V-Day Dessert Logan Square

Katherine Anne Confections, a Chicago-based confiserie which features the delicious creations of confectionista Katherine Duncan, is excited to celebrate its favorite holiday—Valentine’s Day! In addition to being the perfect place to find a decadent Valentine’s Day gift for loved ones with an array of truffles, caramels and hand crafted s’mores in Katherine Anne’s Valentine’s Day box.

Plus, Katherine Anne Confections has planned a night of chocolate and wine pairing on February 11!

Valentine’s Day Wine & Chocolate Pairing

February 11 at 6:30-8:30 p.m.

Chocolate and wine are the quintessential food and drink pairing. For the third annual pairing party, Katherine Anne Confections is taking it to the next level with microbatch sweets.  They’re creating limited-edition sweets, some crowd favorites and some completely new. Damien Casten of Candid Wines, an importer/distributor of small production, organic and biodynamic wines, will guide the tasting.

Katherine Anne Confections will create 16 pairings with 8 wines (2 sweets per wine).

Highly acclaimed restaurant Danke (in Revival Food Hall) will provide its exemplary house-made charcuterie/cheese plates for savory snacks. They're not small portions, so attendees should keep dinner light afterwards (or just eat more chocolate.) And, the company is sure to be excellent. For tickets and more information click here.

Tickets are $70 and limited.

Valentine’s Day Sweets Collection

In addition to this delicious event, Katherine Anne Confections has created a special Valentine’s Day Sweets Collection featuring Valentine’s Day-flavored truffles, caramels and s’mores for $65. This collection is an exclusive selection of artisan truffles, caramels and marshmallows that has been specifically designed to celebrate the holiday.
