped moulds and cook either some cakes with pink icing or some cheeses (fruity cream cheese) are nice too.

Fiona, oh I'm drooling now. I've never learnt how to do tapas and canapes but I agree it's the best yummiest food possible! Oh dear maybe it will have to be a two-course supper!
Kazbah, love your heart shaped suggestions and I didn't think of the fruity cheese but agree it would be sensational.
One of my fave things to do with strawberries, is marinade whole strawberries in cointreau then dip in creme fraiche or sour cream and then dip in brown sugar. Sounds weird but it is absolutely DIVINE!
