For multiple years, Chef Smith worked the Caribbean Tourism Organization’s prestigious Rum & Rhythm Benefit events. Billed as the “Ultimate Caribbean Epicurean Experience in New York City,” they were held at the venue Capitale in Manhattan.

During each event, Chef Smith prepared specialty desserts with flavors from the Caribbean and bonbons for several hundred attendees. He also crafted ornate showpieces made primarily with chocolate, that matched the theme of the year’s event.
