WD Stream Machine Weekend

9/27/2012

 
 While touring the United States, Western Digital brought their Stream Machine into Vancouver, Canada for a weekend and we got to be there! Spiritual Ingredients had a great time catering a sweet table for all of the guests of WD while they showcased some of their new home technology! While WD was preparing their information packets on routers and external hard drives, we were busy in our kitchen preparing cake pops, treats on a stick, chocolate covered strawberries, and much more. 
 It didn't take very long to decided that all of our products would be great at these outdoor events. So as you can imagine it did take some talking in order for us to help WD pick between our cakes, cupcakes, cake pops and desserts! But we manage to narrow the choices and come up with a fabulous fall themed sweet table fit for any guest to enjoy. 
 We set up at three different locations each outside of a BestBuy: 1. Burnaby, best buy head quarters, 2. At a Coquitlam BestBuy location, and 3. The Richmond BestBuy location! At each venue we were able to chat with clients and the WD team and we had a great time! Check out some of our photos!
Of course I love making and decorating cakes, specialty cakes or wedding cakes. They always provide new and unique challenges in their genre. But after this weekend, cakes and cupcakes may have a run for their money with a catered sweet table. I guess these tables are similar to a dessert buffet, but they get a twist when our clients ask us to centre around a theme or a colour scheme. Weddings are beautiful and each couple is unique in their design of a cake, but most often a dessert table has very similar items arranged in elegant trays. So a sweet table for a client's party or event presents a new challenge. Their is a bit more freedom in how the desserts are presented depending on the theme or location or event type.
