A Chocolate and Champagne Tasting with live music, a competition for the favorite sweet or savory chocolate creations, raffles and more…
Be a part of the fight against breast cancer while enjoying a feast for the senses. Join Krewe de Pink for their fifth annual Death by Chocolate…NOT Breast Cancer fundraiser and honor this year’s Sweet Survivors.
Krewe de Pink, in partnership with local restaurants, caterers, culinary students and Jacob Schoen & Son, present a chocolate and champagne tasting event like no other. Twelve tasty chocolate bites —both sweet and savory— will be created with chocolate donated by Callebaut Chocolate, home of the finest Belgian chocolate.
At this 21 and older event, guests will enjoy the scrumptious chocolate creations* with bubbly** which has been graciously provided by Josh Wine Cellars. Live music will be performed by the Delgado Jazz Combo. There will be a raffle with exciting prizes and a pink photo station will be available for guests to capture the moment.
The event is a live competition with attendees voting for their favorite sweet and savory chocolate dishes.
VIP ticket holders will enjoy exclusive access to the event with a 5:30 pm entry to mingle with the 2024 Sweet Survivors while tasting the chocolate dishes and sipping champagne. General admission entry is at 6:30 pm. Tickets are limited and will be available soon! (if you cannot attend but want to support breast cancer research, consider a donation in honor of a loved one.)
The event will be held at the landmark Schoen Mansion on world-famous Canal Street. The exquisite features of this city landmark including the unique architecture, fine furnishings, spectacular chandeliers & fireplace mantels, and beautiful gardens provide an elegant setting for this fun, exciting and decadent event.
Those who attend are in for a unique and memorable experience full of wonderful sights, scents, sounds and tastes all while supporting breast cancer research at Tulane Cancer Center.
