Sometimes everyone needs a little treat to lift their spirits…and nothing does that better than spending time with friends and of course, serving up some chocolate treats for all to enjoy! Even the most casual gatherings can feel extra special with some quick & easy goodies that are sure to delight! So let the grocer give you a helping hand so that you can put on a lovely display of treats in a snap–leaving you time to kick back with your guests for a relaxing evening! Some purchased & semi-home-made goodies mixed in with easy treats and simple decorations will be sure to make any celebration a wonderful one! Have a peek at this chocolate inspired treat table…
make everything better with a little chocolate!
a buffet full of sweets…
simple details…a paper garland, heart picks and a banner made with a paper punch and stickers make a grand display for pennies!
(all items & supplies found at Hobby Lobby)
purchased brownie bites are topped with home-made raspberry curd (courtesy of my mom!) & a fresh berry–so easy!
(you could also substitute the curd with bottled fruit spreads or preserves!)
the rest of these sweets came right from the store! there’s no shame in purchased!!
chocolate liqueur makes an indulgent addition…sitting pretty with mismatched cordial glasses on a found slab of wood
…you don’t need a lot for a lovely display!
and what goes better with chocolate?
wine!
a bar cart is moved to the main attraction…making it easy for guests to serve themselves without leaving the conversation!
we never like to exclude kids…so why not create a kid-friendly version?
keep the theme going with a milk & cookies cart–complete with some chocolate milk, chocolate chip cookies, and chocolate dipped krispie treats!
paper hearts scattered about…
make a sweet & very simple display!
the krispie treats were a fun family project…and the only entirely homemade treat of the evening!
so easy–so fun–so cute–so tasty!
we hope this simple chocolaty goodness has inspired you for your next celebration…
because a little chocolate makes everything better!
