Candy Buffet!

December 9th, 2009 @ 2:34 pm by Mrs. Cheeseburger

I already talked about the candy buffet briefly, but the details are all starting to fall into place. Here are all of the containers together:

And here are the different types of candy we’re going to fill them with!

Don’t worry, we haven’t bought the candy yet. :) But I did find a pretty sweet bulk candy website where you can search for candy by color or flavor. I tried to pick out a good variety. From top left: Bliss chocolate candy, spearmints, grape stick candies, chocolate caramel hearts, tangy button candy, chocolate malt balls, sour apple gummies, lavender candy hearts, lime rock candy suckers. And wow, is this going to be an expensive little touch. Who knew bulk candy costs so much?!

I also have this sign for the front of the table:

And I have these signs ready to go somewhere if needed to make the table look nice. :)

And labels for each container so people know what they’re getting themselves into:

I’m excited for this station as well as all of the cookies that will be on the table! It should be pretty sweet (ha).

Are you also a candy buffet bride? How are you spicing up your table decor?

That’s a great collection of containers! We’re doing a modified candy buffet — the candy jars are going to be our centerpieces!

I LOVE those labels! Did you make them? If so, what program did you use? I’m looking for something extremely similar to use as favor tags!

A candy buffet is a must on my list.

I am also using a silver cake stand to hold a “not yet determined” goodie in a little pink box. (will probably use risers under some on the containers to make it more fun to look at.)

Hoping to find some good deals on pink candy in February.

We are doing a candy buffet, too. I haven’t fully figured out all of the details but we may do a candy/dessert buffet… still looking into options! But I love what you’ve done!!
