Caprese Bites

Caprese Bites consist of cherry tomatoes, mozzarella pearls, and fresh basil leaves skewered together and finished with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. These small bites offer a fresh, tangy, and creamy combination of ingredients that work well as appetizers or light snacks.

Description

Each skewer holds a cherry tomato, a mozzarella pearl, and a basil leaf, combining bright acidity, creamy cheese, and herbal freshness in one. The optional balsamic glaze adds a sweet and tangy note that enhances the natural flavors. Preparing the skewers in advance and chilling them in the refrigerator allows the flavors to meld and keeps them fresh.

Caprese Bites can be served as finger food at parties or as a starter. Without balsamic glaze, they can be stored tightly covered in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. Once the glaze is added, consumption within 48 hours is recommended to maintain quality.
