A Tasting Party for Sal del Mar
I am so excited to show off these photographs taken at a party and tasting for our Sal del Mar hand-embroidered bags that Bon Boutique held at their store in Tucson, Arizona. The photos taken by Amy Haskell (www.haskellphotography.com) are worth a thousand words.
Beautiful Crystal of Bon Boutique.
Bon Boutique, Tucson
Crystal, one of the proprieters (her mother Bonnie is the other) greeted guests with trays of Sal del Mar salted nuts for guests to taste our hand-harvested gourmet salt.
The setting was exquite with garlands and twinkling lights and displays of Sal del Mar gift ideas.
Sal del Mar's NEW grey linen Sal del Cocktail Bags
Gift Idea: Sal de Cocktail with a salt dish
Gift Idea: Sal del Mar with a beautiful cookbook
I loved the gift ideas Bonnie and Crystal designed. For Sal del Cocktail...our new embroidered bag design for the home cocktail bar...they packaged each bag with a shallow crystal bowl for salting cocktail gasses.
Our Sal del Mar gourmet sea salt bags were tied as a gift package with twine and hand-made paper flowers and a glorious cookbook, "Mexico, The Cookbook" by Margarita Carrillo Arronte.

Teresita's New Martini
Tiny paper fluted cups held savory and sweet salted almonds.
As the guests browsed through Bon, they were served delectable samplings of Sal del Mar and Sal de Cocktail.
Trays of tidbits were passed with such treats as olive oil sautéed dates topped with Sal del Mar, salted chocolate truffles, melba toast topped with goat cheese and salted caramelized guayaba by Chef Teri Arnold Shannon who prepared them from her Teresita's Panadería y Bistro kitchen in Álamos, Sonora, Mexico.
Sal del Mar filled a salt dish to try with French radishes, herbed butter and baguettes.
Tasting of a new-style Martini was served with salt-rimmed cocktail glasses (for the recipe go to our website).
If you couldn't attend the tasting and party, Bon Boutique is located at 3022 E. Broadway, Tucson. It is worth a visit and you can even order from them on-line! Sal del Mar and the gift ideas shown above, make the perfect hostess gifts, holiday gifts and are packaged beautifully!
