Planning a St.Patrick’s Day Party? You have the corn beef and beer for the grown-ups, but what about something for the little ones? A candy buffet is the perfect way to keep everyone happy at your St. Patrick’s Day party. And don’t be surprised if the adults help themselves to the bulk candy too. A well-constructed candy buffet is hard to resist.
The Perfect St. Patrick’s Day Candy
Here are some of our favorite green candies for you to include in your festive candy buffet:
Lime Sassy Straws – Waxed paper straws filled with lime flavored candy powder. Now that’s sassy!
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups in green wrappers – One of the most popular candies in the country replaces its distinctive orange label with a green foil wrapper to fit in at your party.
Taffy Town Shamrock Taffy – Classic Taffy Town taffy gets a holiday makeover. Each piece has a shamrock shape in the center and the soft, melt in your mouth texture you expect from Taffy Town.
Green Apple Gummi Bears – These cheerful little bears have a soft texture and intense green apple flavor. They’re even gluten free!
Green M&M’s – No candy buffet is complete without this classic chocolate candy. Luckily, you can buy them by color, so you don’t have to pick out and eat all the other colors before your guests arrive. (unless you really want to.)
Sassy Suckers Lollipops – White and green striped pops are pretty to look at and fun to eat. Stick them in some floral foam to make a lollipop topiary.
Hershey Kisses – Forget the Blarney Stone, these sweet chocolate kisses are exactly what you need this Saint Patrick’s day.
Sour Apple Laffy Taffy Rope – Twelve inches of sour apple flavor that looks great displayed in a vase or other tall container. Each wrapper includes a joke for added fun.
Jelly Belly Jelly Beans – Even sticking with the green color palate you still have tons of amazing flavors to choose from, including green apple, Kiwi, Margarita, Sour Apple Jewel, Watermelon, Sunkist Lime
Decorating Your Buffet
For a decorative touch, dig out that plastic cauldron from Halloween and fill it with foil wrapped chocolate coins and rolo candy for the treasure at the end of the rainbow.
Add a rainbow by hanging strips of red, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet crepe paper from the ceiling above your cauldron.
With a green tablecloth and some gold coins strewn around, you’ve got instant St. Patrick’s Day style.
