Let Them Eat...Candy?



While no one loves cake more than this girl, and it can certainly be a fun and tasty tradition to observe, those who are not so baked-goods-inclined are in luck with this new trend: candy bars! (And no, I don't mean like Snickers.)

Candy bars are popping up at events and weddings as a popular way to provide a more casual dessert option that kids and adults can enjoy. Usually placed near the drink bar (either after dinner or as an all-night option), as many varieties of candies as desired (or as are affordable) can be set in all kinds of fun containers that correspond with the event's theme. Or, you can always opt for the traditional clear, glass candy container! (No need to re-invent the wheel.)

Let's face it: the phrase is "kid in a candy store" for a reason. It's a fun indulgence to be able to grab a handful of jellybeans, gummy bears, malt balls and lollipops, and it's a guest treat that can be far more easily tailored to varying tastes and allergies than a single cake.
