Candy Buffets

So it's the start of wedding season and Candy Buffets are in full swing again this year. Well who doesn't want a deliciously eye appealing display of candy on a table for everyone to eat!? It's a great way to add more colour and fun to any party and for weddings it's a great way to (kill 2 birds with stone) and have it dual as part of your dessert and guest favors. What we have been getting lots of interest for are Candy Buffets for Dry Grads. I love it!  We have one booked so far and I hope we get to do more. Along with our Candy Buffet's we are renting our 6 flavour Pucker Powder machine where kids can make there own flavoured sugar tubes, Yum ! We brought it with us when we had our Pop Up shop at Holt Renfew this past Valentines. Which I still need to post about. We also rent out our cotton candy machine which is always a big hit at parties. The smell alone makes you smile :-)

I love Easter. Everything about it is so cute, fun and colourful.  I can't wait for this Easter as Peyton will be way more into searching for her eggs and other yummy treats. We have some new candies in this year like these NEW Peeps Crispy Rice treats. They are basically a rice crispy treat that's been blended with their marshmallow to give it that sweetness known from their Peeps marshmallows. They even have little bits of sprinkled candies in the treat to make it more festive. I wonder if you were to try making your own rice crispy treats and substitute the plain Jane marshmallows for Peeps if it were to taste the same. I will have to put that on my baking list t try one of these days. Another Peeps candy we have in are the chocolate covered peeps! So delicious.

We also have in the store for those Easter egg hunts, Baby Bottle Pops Easter edition, Easter Ring Pops, Rock candy tubes, Edible Candy Grass, Cotton Candy, Hello Kitty Chocolate surprise eggs, Dots, Flower Twinkle Pops, Mini Robin Egg Whoppers and the list goes on and on.

So come on over to our store and stock up on the fun and different Easter treats for your kids this year. They will be bouncing like Bunnies with excitement.

Easter Treats !

Piggy Paint has arrived !

Say good-bye to harsh, smelly chemicals and hello to

Piggy Paint . . . it’s as Natural as Mud®!

I just love this nail polish. I bought one for my daughter last year and since then we've received some other brands as a gifts and they cannot compare to Piggy Paint. The fact that they don't smell makes me not want to use any other polish on my nails too. We just received our shipment for Frankies and I can tell you that all of the colours are just too cute for Spring time. I will have to snag a few before they sell out. We also got in their Piggy Paint Pen which I am looking forward to using on my daughters nails. Where was this product when I was a kid? This really is an amazing product even if your kids are old enough and don't stick there fingers in there mouths. They even have a line for furry friends! Now how cool is that.

Caramel Goodness

Today I had the delight in trying the famed Frans chocolate Grey Salt Caramels and boy was I tempted to eat just more than one. I was pleasently surprised that the pieces were small so in this box you got 7 little bites of yummy goodness. What makes Frans special not only for there use of natural and organic ingredients but the line is also loved by President Barack Obama. I know that helped us sell a few of the boxes for Valentines gifts. Another yummy treat from Frans that we try and carry is their Gold Bite,s a combo of creamy caramel and roasted almonds covered in rich dark chocolate. Yum !

Sweet Success

Valentines (day) is now over and wow what a crazy last few week we've had. Our Pop Up shop turned out to be a huge success with next to nothing left to bring back to our shop. We are so grateful for the opportunity we had at Holt Renfrew and we look forward to doing it again soon. One of our customers who visited us came back to the store and said we should do it for Easter! So we need to think and re group and see if this is something that could be done. I think hands down I would do it again for Christmas. Being back at the store now coming from such a small set up for 2 weeks, WOW we need to order some more candy and fill this place up! So were looking into Easter and seeing what can be brought in along with now we need to work on our Easter display ideas. I love Easter and all the cute little bunny and little lamb characters and of course the super cute candy that goes along with Spring time. I'll post some more photos of our Pop Up shop soon.
Bye for now.
Have A Sweet Day!
