Candy Buffets- Fun with Color

So you have a party upon you, and you are planning a candy buffet. Start with your color theme. Go wild and crazy with several colors, or keep it simple with one or two. I LOVE seeing what our Southwest Candy customers do with our candy. Truly, we love being part of your special event. So when you call us, and ask us to help you plan your candy display- it just makes our day!

SO you have a color theme. You are doing pastels, you are doing bright primary colors, you are doing harvest time, or holiday time colors, or perhaps a glitz and glam theme with all the gold and silver! The last one being my personal favorite.

Now you need to determine how much candy you need for this wonderous occasion. I use the estimate of 1/4-1/5lb per person.
You can easily start with our basic candy buffet starter package (available in most single colors): http://www.southwestcandy.com/blue-candy-buffet-candy-assortment.html
This will give you about enough for 48 people to have a lollipop each (except for the Rock Candy) and a small portion of the gumballs, sixlets, and buttermints. While the key word here is "starter", you are going to need more to account for the guideline of 1/4-1/5lb of candy per person.

So give us a call, or send us a chat request. We are here to help make your next event super sweet!
