Candy stations add fun and color to any celebration while giving guests a sweet take-home treat. As party planners in Vallejo, Tru3 Dreams Events has created countless candy displays that guests love. Here's how to build a candy station that looks great and works well for any event size.

Planning Your Candy Selection

Choose candies that match your party colors and theme. Consider Vallejo's weather when selecting chocolates and other heat-sensitive treats.

• Mix different candy sizes and shapes
• Include both wrapped and unwrapped options
• Plan 8-10 ounces of candy per guest
• Choose candies that stay fresh in display containers
• Include sugar-free options for all guests

Display Container Options

Clear containers show off candy colors while keeping treats fresh. Different heights create visual interest.

• Glass apothecary jars
• Crystal candy dishes
• Clear plastic containers
• Decorative bowls
• Tiered display stands

Essential Supplies

The right tools make candy serving easy and clean.

• Candy scoops or tongs for each container
• Small bags or boxes for guests
• Labels for each candy type
• Wet wipes for sticky fingers
• Backup containers of candy

Setup Tips for Success

Proper setup keeps your candy station looking fresh throughout the event.

• Place heavy containers in back
• Create clear traffic flow
• Keep backup supplies nearby
• Add height variation for visual appeal
• Include ingredient lists for allergies

Temperature and Timing

Bay Area weather affects candy displays. Keep stations away from direct sun and heat sources. Set up candy just before guest arrival to maintain freshness.
