Candy Buffet

Have you ever had one at your event/party? What was your experience? What kind of candy was on it and what kind of containers did you use for the candy?

My friend gave out gum ball machines as the "goody bag" gift and had all sorts of round shaped candies. Skittles, m&m's, gumballs, sixlets, etc.

We already have the little favor bags for them to stuff with candy. So far we got suckers, mms, and Hershey kisses. I was also thinking about gumballs, covered pretzels, and maybe mini (bite size) assorted candy bars.

You can use old style candy jars and use asst licorice, gummy candies Swedish fish, gum balls mike n Ike's do you have a theme for your party you can use assorted candy related to the theme

We always do candt kabobs the kids can make their own candy kabobs we just buty all sorts of different kinds of gummy candies and let them go nuts, lol it takes up at least 30 min of party time, lol

Then they bring it home with them.

That's a cute idea. I'll have to keep those in mind for our next birthday party.

My friend did for her wedding. Their color was blue so she had every kind of blue candy in candy dishes. She used dishes with varying sizes and height and it looked great. She had every kind of candy.. blue chewy, gummy candy, blue m&ms, blue dove chocolates, etc. She's asian so she had little chinese food boxes at each place setting to take up to the table and fill with whatever you wanted. Very cute!

Pretty

Have you checked out Pinterest? They have some super cute ideas for Candy Buffets on there.
We are having one at my shower! Can't wait. My SIL ordered some custom m&m's at mymm.com. They say: "It's a girl" and "Welcome Brooklyn" and I think some may have a pacifier on them. They turned out so cute!
My color scheme is white and grey chevron with light pink accents. We are doing the big marshmallows dipped in pink chocolate, Hershey kisses, pink taffy, cookies on a stick to look like lollipops, and some sucker bouquets, with the m&m's.

Yeah I have googled it and stuff to get ideas. I checked on the mms they were cute but to expensive.

Yeah, they were a little pricy :/ ...
When are you having your shower? I'm due Jan 24th, but my doctor said I am measuring 3 weeks ahead of time, so I think we are going to have my shower the first weekend in December.
