Welcome everyone...

I thought this would be a great way to share Epicure with all that love the products and new clients just learning of Epicure Selection.

I joined Epicure last week and love it so far. I've already learned so much. From healthy choices to new recipes. I LOVE to cook & bake but with a 3 year old and running my own wedding planning business I find it hard to make healthy delicious meals. Once I was introduced to Epicure my dinners are made in minutes, parties are a lot easier and my husband even complements on dinner every night. Before he was lucky to have dinner on the table.

Here is a little about the company;

Welcome to Epicure Selections® — a 100% Canadian, family-owned, woman-led company committed to adding value to the lives of Consultants, Customers and Canadian communities.
Victorian Epicure Inc. was founded by Sylvie Rochette to address a genuine need for easy, healthful and delicious mealtime solutions. With an initial offering of four hand-crafted spice blends sold from her station wagon at local markets and consumer trade shows, the products’ overwhelming popularity soon prompted the creation of Epicure Selections®.
Epicure Selections® follows a party-plan direct sales model to distribute our ever-expanding product line. Today, Sylvie is pleased and proud to see thousands of Independent Epicure Consultants across Canada share her recipe for success.

My mission is to share this wonderful woman lead business with you.
