Culinary Team Building At Its Best!

From time to time groups approach us looking for unique team-building experiences outside of our regularly amazing cooking parties. The latest and greatest of these events was our “Summer House-Building Competition” at TCHO Chocolate that we organized for One Kings Lane.

One Kings Lane had about 100 employees from their San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York offices bussed to a previously undisclosed location for an activity that they knew nothing about. Upon arrival, guests enjoyed delicious food from our friends over at Bar Bambino and sipped beer and wine while they waited to see what was in store for them – a great start to any company party!
Once everyone was ready to go we unveiled the night’s activity and they were off!



Each team worked together to build their dream summer home by combining royal icing, coconut flakes, almond slivers, gingerbread and a myriad of other ingredients. Their homes featured rooftop gardens, tennis courts, sky lights, dog houses, swing sets, hot tubs and there was even an elephant fashioned out of a tootsie roll!



The imagination, creativity and enthusiasm were endless and the group had a great time drinking wine and mingling while making it all happen. We love being able to bring teams together in a way that is far outside of their day-to-day activities.
Here at Hands on Gourmet… we’re happy, when you’re happy.
