Of course I begin nearly every candy buffet with our World Famous Jumbo Jelly Beans and for this one I layered Red Licorice and our new Pineapple beans. This looks great but for a real event you may want to make sure that all of the flavors are easily accessible for guests, so they don't have to dig down in order to get a particular flavor. You can do this by only having one flavor in each jar or by having perhaps a short jar or bowl with the "buried" flavor available.
I used this same technique with our flavored malt balls. In addition to our delicious milk chocolate malt balls we now carry PUMPKIN, CHERRY, CHOCOLATE MINT, and PEANUT BUTTER!!! They are amazing and are made by South Bend Chocolates. I took the pumpkin last week to the Vera Bradley event and got a great response from the ladies.
A new favorite in the candy world is an old favorite-Candy Corn! Candy corn is available in a wide variety of flavors and in colors for nearly every holiday. We currently have caramel and cinnamon in stock but we could help you to find more flavors!
However, no candy buffet is truly complete without the little extras. Ribbon and little stickers really complete the look and take it to the "next level". I also used fake leaves. What is so great is that Target has fall and Halloween scrapbook items and fake leaves right now in their "See Spot Save" area. It's amazing what a couple of dollars can get you and how amazing it can make your candy buffet look! Lux for less is what I say!! Then you just hot glue your accessories on. It comes right off and holds great!
Great suggestions! Helpful hint though...there are awful typos and grammar throughout and it occurs so often that it becomes distracting to continue reading.
