UNDERGROUND DINNER
“The Haute
Chocolate Affair”
Where to begin with chocolate in a multi-course underground dinner? At the beginning, of course, with a cocktail, a custom "Snickertini" of vodka, Godiva liquor, Bailey’s Caramel, amaretto, Ghirardelli chocolate sauce! The glass is rimmed with caramel sauce and then dipped in crushed Oreos -- the Devil is definitely in these details!
Because it's chocolate, you're already thinking about dessert: (above) White Chocolate Peanut Butter Mousse Chocolate Crunch Pie! And that's just the first course of four dessert courses!
In between, so much more, to the delight of so many guests. "The Haute Chocolate Affair" was a smash -- a Crunch, a Krackel, and a Whatchamacallit, too!
When it comes to making your corporate event, wedding, or party truly memorable, the food you serve plays a central role. For those looking to add a unique, luxurious twist to their catering, dishes that incorporate chocolate offer an unexpected delight. At our catering company, we specialize in creating appetizers and entrées that artfully include chocolate, elevating any event with rich, innovative flavors. Here’s why you should choose us for your next chocolate-infused catering experience.
Chocolate as a Versatile Ingredient
While chocolate is often associated with desserts, it can be an extraordinary ingredient in savory dishes as well. Our chefs know how to balance the richness of chocolate with other bold flavors, creating a perfect harmony in appetizers and entrées. Whether it’s a dash of dark chocolate in a savory mole sauce or cocoa-infused spice rubs on meats, we masterfully incorporate chocolate in ways that enhance the dish without overpowering it. This versatility allows us to craft creative and flavorful menus that surprise and delight guests.
Unique and Memorable Experience
Choosing dishes that include chocolate for your event is not just a delicious decision—it’s an unforgettable one. Chocolate in savory dishes adds an element of surprise and sophistication that will have your guests talking long after the event is over. From appetizers like cocoa-dusted shrimp to main courses such as chocolate-rubbed steak or chicken with a mole sauce, we create culinary experiences that make your event stand out from the crowd. Whether you're hosting a corporate function, a wedding, or a party, offering something different on the menu is always a great way to impress.
Elegant and Sophisticated Flavors
Chocolate, when used in the right proportions, brings a level of elegance and depth to dishes that few other ingredients can match. We carefully select high-quality chocolate and expertly pair it with savory flavors, spices, and herbs to create complex dishes. Our chocolate-infused dishes are designed not only to be flavorful but to add an air of sophistication to your event. Imagine your guests enjoying a rich, tender filet mignon with a cocoa and chili crust or tasting our decadent chocolate and balsamic glazed pork loin—these dishes are sure to elevate your event’s culinary appeal.

One of the benefits of working with our catering company is the ability to customize your menu. We understand that no two events are the same, so we offer flexible menu options tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Whether you’re planning an intimate wedding reception, a large corporate function, or a festive party, we’ll work with you to create a menu that seamlessly incorporates chocolate into appetizers and main courses. From spicy cocoa-based rubs on meats to chocolate-infused sauces on vegetables, we ensure that your menu is unique, flavorful, and fits the tone of your event.

An Element of Decadence
There’s something inherently indulgent about chocolate, which brings a feeling of luxury to any dish. Including chocolate-infused appetizers and entrées in your catering menu offers your guests a sense of culinary opulence. Whether it’s a rich, savory chocolate sauce drizzled over perfectly grilled meats or a hint of cocoa in an appetizer, the result is a decadent experience your guests won’t forget.
