Tips
For these appetizers, it’s best to use the freshest ingredients you can find. Look for bright-red, plump tomatoes, shiny olives, and leaves that aren’t wilted.
You can leave the carrot peels on if you like, but if you’re using large carrots, they might taste biter.
The bread used for the flower appetizers can be toasted before using. Not only will it create more texture, but the bread will also hold its shape better.
You can make all these appetizers ahead of time. Slice all the pieces of bread and vegetables, and assemble the appetizers. Place on a large sheet and wrap with plastic wrap. Dot the ladybugs with balsamic glaze just before serving.
