Amy Atlas Event at William Sonoma Beverly Hills


Meeting people that are extremely successful in your industry is always a thrill and meeting Amy Atlas was… thrilling, to say the least.  Her combination of style, simplicity and practicality make her the best in the business.    I remember when I first decided to go to culinary school about two years ago, my friend Melissa emailed me, “Have you seen her?” with a link to Amy Atlas’ page /http://amyatlas.com/.  Amy's use of color blew my mind and I’ve been a fan ever since.  When I heard about her book signing and realized I was off work that day, I knew I had to go meet this amazing person.  On July 1st with my Amy inspired outfit and Macaron Pop Bouquet I was off to Beverly Hills.   A picnic inspired Dessert Buffet was completely adorable of course and Amy was even sweeter than you could imagine.   She really took the time to explain her methods and gave us very useful tips for entertaining and setting up the most beautiful dessert tables.  If that wasn’t enough, we now have all her secrets in the new bible for entertaining.  If you will ever throw a party you should get this book.  As a baker I love the recipes, as an artist I appreciate the colors and as a mom I cherish the simplicity.  My favorite party, “Darling Dots” I’m in love with the candy board.  “Perfectly Preppy” is also pretty darling.   Amy was so nice and spoke to each fan several times, it was an Amy Party.  I had the time of my life and Amy Atlas loved the bouquet of macarons.  They were “California Flavors”; pink bubble gum, lemon, lime and orange blossom and I even put bubble gum by SweetWorks under the macarons.  The best part was that they matched her outfit, too funny.  I even had the pleasure of meeting Adri from maskipops.by.adri.  Her cake pops are amazing and she was a delight.  What a wonderful day, Thank You Amy!!
