   The day before or the day of

   Fresh ingredients arrive

   Not a box packed a week ago: each guest's ingredients are bought fresh at a local store — Whole Foods first choice, or the best grocer near them — and delivered to their door, so what they cook with is fresh on the day.

   Event day

   Everyone joins and the chef takes it from there

What guests said about this experience

Verified guest

The team was super helpful and prompt in their responses, however, it is unfortunate that the first delivery of ingredients missed several key items for my entire team, requiring our team to go through the list and reach out to place a second order. It would be great to have the correct ingredients from the start. Other than that the service provided by the Rockoly team was impeccable and we absolutely enjoyed our time.

The tree is puff pastry cut into strips and twisted, and it looks far more difficult than it is — that's the appeal for a holiday table. Chef Emily was clear about keeping the pastry cold, which is the whole game; the two people who let theirs warm up ended up with a chocolate puddle. Mine held its shape and got photographed by everyone at dinner, which I did not correct.

I bake a bit and had never worked with shop-bought puff properly. The lesson worth having is that you handle it as little as possible and put it back in the fridge whenever it starts to feel soft. Obvious once said, and it's the difference between distinct layers and a flat biscuit. The chocolate between the layers stays molten for a surprisingly long time.

A good one for December because it looks like a centrepiece and takes under an hour. We added the mulled wine, which meant the kitchen smelled like Christmas by the time the tree came out of the oven. Easy enough that nobody on our team fell behind.
