December 5, 2014 by Carisa

Tips for making the perfect Hot Cocoa Bar from Messes to Memories

This is a fun and easy way to have a dessert night that everyone will love! We are doing a Hot Cocoa Bar next week as a part of our Christmas countdown…

They are so easy to throw together really quick and a Hot Cocoa Bar is a great addition to any party!

Plus, its nice to have a nice hot drink on those cold nights. This would be perfect to have set up after a sledding trip or a night out on the town enjoying the lights.

Some tips for making the perfect Hot Cocoa Bar…

1. Keep it simple! Holidays can be crazy and busy, don’t let a simple Hot Cocoa Bar get you frazzled, enjoy it!

2. Make sure you have something to stir with… Chocolate covered spoons are my favorite! They’re fun, pretty, easy and delicious!

3. Add candy canes… for a delicious holiday flavored chocolate drink!

4. Definitely include marshmallows for the kids. I think this is probably a no-brainer! 🙂

No hot cocoa bar is complete without a bowl of marshmallows...

5. Little snacks… Add some color and excitement with some extra little treats. Green and red peanut M&M’s add crunch and peppermint kisses are pretty, soft and delicious. You might even want to include some cookies to dip!
