5 Sweet Candy Buffet Ideas for Your Party
With spring here and summer on its way, party season is here to stay for a while. Here are some great party ideas for this summer as well as some great tips for your next candy buffet.
1. Birthday Party
Birthdays happen year-round, so why not celebrate one with a candy buffet at your next birthday party?! Here at Nuts.com we have a candy by color, which makes it easy to coordinate a candy buffet with the overall theme of the party. You could also match candy colors to a favorite character for a child’s party like yellow and brown for Spongebob or dark blue and red for Spider-Man.
2. Baby Shower
The candy by color feature would be great for a candy buffet at a baby shower as well! You could use a traditional color palette like blue and pink or just go with something fun and neutral like yellow or mint. Make sure to pick creative containers of different sizes and heights for your candy buffet display to make it stand out even more.
3. Bridal Shower
It’s wedding season, so why not add a candy buffet to that bridal shower you’re planning? You might even want it to be in emerald green, this year’s color of the year. Of course, you could also use the bride’s wedding colors or her favorite colors. Just be sure to plan ahead when doing a candy buffet so you can get the colors and products you want.
4. Luau
This is the perfect time of year for a luau or tiki party, and a tropical candy buffet would be the perfect addition to any luau. Nuts.com also has a candy by theme feature, and one of their featured themes is luau. If you wanted to do something a little different, you could start with pineapple, coconut, and mango fruit slices and then add in vibrant colored gumballs, sixlets, or even Mike and Ike’s. Adding a backdrop element to your candy buffet table can help complete the look and add to the theme of your party!
5. BBQ
With Memorial Day fast approaching, the time for outdoor barbecues is here! You could add a color or taste-themed candy buffet to any outdoor get together to add that last special touch. Just plan in advance to buy enough candy for your buffet. We suggest five jars of candy per 50 guests.
