SUPPORTING YOUR BRAND STORY WITH FOOD

BRANDED FOOD CONTENT - YOUR BRAND STORY, TOLD DELICIOUSLY

A unique approach to influencer marketing. Host a branded dinner, send out branded recipe postcards, or create themed content for your brand with its food counterpart. I love to design food that reflects the aesthetics, values and spirit of anything your company creates or stands for.

A culinary interpretation of your company's goods, services or values
Whimsical, edible manifestations of your company's spirit in food form to use for social media content and brand awareness
Example: Are you a luxury linen company? Let's create custom recipes that tell the story of 'breakfast in bed' to create brand loyalty for a series on Instagram.
We work closely together to determine what sort of partnership makes the most sense. There is no limit to our creativity!

"This is a gift like no other!"

I have experienced firsthand the talents and magic of Sonja’s food creations for many years. I wanted to treat my husband with something special for his birthday. The whole process was really meaningful. The reflective questions at the beginning actually brought me to tears, steeping even deeper in the love and celebration for the man that I married. She took this and created a bespoke menu that was so incredibly on point, thoughtfully weaving together the poignant pieces of our story with the tastes and flavours that my husband loves in such a unique and inventive way. Sonja did an amazing job of breaking down the step-by-step of preparing for the meal that allowed me to actually enjoy the process and include the eager helping hands of my 2 year old. The meal truly was a family affair, with each person attending creating a part of the menu. It was no small feat but came together beautifully and was a labour of love + night that we will remember for years to come. Not to mention beyond delicious (seriously wow)!!

"I am truly in awe at how perfect this food was for our family."

It’s an exact mix between our cozy comfort food and nostalgia and FUN twists on so many flavours I know we all love. I really can’t thank you enough! Heading home with very full bellies after an absolutely gorgeous dinner we were able to prepare as a family. My parents were overjoyed and both brought to tears reading through the menu, which brought up lots of memories and family lore and laughs. Thank you so much for providing the inspiration for such a beautiful day for us.
