Your team will have a blast building their own boards filled with sumptuous sweets.

Gear up for the gold medal of sweet charcuterie in this on-site team building event in your office with Chef Esh-Marie. It's a decadent throwdown where your crew gets the lowdown on making their own dessert board while competing for top prize.

Enjoy a lesson in homemade hot cocoa, then, learn how to cut fruit into neat shapes, make chocolate-covered treats, and prepare and assemble artful collections of chocolates, dipped fruits and other delicious elements. Finally, it's game-on as your group breaks into smaller teams to build their own sweet charcuterie presentations.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Chef Esh-Marie is delightful and so nice to work with. She knocked an Xmas Eve surprise out of the park and recommend her for your next gathering. Meticulous, responsive and was grateful to have her.

Esh- Marie put together a fantastic meal for my dad's 70th birthday. She was able to adjust the menu to fit our needs, came on time and left everything spotless. She was a joy to have at our house and really made us feel comfortable during the dinner. I wasn't sure what to expect this being the first time we've used a private chef for an event, but I would highly recommend Esh-Marie for your next dinner party.
