Appetizer Elements
Bellwether Farms’ Fresh Sheep Cheese Logs come in 5 fabulous flavors – Original, Strawberry Preserves, Orange Marmalade, Moroccan Spice, and Sonoma Herbs – making it easy to choose one sweet and one savory for this appetizer board. Made in Sonoma County, CA the superior taste, texture, and nutritional value come from whole sheep milk, which is gentler on digestion than cow’s milk cheese.
Maine Crisps have a crispy-meets-chewy texture that pairs wonderfully with the soft cheese. The gluten-free crisps are made with 100% Maine-grown buckwheat, which is a regenerative crop, so you can feel good about helping the environment while you snack! They are available in 4 flavors, including Cranberry Almond, Wild Blueberry Walnut, Cinnamon Maple, and Savory Fig & Thyme.
Soom Dark Chocolate Tahini with Sea Salt adds the perfect pop of rich chocolate flavor along with a smooth, decadent mouthfeel. Made from sesame, a plant-based protein, tahini will start your new year off right. Plus, this flavor has only 4 ingredients and 67% less sugar than the leading chocolate spread. The sister-owned business offers 5 flavors of tahini, which are all vegan and gluten free.
OMG! Pretzels lend their crave-worthy crunch to this appetizer array. The Sweet Chili flavor complements the dark chocolate tahini and the flagship Garlic Pretzels are great on their own or with a schmear of cheese. The seasoned sourdough pretzel nuggets are carefully crafted and are always baked for a healthy, positively poppable snack. Owned by a mother-daughter duo, OMG! Pretzels offers 8 bold and innovative flavors.
