We LOVE making life a little SWEETER with our edible vapor bubble concoctions, and this time we brought out our Dallas pride with a BLUE sparkling lemonade enhanced with a mixed berries aroma! It was definitely the HIT of the convention!

The car daydreaming continues… Last weekend, the Make Your Life Sweeter® team brought all the sweetness to a first-look at the Rolls-Royce 2021 Ghost. The Ghost is the newest and most technologically advanced Rolls-Royce ever created. To keep it short and sweet: this car is everything and more. 

Make Your Life Sweeter - Rolls-Royce - Dessert Table - 9-11-20 (58 of 58).jpg

The on-site Ghost was a shimmering emerald, paired with an equally eye catching and luxurious interior. Inside each model, the wood detailing is sourced from a single tree, meaning that all accents are perfectly symmetrical. The flawless leather was a creamy wonderland.

Ferrari launches their newest luxury sport scar, the Roma, next year. Currently, there are only two prototypes in the world. One of which, was revealed for the first time at Boardwalk Ferrari an exclusive event in Plano, Texas! The Roma is inspired by the ease and beauty of 1950s and 60s Rome. Its timeless design, turbo engine, and elegant interior make for a work of art that is both speedy and cool.

Macaroon flavors included lemon cream, rose, pistachio and the crowd favorites: sea salt caramel and cappuccino. If it’s any indication of their tastiness, several guests came back for thirds.

When it comes to truffles, we go the extra mile. Our tiers of chocolate heaven included more traditional flavors like dark chocolate espresso, sea salt caramel and s’mores as well as more unique flavors like black truffle and honey, peanut butter and jelly and passion fruit. Peanut butter and jelly inside a chocolate truffle? Say no more.

In the spirit of Ferrari, Make Your Life Sweeter® served individual bags of our Italian Cream Cake Hotpoppin’ Gourmet Popcorn! This sweet scent combine with the aroma of Italian leather transported attendees to the Piazza Navona.

Make Your Life Sweeter - Visit Dallas1.jpg

Visit Dallas is a non-profit organization that covers and promotes all the best and sweetest parts of D-Town. Naturally, they had to host a happy hour for a first look at Star Skyline. Our friends at Legends were able to co-host the event. 

I love any excuse to show off our Zpheres! Our vapor bubbles are the perfect way to elevate any cocktail or beverage. The guests couldn’t get enough of our signature Lychee Martini.

This one-of-a-kind drink, infused with a floral tea, starts as a deep blue and fades to a light purple. The Zphere bubble tops it off and leaves guests amazed.

Next, we made our way to the three-piece Hotpoppin popcorn bar. Like always, there was something for everyone: buffalo hot wing for the spice lover, confetti for the indulgent, and black truffle for a salty, savory bite. 

Make Your Life Sweeter - Visit Dallas7.jpg

Last but not least, we brought an eight-tiered tower covered in our homemade, Make Your Life Sweeter®  truffles.

COLOR FACTORY HOUSTON

Color Factory and Make Your Life Sweeter® - can you name a better duo?! You’ve probably heard of the famous Color Factory by now, but for those who haven’t, it is an interactive art exhibit that is all things colorful, playful, insta-worthy and FUN! 

IMG_3844.JPG
4C3A5929.jpg

Since 2019, Make Your Life Sweeter® has worked with Color Factory, serving our products to enhance the exhibition experiences. Color Factory opened in Houston late last year and it was about time we took a field trip! 

4C3A6229.jpg

Color Factory Houston is made up of interactive color installations that are representative of the city. Exhibits feature some of Houston’s favorite artists, designers, creatives and makers, individually chosen to tell their unique story and to inspire creativity and curiosity to all that enter. 

4C3A5978.jpg

Since its opening in 2017, Color Factory has filled Instagram feeds for all the right reasons. The space is filled with bright colors, one-of-a-kind experiences, and yummy snacks (that’s where we come in). There are dozens of Instagrammable moments, all captured without ever pulling out your phone. Each guest receives a photo token upon entering the museum. Throughout the exhibits, cameras capture candid moments of visitors enjoying and interacting with each room. At the end of the visit, you can scan your token to access all of the pictures.

One of Color Factory’s most popular rooms is called the Confetti Accumulation. Here, the ceiling continually rains confetti, filling the room with an explosion of color in every direction. To make this room even better, visitors can indulge in our Confetti Hot Poppin® popcorn and guess each kernel’s flavor!

4C3A6126.jpg

In another wing of the factory (and my personal favorite), guests not only interact with color and sweet treats, but also with each other, in the Complimentary Compliments room. Here, visitors face a stranger or friend to exchange compliments. The color of your given compliment determines the flavors of the Make Your Life Sweeter® Modsweets® gummy treats delivered to you in the Perfect Pairing room. Talk about making life sweeter! It just doesn’t get any better than that. 

4C3A6211.jpg
4C3A6217.jpg

Color Factory’s celebration of art, color and the imagination is remarkable. What a magical day! I feel so fortunate to collaborate with a company that helps us make lives sweeter every day.

JERRY JONES' PRIVATE HANGAR - Legends Client Showcase

Last month, the Make Your Life Sweeter® team and I were invited to spread sweetness at the Legends Client Showcase at the new Star Skyline at the Braniff Centre in Dallas. The Star Skyline is a brand new, one-of-a-kind, event space designed for private parties, corporate meetings, receptions and more. It is conveniently located in Dallas Love Field’s luxury aviation and retail facility. The space overlooks Love Field’s runways and the downtown Dallas skyline. I was blown away by the breathtaking views, sleek, upscale design, and overall ambiance. 

4C3A52422.jpg

An intimate group of local event planners, caterers, florists and specialty event companies took advantage of the opportunity to scope out the venue for the first time and taste test a variety of products, treats and experiences - including yours truly!  

4C3A5245.jpg

Executive pastry chef for the Dallas Cowboys, Cesar Barachina, brought his A- game with an assortment of delicious treats. Cesar always brings something new and inventive. I could not get enough of his chocolate tarts, made with fresh, tobacco-infused cocoa beans!

4C3A5255.jpg

Guests were greeted with a pyramid of our Sugaire® Organic Cotton Candy Pints to try and take home. Flavors included piña colada, banana cream pie, sea salt caramel and more.

4C3A5237.jpg
4C3A5167.jpg

Later, guests snacked on our Hotpoppin® Gourmet Popcorn Bar. Make Your Life Sweeter® met all sweet and savory needs with flavors from confetti to buffalo hot wing with ranch, and the crowd favorite, fried pickle.

4C3A5331.jpg
4C3A5329.jpg

To close out the night, we showcased our newest product, the Zphere®. Let’s just say, the edible vapor bubbles were a hit! The Zphere® is an interactive and delicious drink experience that is sure to stir up conversation and fun at any event. 

4C3A5320.jpg

I look forward to many more special occasions held in this space. Thank you Legends Hospitality and Star Skyline for including Make Your Life Sweeter® in what was truly a beautiful night!

THE MET - Anniversary Soiree

SWEETNESS overload! Blog takeover by The Traveling Hijabista, DFW’s very own travel, food, and staycation blogger sharing her experience at Make Your Life Sweeter’s Anniversary Soiree.

 

nr161.jpg

When Yasmeen shared with me that she would be celebrating her anniversary soiree at the MET I was ecstatic and shocked. I mean...a party... at the MET?... THE. MET?! Only months ago the most star-studded ensemble of celebrities graced the same steps at the MET Gala and I was going to walk those same steps to celebrate my friend’s success. NOT TO MENTION Yasmeen would be celebrating her success in none other than the Temple of Dendur, where the actual Gala dinner is held. *Gasp* How does Yasmeen do it? The past couple of years alone have been a whirlwind. She sprinkled her sweetness at the Forbes 100 Year Anniversary Party, Instagram, Facebook, and with the one and only, Oprah Winfrey. It is amazing to see Yasmeen build her empire while at the same time, illuminating as a single mom to her 10 year old entrepreneur, Zain. Only Boss Ladies can juggle life the way she does! Am I wrong? So the moment I got her invite, I booked the first flight to New York from Dallas. That’s how the Traveling Hijabista Flies. 

  

nr128.jpg
nr118.jpg

When I arrived at the MET with my girl tribe we were welcomed with hors d'oeuvres and cocktails. I was dressed in a long formal dress designed by Turkish designer, Rasit Bagzibagli which sparkled under the glamorous MET lighting.  As a hostess escorted us into The Temple of Dendur, we all were stunned. Pillars of flowers towered overhead as a romantic palette of soft rose and velvety navy draped the room. Gilded flowers and candles gave the whole room a warm and inviting glow. Style by Marc’s florals and lighting brought a modern twist to the Temple and I just couldn’t believe that we were going to have mocktails in one of Egypt’s 1st century BCE Temples. As an Egyptian, I think my ancestors would’ve absolutely loved how Marc’s vision came to life. 

nr156.jpg

Yasmeen, wearing a stunning, embellished cape-like dress designed by Ese Azenbor, welcomed us to her sweetness wonderland, and yes, sweetness wonderland is a thing when you’re with Yasmeen. I had no idea where to start my sweet tooth journey. Every corner of the exhibit had one of Yasmeen’s signature pieces.

nr133.jpg
nr283.jpg

Ya’ll know how much I love chocolate, so I was instantly drawn to the tower of artisanal chocolate truffles. If you haven’t tried them, you are missing out! You absolutely have to try Yasmeen’s passion fruit flavor truffle. It is fresh, sweet and yet slightly tart; it’s perfection.

nr255.jpg
nr384.jpg
nr330.jpg

And then it caught my eye…  Is that a blow torch? No, it’s Yasmeen’s newest creation, the Zphere making its debut in pure Yasmeen fashion. Zphere is an edible vapor bubble top on a mocktail and it is something to be experienced! The mocktail began aqua blue in color and then pour a splash mango nectar and, in a couple of seconds, voila! my drink was a beautiful emerald green color. Wait a couple moments more and it was topped with a Zphere. The fog that vaporizes when the sphere pops, and the infusion of mango and berry makes this drink extra magical.

nr278.jpg
nr272.jpg
nr273.jpg
nr287.jpg

 Throughout the night I indulged on South African peppermint crisp popcorn and a myriad of macaron flavors while talking to some of the guests. We mixed and mingled for hours chatting about how Yasmeen had sweetened our lives.

nr219.jpg
nr424.jpg
nr435.jpg

One of my favorite parts of the night was getting to see some of what happened behind the scenes. The Make Your Life Sweeter team worked together like a family. I truly understood why Yasmeen’s empire is so successful. It takes a village

 .

Celebrating Yasmeen’s 6 Year Anniversary in the same space that the MET Gala is hosted annually was truly a magical, unforgettable experience. What a way to toast to her success!

 

Happy Anniversary Yasmeen!

With Love,

Alaa

MUSEUM OF ILLUSIONS - Soft Opening
 

As a small business in the Dallas community, Make Your Life Sweeter® is always so excited to support and promote new local businesses. Last weekend, our team served sweet treats for the soft opening of the Museum of Illusions here in Dallas! Only a select list of guests were invited to explore the museum for the very first time. The museum is filled with mind-tricking and exciting exhibits. As they like to say, “nothing is as it seems and the unbelievable truly becomes a reality.”

4C3A4247 2.jpg

To kick things off, our team served a Gourmet Hotpoppin Popcorn bar with a variety of tasty flavors including Buffalo Hot Wing and Better than Chicago! In addition, our team created a signature Hotpoppin flavor for the opening.  Orange Creamsicle is a fruity yet creamy new flavor designed to match the museum’s branding.
