For an extra touch of elegance, consider adding a small sprig of fresh dill or parsley to each shrimp before serving. If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the crab filling. Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened to ensure a smooth and creamy filling. For the best flavor and texture, use high-quality crabmeat, preferably fresh or pasteurized. Adjust the amount of horseradish and hot sauce to your preference. Taste as you go!
