Cloudy days call for butterscotch and dark chocolate pots de creme. Served with a vanilla sweet cream and roasted nc peanuts. These treats are getting ready for a private chef dinner. I still have 2 openings for private chef dinners in April, if you are interested message me for more details!

Had so much fun returning to my favorite event every year! I only got pictures of the breakfast, even though we did lunch and dinner as well. Thanks for having us back

Photo dump from this fall and winter. I’ve been quiet on this page while I adjusted to the new kitchen and the new pace, but we are back and ready to rock! I have some fun events in the next few weeks, looking forward to seeing familiar faces as we work in our community.

Weddings are my favorite! Most of the time I’m just the caterer, which is my favorite, but sometimes the weather isn’t our friend and we have to change course. Like for this wedding for Denise and Lake where I helped create an altar space for their ceremony that had to be moved indoors. It all turned out beautifully and was such a fun day!

I have terrible photography skills. So I’ll stick to cakes! Congratulations Amanda and Garret. Thank you for the chance to be really playful with your cake. It’s simply stunning, just like the bride!

Real question from a real client (and definitely not my mom):
“Em will we still be able to order cakes when you move locations?”
Answer: YES!! Absolutely! We will have a pick up location in Benson and I will be delivering to those who live in the Cary/Apex/Garner areas. So keep those orders coming! I love making custom cakes. 😍

Back at it again with a beautiful couple! Congratulations Hannah and Johnny. We loved being part of your day.

Did you know that Chef Em has a James Beard award??

In 2014, the prestigious James Beard Foundation awarded Chef Em the Rising Star—Chef to Watch designation! Although she was still a young chef at that time, the Foundation recognized her incredible talent, and now it’s your turn to “Watch” that talent in action.

Come join Chef Em and the good folks of Philip’s Farm in Cary, North Carolina, for an exciting evening of delicious fine dining. For this upscale dining event, Chef Em will be preparing her inventive interpretation of foods distinctive to North Carolina. From the ocean to the mountains, and of course including North Carolina’s finest fresh produce, this dinner will be a delight from the first course to dessert.

A fine dining event is a night to remember! You’ll enjoy exquisitely prepared dishes, build sweet memories, and experience the unique opportunity to interact with the Chef as she presents each course. Bring your friends and make an evening of it together!

These fine dining events sell out quickly, so don’t miss your opportunity to experience A Taste of North Carolina with Cary’s own James Beard-awarded Chef Em! Here are all the details for this exciting fine dining event.

Ps. Enjoy these pictures of young Chef Em and Em today… the owner of her own Em’s Café!
