My Journey — Programs & Progress

I am always learning, building, and growing — as a chef, a founder, and a business owner. This is where I am now, what I have completed along the way, and what I am working towards.

Working Towards My Goals

Desire Treats is a travelling pop-up, not a restaurant. We come to you — in your home, at your business, at your event.

• Edmonton, now — high tea and high coffee pop-ups, African, Caribbean, and Latin, with the Passport Menu and digital stamps.
• Orlando, Florida, first cross-border, coming soon — then across Canada, the USA, Mexico, Central and South America.
• Travel and collaborate — travel to other countries, learn from other chefs, and build their dishes with them, learning the taste, not just the recipe.
• Yacht and special events in Florida — high tea and high coffee on the water, and pop-ups in homes, businesses, and events.
• A travelling pop-up franchise — Desire Treats in more places, still travelling, still coming to you.

Ancestry and storytelling are at the heart of Desire Treats. This is why I did this. My roots are connected, and my ancestors are at the heart of Desire Treats.

With love, intention, and heritage,
Chef Desiree Somers
Founder, Desire Treats
