Bernardus Lodge Valentine Sweets & Scents ~ Feb 12, 2011 ~ 11 to 2 PM

What better way to spend time with your beloved than an afternoon at Bernardus Lodge? Guests will be welcomed with classic champagne cocktails before meeting Pastry Chef and chocolate enthusiast Ben Spungin. Under Ben’s direction, couples will each create a box of indulgent handmade chocolate truffles. Then join Jane Hendler and Rex Rombach of Carmel’s famous organic perfumery and apothecary, Ajne. Guests will experience an array of rare & natural essential oils – including such aphrodisiacs as Vanilla, Cacao, Rose and Jasmine. Each guest will blend these pure and precious oils into a custom parfum – bottled in Ajne’s signature romantic Black Heart flacon. Then enjoy a romantic table at Chef Cal Stamenov’s grand wine country buffet featuring grilled organic vegetables, artisan cheeses, natural prime beef, local seafood and new release Bernardus wines. A true couples retreat! $100 per person, inclusive of tax & gratuity. Click here for more info at Bernardus.com.
