Italian Roasted Tomato, Basil & Mascarpone Arancini Rice Balls

A luxurious sweet-and-savory blend of marinated tomatoes, fragrant fresh basil, and creamy mascarpone creates an elegant, upscale appetizer that will have your guests coming back for more.

Our classic Italian arancini deliver the perfect contrast: a golden, crisp fritter-style exterior giving way to a luxuriously creamy center of slow-cooked parmesan and herb risotto.

Served as a sophisticated passed hors d’oeuvre—plain or topped with a vibrant fire-roasted tomato sauce—they also make a delicious savory accent alongside salads or soup shooters.

Key Highlights:

•  Crisp exterior with a creamy, layered risotto center

•  Based on the traditional Italian arancini

•  Perfectly sphere-shaped fritter

•  Ideal as a passed hors d’oeuvre (delicious as-is or with roasted tomato sauce)

•  Excellent hot savory accompaniment for salads or soups

•  Vegetarian-friendly
