Candy buffets are a trend that we are happy to see stay around for a while! Versatile and easy to customize to your own tastes, candy buffets have become a wedding favorite. Since it’s all about presentation, it’s best to decide on a theme or style for your display and go from there. Candy buffets are a perfect DIY project but also fun to take on for those brides that may be afraid to let their creative impulse take over. At the end of it all, there is no right or wrong way to display a candy buffet. So dive right in and let your imagination run wild!
Let’s start with the basics – items and supplies you’ll need regardless of the style of your candy buffet. Whether planning for a large-size table spread or an intimate table with your favorite sweets, you’ll need an assortment of sizes and shapes of candy buffet jars and vases. Glass cloche bells are perfect to display cakes and pies. You’ll also need a couple of aluminum candy buffet scoops and steel candy tongs – though not required for each and every candy jar. Cake pops are very popular right now and a cake push pop stand showcases them in the best way possible.
Next, you can add a whimsy element to your candy buffet with candy buffet signs. Personalize your message with wooden black board directional arrow signs and or miniature rectangular wooden blackboard signs.
Finally, if you love cupcakes as much as we do, don’t forget to leave room on the table for a gorgeous cupcake stand to display these treats in all their glory!
Now that we covered foundational items needed for almost any candy buffet display, our next post will delve into decor details galore.
