Canapes are soft in nature and are best served immediately or they tend to turn soggy. Also, remember to bake them instead of frying as this cuts down the calories making it a healthy meal.

DIP Baked Canapes are available at a lot of store in India, however, if you are struggling to find it you can order them on Amazon.
