Candy bars are becoming increasingly popular and they are a wonderfully colourful way of tempting those taste buds! When planning your own candy bar for Christmas, you need to establish how much space you have available. You will also need various types of cake stands and supports to give your display height variations.
The first thing to note is the importance of using the right colours. If you want to create a festive theme, you will need to focus on festive colours like red, white, and green. You will also need to plan various types of sweet treats in order to offer your guests several options from which to choose.
Cake pops are a must at every candy bar and you can make yours extra festive by using red and white sticks! You can also set out some Christmas cookies and cupcakes. If you like, you can add a bowl of Christmas chocolates or even a glass jar of red and green gumballs.
Your cake pops should be covered with white chocolate or you can add food colouring to the white chocolate and make red or green chocolate. You will also need some festive coloured sprinkles to decorate your cake pops but remember, you don’t need to decorate all of them with sprinkles. You can also decorate them by hand with various chocolate patterns.
Christmas cookies are also a really great idea and you can make various flavours or stick to your favourite. Some popular designs include Christmas trees, Santa, reindeer, and snowmen. Decorate your cookies and make them as colourful as possible.
As for your cupcakes, you can really get creative when topping these delicious morsels! Some enjoy white frosting with Christmas-themed sprinkles. Others prefer green frosting with some sprinkles to create the effect of a Chrismas tree. You could even create your own candystriped design with red and white frosting! If you want to give each of your cupcakes their own personality, you can make some with Santa faces, some with smiling snowmen, and others with goofy reindeer! These are particularly great for the young or young at heart.
Remember to deck your table with a white cloth and set out all your treats so that they are easy to reach. Anything located at the front of the table should be placed directly on the table. As you make your way further back, the displays should be more elevated. Feel free to add more bowls with red and green sweets and chocolates or even some candy canes!
