Every holiday season, One Farrer Hotel presents a spectacular spread of festive treats, feasting menus, and gifting delights. For their 2024 Christmas campaign, the culinary team introduced an exciting range of sweet and savoury offerings—led by standout creations like the Honey Marmite Glazed Turkey, the whimsical Ferris Wonderland, the Rainbow Choux Tower, and their signature tropical fruit-inspired log cake.

To bring these creations to life visually, the hotel partnered with NLS Creative to lead a full-service Christmas-themed food photoshoot for use across their website, social media, online orders, and press features.
