5 Guys Project Dessertarianfest Select CityWalk
Many people would agree that their favourite part of a meal is, without a doubt, Dessert. And because the best things in life are sweet, 5 Guys Project organised Dessertarianfest for the very first time. Presented by Cadbury Bourneville, the festival took place from March 24 to 26 at Select Citywalk, Delhi.
On creating this new property, Mandeep Malhotra, Co-Founder, 5 Guys Project remarked, "The festival was conceptualised over the common need to have good desserts for ourselves one evening. We discussed various types of desserts and while sharing notes we felt we should share the platform with entire Delhi rather than just 5guys!"
As India’s largest ever Dessert festival, Dessertarianfest offered attendees 3 days of celebration, indulgence, discovery and deliciousness. This fun-filled event featured a curated selection of the very best sweet treats for all Dessertarians. Beyond being able to (over) indulge on the best desserts in all of Delhi NCR, the festival also featured a special ”Dilli6” lane with vendors from Purani Dilli serving traditional Indian desserts.
Fun dessert engagements included Tweet café, sling-shot and a neuro game to win special sweet treats.
The festival also witnessed special appearances by Celebrity Chefs Marut Sikka, Ritu Dalmia & Masterchef finalist Mirvaan Vinayak for tasting sessions. They also judged the best desserts in 4 categories and declared the “Master of Desserts.”
On the response to the festival, Malhotra added, "It was hugely successful. Footfalls increased by over 40k people over the weekend and many exhibitors being sold of well in time to enjoy entertainment over standing at their establishments. We at 5 Guys Project are super happy with the success and will bring it back to other parts of the country soon."
