Candy Buffets
Candy buffets are a fun addition to the decor or theme of an event. They are a great alternative to the traditional wedding favor as they are much more noticeable than the usual favor. They are also interactive, allowing your guests to get up and mingle. A candy buffet can create a great memory for your guests.
Reasons to pay us to do this for you:
- Avoid the expense and hassle of purchasing many jars, scoops and other accessories. The rental charge is significantly less than the purchase price of these items. We have approximately a variety of jars, cake plates, risers, scoops, tong and takeaway bags
- We know how much candy to buy, where to buy the supplies and how much it will cost
- We know how to make a beautiful display that will wow your guests.
- We set up the display at our office beforehand to ensure it looks great then transport it safely to your event
Pricing for buffets is done by quotation and is dependent on the number of people, intricacy of the design and the candy selected. The price includes design, delivery, setup, use of jars, scoops and other decor, take away bags, shopping for the candy and take down. Clients pay a labor charge and the candy is charged at cost. The client has control over what candy is included and how much this will cost. Clients who follow our recommendations will be able to select from candy in the $4 - $5 per pound price range.
Clients who have purchased a Full service planning package or a "Day-of" package will receive a discount on their buffet as well as no delivery, set up or take down charges. Please see the Gallery for Photos of a Buffet.
It is highly recommended that at least 30 days notice be given for those wanting the Candy Buffet service as much of our candy is purchased online.
Please see our Gallery for pictures of some of the candy buffets we have designed.
Fill out our Candy Buffet Questionnaire and email it to organizeyourevent@gmail.com so we can bring your vision to life.

Pricing and Questionnaire

We feel this customized pricing allows us to provide service for a variety of events and budgets.
