Are you heading to Vegas for IBIE?

Start your week with something truly special!

We’re excited to invite you to an exclusive tasting event on Sunday, September 14, hosted in collaboration with IRCA Group at the Melissa Coppel Chocolate & Pastry School in Las Vegas.

This intimate evening is designed for a select group of chefs and industry leaders. Expect elevated cocktails, bold flavors, and great conversation—all in the company of some of the best in the business, including Chef Romain Cornu and Melissa Coppel.

✨ This is not your typical industry gathering—it's a moment to connect, taste, and be inspired before the busy IBIE week begins.

Open to chefs and professionals in the field. We’d love to see you there!
