Crave Catering on KOIN 6 Saturday the 17th at 9am!

Friday, July 16th, 2010 | Catering | No Comments

Crave Catering will be discussing catering at private residences on the “Weddings Portland Style” segment this Saturday at 9 am on KOIN Local 6. Our very own Mark Lopez, the proud founder and owner, will be sharing our success stories and thoughts on how we allow the hostess to be the mostest and also a guest at her own party. If you’re throwing a party, it’s much more fun to get the house ready, pick the flowers, decorate and then enjoy each one of your guests as the event transpires. After a long day of entertaining, laughing and having a great time, it’s a downer to clean. We do all that for you so you can truly enjoy the day.

Check out the show and when you’re ready for your next party, give us a call!

Crave Catering’s Favorite Chocolate Truffles

Thursday, July 8th, 2010 | Catering | No Comments

Oh how these truffles at Missionary Chocolates are decadent. Your knees will shake and your eyes will water with joy as you savor each delightful bite. We could eat them all day, but probably shouldn’t. It’s really tough with the large variety of irresistible and incredible flavors they create: sweet raspberry, espresso, “Meyer Lemon Explosion” and so much more. In fact, one of our favorites is the salted caramel truffle. This isn’t your ordinary salt. Get this: it’s Madagascar and vanilla bean-infused sea salt. Now that is a salt to die for. And the caramel is simmered into the chocolate so it blends perfectly.

Now, for the cherry (or candied lemon peel) on top: these truffles are made with love right here in our Portland community, sourcing local and organic ingredients. AND, if it couldn’t get any better, they’re completely vegan-friendly, so pretty much everyone can enjoy these little pieces of heaven.

The next time you book an event with us, ask us about them. We’d be happy to source them for you and I’m sure your guests would be more than happy to savor them.
