Holiday Dessert Table Segment and Behind the Scenes

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1PNsiO3gPI?fs=1]

Happy Holidays everyone! Just wanted to share our Holiday Dessert Table segment that aired earlier this week on the Daytime show (NBC). This was the final installment of a three part series with Daytime.

Overall this was such a great experience, but I smile when I look back at this moment because I was soooo frazzled. Very little time to get the final table together…forgot my milk shots….wanted to include Branches…wanted to wrap the brownies with parchment paper and some cute purple twine, and what about my hair? (Sigh) The list goes on.

Of course, now that I see the final product, I realize that it all worked out great and how incredibly  blessed I was to have the opportunity. If you read my novel here, you should have a pretty good idea that I’m sooo ready, inspired and fearless for what is in store for 2011.

Can’t wait!

Dessert Table Segment (Behind the Scenes)-Daytime TV Show

Hey everyone! Hope all of you are having a great week. Just wanted to share a few behind the scenes for our Thanksgiving Dessert Table Segment that aired this week on Daytime’s WFLA. LOL, and as you can see I’m in deep concentration!
Again, can’t express enough how amazing this experience was for Chic Sweets. The Daytime staff was amazing: Hosts’ Cyndi Edwards, Lindsay MacDonald, David Nemeth and producer Deanna George could not have made me feel more comfortable.
And stay tuned for our Christmas Table coming up soon!

Behind the Scenes-Daytime TV Show

So finally able to catch my breath on some much-needed blogging. We had the fantastic opportunity to appear on NBC-affliate (WFLA) Daytime TV Show to share dessert table tips for the upcoming holidays: Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Halloween, which is right around the corner.

All three segments were filmed in one day but will be airing at separate times. Our Halloween Dessert table aired last week and above are some behind the scenes shots. It was soooo much work and more involved than I could have ever imagined, but the final product turned out great!

So first up: Halloween! This was by far, my favorite table to plan. So many great projects for this one. From the glitter pumpkins to the pumpkin cooler, everything just came together wonderfully.  

Below are a list of contributors for this table:

1.  Candy and Desserts/Table Design: Chic Sweets
2.  Cake stands: Rosanna, Inc.
3.  Linen: Linens by the Sea

Segment to be posted shortly! Thanks for your patience.

Chic Sweets Appears on ABC’s News Now


Okay, so I had the amazing opportunity of being asked by ABC’s Good Morning America’s Tory Johnson to appear on a segment she does on workplace issues/concerns. I took the opportunity to discuss the ups and downs of being and entrepreneur. It was a great experience and opportunity for Chic Sweets and I was thrilled to be a part of it. Check out my tv debut on our website: www.chicsweets.com

I’m hoping to come back again and give them an update on how we are doing and progress I’ve made-I’ll keep all of you posted.
