Corporate Showcase

What: The Garden Museum Corporate Showcase | When: February 2019 | Where: The Garden Museum

We recently took a trip to one of our favourite London venues, The Garden Museum, to host an altogether different kind of event. The evening was put together to showcase the venue to local corporate clients and explore how this eye-catching space can be be used for functions. Our task was to bring along some of our most spectacular catering creations.

Talented florist Elizabeth Marsh and her team had created a beautiful ribbon-festooned walkway, cascading up to the main interior of the museum. This led our guests on a magical journey before being greeted by our awe-inspiring Edible Garden.

The Edible Garden took inspiration from the beautiful grounds at The Garden Museum. We wanted to bring a taste of outside inside, and create a wholesome and delicious display. An abundance of fresh, wild foliage dressed the edible garden structure – once again provided by Elizabeth Marsh Floral Design, – and then we filled it with opulent seasonal vegetables for styling and eating. Along with the vegetables, the colourful display dazzled with spiced nuts, hummus, sun-blush tomatoes, Burrata, pea and mint dip and pitta crisps. The virtuous nibbles were accompanied by carrot & ginger, beetroot & apple, and kale, cucumber & apple juice shots.

Next up was our Blush Patisserie Bar, which became known on the night as ‘Candy Land’. This delectable display included lemon verbena and chamomile crème brulée with chamomile shortbread; sparking elderflower, honeysuckle and berry jelly and orange panna cotta with edible flowers. Pretty macarons, supplied by Le Papillon Patisserie, chocolate lollipops and botanical cookies completed this sweet selection.

Praise for Kalm Kitchen

The evening was a great success and our hosts emailed afterwards to pass on their thanks. ‘We loved having you and it was really a grand success. We have heard nothing but good feedback and felt the night went so well. Hoping to have you guys do something here again. The food and desserts were delicious!’
