Small Wine Shop and LoveLee Bakeshop have teamed up for a fun and flavorful evening as part of the Visit Lauderdale Food & Wine Festival! What's on the menu? Cake, of course! And wine, naturally.
It's the perfect opportunity to treat yourself and your friends to an indulgent experience of four delectable cakes created by LoveLee Bakeshop owner Lee Mazor, each expertly paired by Small Wine Shop owner Timothy Graham. Gather your squad and join us to celebrate good times, great friendships, and even better food and wine.
You'll be treated to a carefully curated lineup of wines, including a sparkling wine, a refreshing rosé, a bold orange wine, and a rich red wine. Each wine is paired with a unique cake flavor crafted just for this event. Expect surprising and delightful flavor combinations that will have you savoring every bite and sip. Raise a glass, enjoy a slice (or four!), and make delicious memories. We can't wait to see you there!
