How to set up the candy table

• Choice of sweets: sweets vary depending on the theme of the party. Homemade sweets are a good choice for any occasion, be it weddings, birthdays, teas, etc. If your party is more formal and elegant, one option is to vary between gourmet and traditional sweets, which are popular both at homely parties and at large events. There is no rule for choosing sweets, the important thing is that they express the affection and essence of the party.
• Amount of Candy: This is one of the most difficult tasks. In general, the rule is not to miss. It is always good to prepare an extra amount. It is usually recommended to count from 7 to 8 units for each guest. Another factor that must be analyzed is the size of the candies, if they are large, the amount per person can be reduced.
• Variety: All guests like to try what they have at the party, but be careful not to go overboard with variety, as some guests may not be able to try all the flavors. Sweets can be different in flavor, texture and even in their presentation, there are different shapes and sizes.
• Presentation: how can you not be enchanted by a well-presented sweets table? The theme of the party should reflect the presentation of sweets. There are supports of various sizes and materials, choose the ones that best match your decor. Ornaments should not hide candy, guests need to be enchanted by the candy, not just the packaging.
• Organizing the table: Distribute the supports so that they are visually well organized. Ideally, the lowest supports are at the front of the table and the tallest ones at the back. If the cake is on the candy table too, remember to leave room for it in the middle. For the empty spaces, a tip is to complete it with sweets arranged randomly or even with flowers or other ornaments.
• Identify the sweets: this tip is especially important if your party has a variety of gourmet or decorated sweets, which are more difficult to identify the flavor. One option is to place small plates that identify the flavor of the candy.

Sounds like a lot to organize, doesn’t it?! But calm down, the important thing is to keep in mind that the table must be in harmony with the party and represent the feelings you want to convey to your guests. Let’s see now some delicious candy table inspirations for different types of parties.
