Cracking festive canapés & cocktails to impress your guests

Festive season is here, bringing parties and indulgence, but Christmas food doesn’t have to be heavy. Eggs are the secret ingredient for simple, flavour-packed canapés and cocktails that impress, without the fuss. Naturally rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, eggs are the perfect base for light, feel-good festive entertaining.

Delicate salmon, pea and avocado egg rolls are a fresh, elegant bite combining creamy avocado, sweet peas, and smoked salmon wrapped in a soft egg crêpe. They shine alongside a bright cranberry sour, with zingy berry notes that cut cleanly through the richness for a refreshing festive pairing.

For a show-stopping centrepiece, baked veggie scotch eggs arranged into a charming Christmas-tree display offer a playful twist on a classic favourite and a fun, protein-packed way to bring British Lion eggs to the table. Serve alongside an Eton Christmess cocktail, where sweet strawberries and light meringue lift the canapé’s flavours with a festive, fruity flourish.

Finally, no Christmas party spread is complete without creamy devilled eggs, a nostalgic favourite with smooth, tangy richness. Pair them with a golden eggnog made using British Lion eggs, which ensures that even though the egg whites are raw, they are safe and delicious.

So, crack on with the celebrations!
