Going the Distance

The event industry is filled with many talented vendors who provide a great array of services. Some of these people are quite accomplished at their chosen trade. And, then there are others that go the extra mile....going the distance to bring us something absolutely amazing. Of these I am so TOTALLY impressed with cake & pastry wizard extraordinaire, Michele Coulon.


I met Michele nine years ago at Rancho Valencia Resort http://www.ranchovalencia.com/ while setting up a wedding. Not sure who said it to who first, but it was along the lines of, "Hey, I love your clogs!" Sensible shoes happen for sensible people BTW. Shoes aside, what this dear woman can create with butter, flour and sugar is seriously some kind of voodoo or black magic - she creates addiction! Tip - try her dense Meyer lemon cake - it'll really send you!


In addition to wedding cakes, specialty desserts and pastries, Michele Coulon Dessertier http://www.dessertier.com/ is also a super charming cafe in La Jolla offering French bistro-style fare that focuses on incorporating local and organic ingredients into her cuisine. Go the distance and make a reservation, you won't regret it.



Cheers,
Adrianne
