Ink&Pixel Studio Tour
On November 21st, Ink&Pixel Agency welcomed members of the Connecticut Art Directors Club (CADC) to mix and mingle at our agency as part of their ongoing CADC Studio Socials — a series of hangouts where creative peers invite you into their space.
And Zest was gladly able to create a menu and serve the people desserts! All the ingredients were local, fresh, and in season, because that is what makes food good!
I was beyond excited to create a custom menu for this event, highlighting the flavors of the season. Here’s what I came up with:
Orange-scented chocolate cremeaux: whipped orange ganache (with white
or dark chocolate ganache) and spiced Guinness cake with raspberry geleé
▸ Gingerbread cupcakes with cinnamon cream cheese frosting
(sugared cranberries and rosemary)
▸ White chocolate pots de crème with mixed berry compote
with greek yogurt, vanilla bean, lemon, berry, panna cotta
▸ Dark chocolate and peppermint pots de crème with chocolate chunk
or double chocolate shortbread cookie, hand-molded chocolate leaves
(as a tribute to 85WISHES and Pa Paul), and dark chocolate pearls
It made me so happy to see smiling faces listening to live music in front of a roaring fire. What also made me happy to see was a full box of donations for Soles 4 Souls!
“We have had the pleasure of enjoying treats from Zest for the past few years, and we are always speechless! Zophia has a talent for creating delectable works of art... truly spectacular! From her versions of the classics like brownies and lemon bars, to one-of-a-kind creations and gluten free delights... there is truly something for every taste!”

I hope that everyone who came had a great time and enjoyed themselves! It was a really fun experience and I am so grateful for all the nice people out there.
