Appetizer would be something to get you in the mood for food. In France many people drink Pastice (a drink that tastes like aniseed) before dinner as an appetizer. Therefore, it is called an apéritif. An hors d'oevre is a small snack that you can find at parties (where the waiters walk around and serve you teeny tiny bits of food), and an entree is a starter, so the first course of a meal.
Your answer: apéritif.
H'ors d'ouvre or entre
Definitely NOT "apéritif," which is a drink before or after dinner.
The correction translation is "hors-d'?uvre" (this hyphenated compound word is invariable, i.e. it does not take the mark of the plural: des hors-d'oeuvre).
Another fun word for small sandwiches, crackers, etc. one might serve with the above-mentioned apéritif is "amuse-gueules" or "amuse-gueule" (both forms are acceptable in the plural).
Technically speaking, a "canapé" is a slice of bread on which certain dishes or garnishes are served, e.g. "?ufs sur canapé," although in common usage the word often refers to a small sandwich eaten in one bite.
