Valentines....a treat for ALL our customers

Not only did our art loving customers enjoy a fantastic evening at Dulwich Picture Gallery on Friday but our four legged friends in Greenwich Park also got in on the action!

For the whole Valentines week Creative Taste sold heart-shaped doggy biscuits from the Coffee & Bakehouse next to the General Wolfe Statue getting a big paws up from our canine locals!  A big thank you to Josh the Spaniel our lovely model.

Gift wrapped rose meringues and shortbread hearts were also a hit with our National Army Museum visitors.

Watch this space for an Easter installment...

'In the Picture' at Dulwich Picture Gallery

A beautiful, dry evening set the tone for a fantastic night at Dulwich Picture Gallery last week where Creative Taste celebrated the success of our new partnership with the Gallery.  The Café, which was relaunched in June after its makeover (see previous blog!) has already seen a 60% increase in sales against the two previous years.  

Guests at 'In the Picture' enjoyed plenty of our Chapel Down English Sparking wine and seasonal cocktails, wonderful canapés served on picture frames, music from the Wandering Hands Trio and speeches from both Ian Dejardin, Gallery Director and our own John Uphill, Operations Director.

After an exclusive tour of the current exhibition 'A Crisis of Brilliance', guests even had a chance to create some of their own art whilst enjoying a delicious selection of savoury bowls from our autumn menu.  A raffle which raised money for Dulwich Helpline provided the opportunity to win some fantastic raffles prizes including a much-coveted Mulberry handbag.  
The event was wrapped up with a stunning artists palette dessert - with edible paintbrush to dip into colourful tasty paints and goody bags to take home with samples from some of our local suppliers.
