Del Prado Family Health and Fun Day

This event was dedicated to the childhood fight against obesity at Del Prado Elementary School. We had a blast interacting with the kids and having them help us make yummy and HEALTHY snack! We even heard a few of them say "This is really fun"

What we made: raspberries and blueberries with a strawberry balsamic glaze topped with greek yogurt and fresh nutmeg!

We also got to debut our brand new sister company, DivineDining, T-shirts! Thanks Monique @Antisparkle.com

Allie’s Bat Mitzvah

We had such a great time helping Allie and her family put together her Neon Bat Mitzvah!! All of her neon decorations, especially the glow sticks where a huge hit with the guests and people enjoyed looking through all Allie's photo memories:).  It was our pleasure to be part of such a blessed occasion. 

The Brunch menu had it all from Blood Orange Glazed Salmon Squares to Mac N Cheese Balls.  We even designed a special White Chocolate Cupcake Tower with Chocolate A s on top.  

Allie's Torah portion was beautifully moving and her singing voice was most impressive too. Congratulations Allie Everyone is very proud of ya!!!
