With Spring comes Easter and I've decided to host Easter dinner at my home. I've also decided that incorporating fruit in my centerpiece would be a fantastic! I find that bright colors, interesting textures and variety of shapes that fruit can add to a floral arrangement and will surely catch the eye of your guests. Here are a few ideas:

Ron Ben Israel Cakes

Chef Ron Ben Israel is the known as the "Cake Maestro". If there is a certain kind of cake you desire, Ron and his team of culinary artists won't let you down! Ron's elegant cakes were first discovered in 1996 while on display in the window of Mikimoto on Fifth Avenue. Commissions from Villeroy & Bloch, Bloomingdale's, Bergdorf Goodman and others followed and quickly established his design studio as a favorite among celebrities and the style-conscious.

Balenciaga Paris

As I was flipping through the April edition of In Style magazine last night I happened to come across the newest fragrance from Balenciaga. The fragrance is simply titled Balenciaga Paris. I describe the fragrance as romantic, light florals with a twist. Enjoy!
