Beyond Decadence

Beyond Decadence infuses the art of dessert tasting & baking into an interactive learning experience for companies who seek to offer a (unique, innovative, fun, memorable) approach to conventional DEI&B training. We harness the power of food as a unifying language to create equitable spaces for foundational-level DEI&B work to increase employee engagement, understanding, and retention.
