The Prom King
Baskin-Robbins-barrel-shaped petit four with buttercream & edible confetti
In Alexandria, Louisiana, he repurposed Baskin-Robbins ice cream barrels into hand-painted keepsake bins at prom
Why this bite? Philip's first event instinct was repurposing ice cream barrels into keepsake bins at prom. This playful petit four is where it all started.
The Story
Philip Dufour's event instincts began in a high school gymnasium in Alexandria, Louisiana. As senior class president, he orchestrated prom dances that didn't just meet expectations — they subverted them. When others stored shoes on bleachers, Dufour repurposed Baskin-Robbins ice cream barrels into hand-painted keepsake bins. This playful petit four — shaped like a tiny ice cream barrel with buttercream and confetti — is that origin: experiences embedded with thoughtfulness and surprise, long before anyone called it 'event design.'
