A Thanksgiving Floral Design Class
Just in time for Thanksgiving, we’re turning up the color, culture, and corazón. 💃🌺
Sofrito y Flores is a floral design class inspired by the vibrant, aromatic base found in many Latino kitchens—sofrito. Known for bringing dishes to life, sofrito is a bold blend of onions, garlic, peppers, tomatoes, and herbs… and in this class, those very ingredients become part of the design.
We’ll create a lush, expressive arrangement using fresh flowers alongside elements like peppers, garlic, onions, herbs, and tomatoes—celebrating texture, color, and the beauty of tradition. Each region has its own version of sofrito, and just like cooking, your design will reflect your own style and flair.
This class is about gathering, storytelling, and designing something meant to be seen, smelled, and felt—perfect for your Thanksgiving table or as a conversation-starting centerpiece.
Come play with flowers, honor culture, and design something lleno de vida.
No cooking required—just creativity. 💛
Date: November 24th, 2026
Time: 6:30–8:00 PM
Location: B-Side Lounge, Carr Mill Mall

Sofrito is a staple in many Latino cuisines, known for its bright and vibrant flavors that bring dishes to life. This aromatic blend typically consists of finely chopped ingredients such as onions, garlic, bell peppers, tomatoes, and a variety of herbs, with each region offering its own unique twist. The beauty of sofrito lies in its versatility; it can be used as a base for soups, stews, rice dishes, and more, infusing them with a rich depth of flavor. In Puerto Rican cuisine, for instance, sofrito often includes culantro and ají dulce, lending a sweet and herby profile, while Cuban versions might incorporate citrusy notes. Whether you're sautéing it in a pan to release its fragrant oils or blending it into a sauce, sofrito is a vibrant, colorful testament to the fusion of cultures and flavors that define Latino culinary traditions.
