Movie Buffet "UP" Candy Buffet in Cream, Yellow & a 'POP' of Colour!



This is an example of an afternoon tea buffet that we put together for Karen & Jason's housewarming. They had a beautiful candy buffet for their wedding, and had such a great response from their guests they requested we put together a beautiful buffet for their gathering at home. Karen & Jason's favourite film is the Disney film "UP" and so we added pops of colour through their buffet to mimic the colourful balloons in the movie. Congratulations Karen & Jason!

Purple & Black Candy Buffet - Tara & Andrews Engagement Party by Sydney Candy Buffets

I thought I'd share with you a fun Engagement party that we put together for Tara & Andrew. They had a purple & black themed candy buffet and then a mirror image punch buffet. The candy buffet included purple and white handmade lollypops, a great selection from our purple & black candy range and a few colourful favourites to add contrast. We made a shimmer purple cupcake tower with delicious butter cream shimmer cupcakes in forest berry flavoured frosting. Fresh purple flowers were placed as the topper and in little tea lights around the buffet.
On the other side of the buffet we created a three flavour punch buffet, Cosmopolitan (pink), Black Forest (purple) and Long Island Ice Tea. Tara placed her own cake on our cake stand in the middle section of the buffet. Hope you enjoy this example of a modern spin on a purple/black colour scheme!

Adriana's Pink Christening Buffet - Sydney Candy Buffets






I wanted to share with you an example of a pretty pink candy buffet. This buffet was designed for Adriana's Christening - and features some new delicious lolly options, our imported 'pink fairy mushrooms' which taste like a cross between strawberries & cream & milk bottles and a jar of our brand new 'mini gelato cones'. Adriana's buffet also included our amazing mini ice cream cones on the stand in the middle of the buffet in white & pink.
For a special touch, Adriana's buffet also had 30 personalised chocolate bars in pink. Adriana also had beautiful balloon letters above her buffet in silver designed by 'Pump It' balloons.
Congratulations Adriana!!! Check out our other buffets at http://www.sydneycandybuffets.com.au

Fabric Pom Poms - The New Alternative to Tissue Paper Pom Poms

You might have seen these new fabric pom poms popping up everywhere - fantastic for transforming nanna's 1970's chairs into something chic - as seen in our first photo. You can definatley make these yourself for your own party - retailing around the $30.00 mark each makes them a bit pricey if you were looking to decorate a whole party. We also stock these in our warehouse and once you purchase a candy or dessert buffet with us - just request these pom poms and we can add them to your party at no extra charge to you. Its a good option if you are just looking to hire these for one day.

Here are some helpful links for you if you are a super crafty - pom pom tutorial
