We are LOVING the Tiffany Themed Candy & Dessert Table that we created for the Hartford Bridal Expo. We shared a few pictures of our table a few weeks ago, but we have SO MUCH more to share.
Some of our favorite details include the handmade Tiffany Blue Backdrop, which we tufted and adorned with gems. Do you want the truth? We stayed up until 3:00 in the morning the night before the show making this fabulous backdrop. I have to say, it was well worth it! Take a look at the photos below to check out the backdrop and some of our other cute details.
By the way, if you're interested in a candy table just like this, please contact us. We can customize just about everything you see in this blog specifically for you and your event.  Our fun gumball necklaces - we were approached by several different people at the bridal show that were interested in purchasing these cute necklaces.Do you want to add cupcakes to your candy buffet? We can do that! Look how well they coordinate with the candy buffet.

We had so much fun creating this Yo Gabba Gabba Themed Candy Table for Brooklyn's 5th Birthday Party. Brooklyn's mom, Shawna did an amazing job with this party. Yo Gabba Gabba was everywhere - from our candy table to the centerpieces, hats, and gift boxes. Oh....and the cake!! Shawna had Hope atA Little Imagination Cakescreate an amazing Yo Gabba Gabba cake - it coordinated perfectly with our table!
This party even had a DJ and ice cream sundae station! Brooklyn is one lucky 5 year old.
We custom designed everything you see in this table -the favor bags, signage, lollipop display boxes and all of the labels. We even made DJ Lance's radio. We have to say, it looked exactly like the real thing. Here are some of our favorite pictures of the candy table.
Custom Favor Bags with all of the Gabba Characters - Brobee, Foofa, Muno, Toodee and Plex. We designed the candy jar labels to look like the Yo Gabba Gabba Starburst.
Custom signs to hang on the backdrop of the candy table.
We made display boxes for the Whirly Pops. This one is of Foofa holding the number 5. Our popular gumball necklaces made with Yo Gabba Gabba colors

Custom designed Whirly Pops and Display Box. This amazing cake was made by Hope at A Little Imagination Cakes. We used DJ Lance's radio as the cake stand.

We have to thank Shawna for letting us be a part of Brooklyn's special day. It was a blast!
Up next on the blog.....a gorgeous wedding at The Riverview in Simsbury.

Take a look at the pictures and let us know what you think.
We provided White Chocolate and Milk Chocolate Covered Oreos topped with the couple's initial. The Oreos were displayed on our rustic stands. Coca Cola Gummy Bears (Yum) and a close up of our Custom Candy Jar Labels and Chocolate Covered Oreos.

Finally posting pictures of the candy buffet we created for Maloney High School Class of 2001. We were so excited when contacted by Cassandra who was organizing the 10 year reunion for her class. We were thrilled as this was our very first candy buffet for a class reunion. Cassandra wanted to stick with their school colors of green and white and incorporate 2001 and the Maloney High School Spartan throughout the candy buffet. We love how everything turned out!
The 10 year reunion was held at the Augusta Curtis Cultural Center in Meriden, CT. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the cultural center. This historical building has gorgeous tall ceilings, marble fireplaces and even a lighted glass dance floor - stunning!
A special thank you to Cassandra and the Maloney High School Class of 2001 for allowing us to be a part of this great event.
Up next on the blog.....an elegant wedding at the Riverview in Simsbury, a rustic wedding at St. Clements Castle and a Yo Gabba Gabba birthday party. Stay tuned.

Take a look at this adorable candy table that we created for our little monkey, Kendyl's birthday party last weekend. The table was full of fun candies like Pixy Stix, Sour Worms, Giant Whirly Pops, Candy Buttons, and Rock Candy. We designed custom wrappers for the Chocolate Bars. We also made gumball necklaces and matching bracelets for all of the little girls that came to the party. They came out so nice that a few of us big girls were wearing them too!
We have to say thank you to a few people that made this candy table extra sweet. Thank you to our local bakery who made us our popular Chocolate Covered Oreos. They did a fabulous job matching the colors to the candy table perfectly.
We also have to send a special thank you to the very talented Hope at A Little Imagination Cakes. At the very last minute, we asked her to create a monkey cake topper for the birthday cake. We are so glad that she was able to help us with our last minute request. The cake topper came out even better than we imagined. It was so adorable and it coordinated with our candy table beautifully! Take a look at the pictures and let us know what you think.

Here's proof that the adults liked the necklaces!  Happy Birthday little monkey! |
