National Gallery Directors’ Dinner

To celebrate an important anniversary, we were tasked by the National Gallery development team to create a “pearl” inspired canape, dinner and cocktail menu. The climax of the dinner took on a playful note, as a giant three tier retro hand decorated celebration cake was wheeled to the top table for the host to cut. Guests then tucked into a delicious champagne strawberry birthday cake with strawberry sorbet.
