Mini Caprese Skewers

Mini Caprese Skewers are the perfect one-bite appetizer for any event — elegant, effortless, and universally loved. Fresh mozzarella, sweet cherry tomatoes, and fragrant basil, all drizzled with aged balsamic glaze and premium olive oil. These require zero cooking and come together in minutes.

Ingredients (makes 30 skewers): - 10 oz fresh baby mozzarella balls (bocconcini) - 10 oz mixed cherry tomatoes (red, yellow, orange) - 30 fresh basil leaves - 3 tablespoons aged balsamic glaze - 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil - Flaky sea salt and cracked black pepper - 30 small wooden skewers or cocktail picks

Instructions: Thread each skewer with one cherry tomato, one basil leaf (folded), and one mozzarella ball. Arrange on a large platter. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and olive oil. Finish with flaky salt and cracked pepper.

Pro Tips: Prepare skewers up to 2 hours ahead and refrigerate uncovered. Dress with balsamic and oil just before serving so they stay fresh and glossy. Use a variety of tomato colors for a more visually striking platter.
