Viral Beauty Meets Viral Food: The Ripe Avocado Hosts Sacheu's Unforgettable UK Launch
When Capsule Comms approached us to cater the makeup and skincare brand Sacheu's official UK launch, we knew it had to be special. This wasn't just any product launch - this was TikTok's most viral beauty brand showcasing their full collection to 40 of the UK's most notorious influencers and industry insiders. The setting was absolutely stunning, providing the perfect backdrop for such a momentous occasion. Intimate, inspiring, and utterly wonderful, the evening needed food that could hold its own against the buzz of the brand everyone's been talking about. Enter, the real star of the show - our giant tiramisu trolley (
served exactly how our client asked). Wheeled out tableside and dusted with cocoa using Sacheu's own logo stencil, it was pure theatre and absolutely brought the house down. Honestly, we're now convinced it needs to make an appearance at every future event. It was one of those nights where everything just clicked - the venue was gorgeous, the guests were amazing, and the food created those memorable moments that people are still talking about.

“We absolutely LOVED working with Capsule Comms to bring together theirs and their client’s vision of a monochrome industrialist theme to represent a brand-new beauty brand. With the founder and London’s top beauty influencers in attendance the pressure was on to ensure Sacheu was represented in the best possible way – judging by the photos I’d say the team absolutely pulled it off! We were also delighted to be welcome back to the Shard since our recent debut event and hope to be catering many more events at dizzying heights!”
Jay Burgesson-Carter, Founder of The Ripe Avocado
What our client said:
“Just wanted to say a massive thank you to yourself and Lucy and the entire Ripe Avocado team. I know it was a stressful one with some back and forths and tight deadlines, but the results were incredible. Sacheu was blown away with the end result, and I couldn’t have dreamed about a better Tiramisu tray. She was the star of the show!”
