APPETIZERS AND, INC. company was founded in 1967 when George King (a chef) and Pat Domanik (a caterer) began creating fresh hors d'oeuvres for local Chicago hotels.

As the demand increased, they began offering their products frozen, which allowed them to increase their scope of distribution and provide timely response to their customers' needs. Appetizers And, Inc. now has distribution across the country and a direct sales force serving every major U.S. city.

Their freezing process is state-of-the-art and the packaging is innovative and designed for maximum customer convenience. Items are packaged in 25 piece trays and 100 count cases to match the typical menu, which is written in multiples of 100 pieces.

Customer safety is a key concern. Appetizers And, Inc.'s USDA-inspected and HACCP-certified facility utilizes a sophisticated quality control process which is further supported by independent laboratories.

After more than 30 years Appetizers And, Inc. is still owner-operated. Each hors d'oeuvre and cold canapé is an extension of George and Pat's hand-crafting, just as in the beginning. Both Appetizers And, Inc. and Testa work to ensure that only the best comes out of our customers' kitchens. To that end, we guarantee that the product is as wholesome as one "made-on-premise."

Since 1983, the Ciao Bella Gelato Company has been dedicated to creating the very finest frozen desserts. They began as a neighborhood gelateria in Little Italy producing gelato and sorbet. Soon, chefs from top restaurants and hotels requested that Ciao Bella supply them with their desserts.

Ciao Bella's consistently high quality and ever growing galaxy of innovative flavors has made it the brand choice of chefs. Ciao Bella has made high-end versions of cool classics as well as custom flavors for discerning chefs for nearly twenty years.

Sorbet: A blend of 70%-80% fruit accompanied by water and sugar to achieve a smooth consistency. Ciao Bella's sorbet does not contain any colorings or any other artificial ingredients. The sorbets are also dairy-free, fat-free and cholesterol-free (except coconut and chocolate which contain natural fat and milk).

Gelato (jeh-laht-o): Italian-style ice cream. Ciao Bella contains 20-25% air by volume, compared to 60% in most American brands, and contains only 12% butterfat versus 16% in typical ice cream. Ciao Bella's gelato, based on a family recipe from Torino, Italy is primarily hand-made in small batches with high quality ingredients. As a result, the gelato is smoother and creamier in consistency, with a dense texture and an intense flavor based upon lower butterfat.
