Foodie focused, decadent tastes & sensations await you on this tour!

Life is short, EAT desert first! The Raleigh Aphrodisiac Wine & Dessert Pairing Tour has been created & designed for guests seeking an exceptional tasting, educational and FUN experience. We discovered and sourced the absolute best that Raleigh has to offer regarding chocolates, deserts, wines and atmosphere. Our first stop is a European café where people go to become intoxicated by exquisiteness, richness, and taste.  The magic arises from choosing top-quality raw ingredients.

Next we take an Artisan chocolate maker, producing unique and interesting chocolates with attention and care.   Speak with the Chocolatemaker; learn the fascinations of how fine hand crafted chocolates are made. Then have a generous sample of what has been made that day. Yum!

On the next leg of this tour, we enjoy gourmet cupcakes at a local thriving upstart in the ultra-rich experience of specialty desert bakers in Raleigh! How about a Chocolate Salted Caramel, Midnight Magic, Smores, Cherry Limeade, Lemon Icebox, Chocolate Cream Pie cupcake…lots of more to choose from…these are the BOMB! Total YUM!

Finally, we land at the largest independent wine shop in North Carolina with over 2000 wines in stock and a very comfortable wine tasting bar to wrap up your tour experience. TRT provides a special tasty treat at this leg of the tour. Yum, yum!
