About
Licensed and Insured!
* Catering
* Team/social Workshops (make your own charcuterie boards)
* Kids Birthday Parties
My focus is always on creating experiences—alongside delicious food. Every grazing table and event I design is abundant, thoughtful, and artistic, something that truly wows guests and makes the host feel proud.
What sets my business apart is the attention to detail and personal care I bring to every event. From sourcing the highest-quality ingredients to styling each platter with intention, every element is carefully curated. My goal is not just to feed people, but to create a centerpiece that sparks conversation, leaves a lasting impression, and elevates the entire celebration.
I don’t compete with chains or stores on price, because what I provide is fully custom, unique, and designed to reflect the vision of each client.
When you hire me, you’re getting more than food, you’re getting a statement piece, a stress-free process, and a partner who genuinely cares about making your event exceptional.

I recently had the pleasure of attending an Experience Excellence event, and I have to say it exceeded all expectations! From start to finish, everything was flawless. The charcuterie board workshop was not only informative but also incredibly fun. Nazgol is a true expert in her craft, and she made the whole experience so enjoyable. Her passion for the art of charcuterie is evident in every detail, from the curated selection of cheeses to the beautiful presentation, culminating with her charming ability to engage us all.The venue she chose was gorgeous, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I left not only with a stunning board but also with a ton of new skills and confidence to create my own charcuterie spreads at home. If you're looking for a unique and memorable experience, I highly recommend Experience Excellence. Nazgol and her team truly go above and beyond to ensure you have a fantastic time. I'm already planning my next event with them!

Booked Experience Excellence for charcuterie cups for a work event, and they were fantastic! The whole process was smooth thanks to Nazgol's excellent communication from the start. The cups looked great and tasted even better really high-quality ingredients. Our team absolutely loved them and kept saying how good they were. Will use again.

The knowledge of the different foods that we were using, different techniques and ways of composing a platter were mind-boggling.She is my go to for any catering experiences I may need and would recommend her above all else!

I recently attended two charcuterie workshops hosted by Experience Excellence, and I had an absolutely amazing time! Nazgol is truly incredible. She only uses the freshest, highest quality ingredients, and her passion really shines through. The class was fun, hands-on, and packed with great tips and tricks. Best of all, you get to take home your own beautiful creation at the end. I highly recommend booking this experience!

Thank you so much! It was such a joy having you at not just one, but two of our charcuterie workshops! I'm so glad you enjoyed the hands-on experience and found the tips helpful. Sharing this craft with others is one of my favorite parts of what I do, and I love seeing everyone take home their own beautiful creation. I truly appreciate your support and hope to see you at another Experience Excellence workshop or event soon!
