No caps needed. It's a common noun. Of course, you'd capitalize the H if it was the first word in a sentence.

The problem with this answer is that it does not address the situation where hors d'oeuvres is written in the title of an event, in which case all the words need to be capitalized. My hunch is that the question gets it right, capitalizing the H and O.
