A Sweet Soiree! Our ladies event in Georgetown…


We had a wonderful time Saturday afternoon sipping cocktails and shopping with the girls at the LnCDC Ladies Soiree.  Modern Lounge in Georgetown was temporarily converted into a fabulous boutique filled with vendors sharing popular gifts and goodies.

                  

Guests got to nosh on lots of yummy treats and make their own goody bags from our shimmering pastel candy buffet.

Our yummy cake push-pops were a big hit with everyone and we got to debut some exciting pieces from our upcoming product line like our Candy Bar in a Box.

Red, White & Blue! July 4th Candy Buffet

I love the fourth of july!  Grilling out with friends, fireworks… and all the fun parties of course!  We had a very busy week styling celebrations for several patriotic themed events.

I love how the red, white and blue candy just pops!  So classic

The patriotic cake pops were a big hit.  We filled the candy jars with lots of yummy candies-  vanilla sprinkled taffy, cherry sours, crunch bars, almond joys, marshmallows, sour chewy stars, swirl pops, and lots more.

The kids really loved the smores bar.  We set out a variety of sprinkles and toppings for them to stick their melted

marshmallows in.  So much fun!

Sweet Event Design for Becky’s Fund Gold Cup

I could hardly wait to share the pics from our most recent adventure!  The Gold Cup Race is Virginia’s big Derby, bringing out all of Washington, Virginia and Maryland in their biggest hats and brightest preppy best for a day of equestrian excitement.  We had the pleasure of working with Becky’s Fund this year, designing  two sweet displays for the general admission and VIP tents they host.  Becky’s Fund is a national non-profit organization focused on domestic and dating violence awareness and education.  The Gold Cup “Investing in Hope” event was the 6th Annual Fundraiser organized by Becky and her team and draws a crowd of over a thousand to raise money, mix and mingle. 

The VIP dessert bar we designed was filled with decadent desserts.  Cake bites, chocolate truffles, cinnamon rolls, donuts, shortbread cookies and lots more spread across a yellow and black themed table setting with a beautiful yellow  floral centerpiece.

Glassine bags were labeled with Becky’s Fund logo.  Popcorn bags wrapped in yellow and green gingham filled planter tiers at each end of the table.

For the General Admission table we built a six foot horse topiary as the centerpiece and draped him with Becky’s Fund logo.  Yellow and green candies filled glass apothecary jars and displays of cookies, desserts and sweets planked each end.    Baskets of candy packs with business cards and Becky’s logo on the table were quickly scooped up by guests.  We made 1000 packs and they completely gone within a few hours!
