He feels that people from all cultures and backgrounds share a common bond through their enjoyment of food, wine and travel. With the introduction of The Color of Food Pastries, Christina (Rodney’s wife) has taken his philosophy one step further to include the world of sweet delicacies.

FreeConsultations and Tastings
Consultations and tastings with The Color of Food Pastries are free and available with no obligation. You will meet with Chef Christina to customize your wedding cake and all of your other pastry needs. Prior to this meeting with you, we will first get to know you and some details about your wedding by conducting a phone “interview” when you call for your appointment. This allows us to be better prepared with some specific flavors and designs that you might be interested in. In order to be sure that you receive the attention you deserve, we do not double-book dates. Contact us several months in advance to set up an appointment and block your date. pastries@thecoloroffood.com
