Congratulations to Jonathan & Michelle

Congratulations to Jonathan & Michelle

Jonathan and Michelle said I do in a beautiful Catholic Church out in sunny Joshua Tree. Following this joyous event was an amazing reception at the vast backyard of their own personal home that they renovated and designed. Surrounded by family and friends, they danced with each other as the sun went down. Guests enjoyed unique and various salsas that we made as their appetizer paired with colorful organic tortilla chips, along with unique spritzers to quench their thirst under the warm sun. In addition, served were the bride and groom’s requested desserts representing some favorite flavors growing up, such as Milo brownies and Portuguese egg tarts.

Congratulations Richard & Nicole!

Surrounded by family and friends, Richard & Nicole had their dream wedding in Cerritos followed by their beautiful reception out in Orange County, California. With 90’s R&B playing in the background, guests watched as Richard & Nicole celebrated many of their firsts together this night as a newlywed couple. On our end, we delivered a colorful array of desserts for the many guests. Strawberry was the bride’s favorite flavor, so this was incorporated into the strawberry cheesecake squares. Mango was the groom’s favorite, so a mango mousse was created, topped with a buttery tuile cookie, mango jellies, and whipped cream.

Congratulations Melissa & Ben!

Situated off of Huntington Bay, with a beautiful backdrop of the marina, Ben and Melissa had a gorgeous spring wedding. The dessert table was full of their favorite desserts. The bride wanted some Asian inspired items and a variety of pies. The groom’s favorite flavors are peanut butter and chocolate, so we tried to incorporate these into the menu as well.

Tutus and Ballerinas

How can you say no to this face? She asked her parents for a pink ballerina themed birthday party for when she turned three and that is exactly what she got. Also, some cookie decorating time with her little besties! What more can you ask for? (probably a lot more, but we won’t go there.)
