Valentine's Day is a "sweet" time of year, and our goal is to make it just a little bit sweeter. We are focusing on one of our favorite pairings that is forever tied to hearts, cupids, and all thinks pink and red: strawberries and champagne. In addition, we'll be featuring tropical fruits, nuts and seeds, and intense flavors to help you survive the cold winter days.
Imagine, if you will, a strawberry cheesecake truffle. It's just as good as it sounds. We're equally as excited for the passionfruit & black tea truffle, made with SenTeaMental Moods Chicago Passion tea. In caramel-land, we have pineapple ginger, and sesame blood-orange.
$25 includes libations, savory bites, and all the chocolate you can handle. Plus, you'll be the first to try our as-yet-unlaunched truffles, caramels, and marshmallows. Limited quantities of confections will be available for purchase that evening, and you will be able to pre-order treats for when they launch.
The evening runs from 5:30-8:30, open-house format: an hour is usually plenty of time. We'll be hosting the event at our confiserie & cafe, located at 2745 W. Armitage. Space is limited and confections are made to order, so reserve your spot today and come hang out with us!
