Jim Louvau

This is only its second year, but Phoenix New Times' Sips & Sweets is shaping up to be one of the summer's hottest food events — pun intended.

We've got spots left for just a few more dessert chefs and mixologists at the 2017 Sips & Sweets, to be held Saturday, June 17, at the Sheraton Grand Phoenix.

We'll warn you up front that this is not your typical bake sale. To participate, you do need a catering license or temporary food service establishment permit, staff and the necessary equipment to serve your samples, and a certificate of insurance. But if you are able to provide 1,250 samples of your signature dessert or cocktail (cocktails must incorporate one of the spirit sponsors) — we'll give you a lot of exposure in exchange.

Interested? Let's talk. Contact Rachel Hill at [email protected] for details.
