UPCOMING EVENTS
Please join us for this special event on Wednesday, February 12 from 6-9pm hosted by Bootleg Chocolates, a hand-made chocolate enterprise owned by Daphne Ormerod-Cates and her daughter, Amanda, which was started 10 years ago in Freeport, Grand Ba- hama.
These delicious artisan chocolates are made using local fruit and spices with all natural flavours and fillings including ganaches and caramels that are enrobed in a blend of premium European Dark Chocolate.
The chocolates were originally produced as fundraisers for local charities and gained a small clientele that led to the mother/ daughter team producing chocolates for sale on a regular basis in order to supply the constant demand. Two years ago, the team decided to enter the retail market and last year they launched boxed caramels with their signature Bahamian flavours. Their cara- mels are also certified Kosher.
Amanda, who is a producer based in Los Angeles, took the choco- late business with her to California and is successfully distributing them to production companies and editing houses that give them to their celebrity clientele.
Valentines, chocolate, and champagne go together like a hand inside a glove, so for this event, Bootleg will be offering their beauti- ful, (and delicious) signature hand painted chocolate heart boxes filled with special champagne truffles in a limited edition, along with their regular ganaches and caramels in flavours such as guava duff, gully wash and goat pepper. What an exquisite way to treat that special someone in your life!
In addition to the complimentary tasting of their regular chocolates, a champagne and wine cash bar will be available for a champagne and truffle pairing. Champagne will be provided by Youngs Champagne. What a wonderful way to try these elegant morsels whilst nestled amongst a Valentines Art Exhibition of Ba- hamian Masters generously loaned from the Collections of the DAguilar Art Foundation, Dawn Davies and Pam Burnside under the theme Love is in the Air! The Art Exhibition will be on display in the Gallery from February 414.
