ABOUT THE EVENT
Great tasting desserts, for a great cause. Chester County Community Foundations Sweet Charity event is here again for 2015. Local award-winning dessert creators will compete for ‘Best Dessert’ and more at Sweet Charity.
There will be fun, food, and philanthropy galore at William H. Bunch Auctions & Appraisals. Over 350 guests are expected to attend this dessert competition on Monday, March 23.
VIP guests and corporate sponsors are invited to the Preview Reception beginning at 4:30, highlighted by Bunch’s Behind the Scenes peek at valuing antiques and collectibles. The rest of the guests will begin arriving at 5:30. While enjoying each other’s company guests will savor appetizers, wine, and sample the different desserts to vote on the winner for most popular.
Professional judges will taste the desserts as well to then decide on a winner in an exclusive back room. Notes will be taken of their professional culinary commentary to share with the competing chefs.
Sweet Charity features Sweet Victory, pairing Victory Brewing beers with desserts. Sweet Victory is hosted by ChesCo Community Imprints, a network of Chester County’s emerging philanthropists and community volunteers.
