This post is the bomb. Literally! Sorry, couldn't help myself, it's all the Christmas spirit! 😁 Anyways, today I'm showing you how to make hot cocoa chocolate bombs, from scratch, at home, in a super easy and fun way! These hot cocoa bombs are perfect for adding a little fun to your hot chocolate station, Christmas movie marathon or simply wrap them up to give to someone you love!
Coffee is the first thing I reach for every morning, so naturally we're kicking off 2020 with a cozy, delicious and warming Coffee and Donuts Bar ! This idea is perfect for any celebration you may be hosting this winter season, like a weekend brunch with friends and family, a baby or bridal shower, or simply because you absolutely looooove coffee as much as I do! 😍 Check out the easy DIYs and ideas I shared in my video below!
I LOVE setting up a hot chocolate bar for the holidays! Are you the same? Come winter, there's nothing I love more, then watching Christmas movies on the weekend with my kids in front of the fire, with a mug of hot cocoa in hand! It's one the perks of winter for us! 😍 So today, I decide to share some easy ideas on how you can style a little hot chocolate bar for the holidays !
Okay, so the traditional Scottish shortbread cookie aren't really meant to be "Christmas trees". They're just baked in a round cake pan, then cut into triangles. But I think if you dip them in chocolate and sprinkle with sugar stars like I did, they totally look the part, don't you think? :) Therefore PERFECT for Christmas and Holiday parties!
Truffles are synonymous with Christmas for me. They are super yummy and the perfect Holiday party sweet treat or homemade gift to make, to give and to EAT! And these Brazilian Truffles (Brigadeiro) are the creme de la creme of the truffle world!
Christmas is 'round the corner! Can you believe it?! One of my favorite traditions in our house, is the Christmas themed breakfast . Whether on Christmas eve, a few days before or Christmas morning itself, going all out this time of year to treat the little ones is all part of the joy! Most week days it's our schedules and 'routine' breakfast rituals that take over. And since kids wake up at silly o' clock at Christmas anyways, you might a swell roll with it! Plus, it's also nice for me to prepare something a little more special and magical for my little elves ;)
If you follow me on Instagram , you'd have seen a few sneak peeks of these cute Santa cake pops , and today I'm sharing the easy step-by-step tutorial. My seven year old daughter helped me with these ( you can see her little hands in the photos, bless ) and they are perfect to entertain little ones over the Holiday period.
Yes, it seems we can't get enough of our Holiday Hot Cocoa Bars 'round here. But it's so nice to see different styling ideas, so you too can feel inspired to create your own! This delicious buffet was styled and photographed by our fab contributors from Candy Galaxy where you can get all the yummy treats featured!! They used our Hot Cocoa Bar printables in the styling of this luscious buffet. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves! ;)
Since this week's been all about Hot Cocoa , I thought a befitting gift or favor idea would be a jar of homemade hot cocoa mix for guests to enjoy at home. It's quick and inexpensive, tastes yummy and looks so cute. Perfect gift, did you say?! ;) Oh yeah, and there are some freebies for you to download to go along with your little jar of sweetness!
Following on from our Hot Cocoa Bar pots, today I'm sharing my recipe for delicious Salted Caramel Hot Cocoa . I love hot chocolate. And salted caramel. But only recently tried combining the two into a beverage fit for the gods. This recipe is so easy and quick since I used caramel sweeties that melt straight into the milk or cream! ;)
Macarons are my Achilles' Heel . So until I perfect them, I'm more than happy to buy ready-made. And it was no different for my Hot Cocoa Bar on the weekend. I found these delicious chocolate macaron that had a crunchy (thin French wafers called Gravottes) topping and ganache filling, and it was so beyond delicious!!!
Bar carts are bang on trend right now, and I just can't get enough of them! They're perfect for so many occasions and events, and for the Christmas Holidays I love the idea of a Hot Cocoa Bar Cart. So I styled this quick one over the weekend using some of Bird's Party Hot Cocoa Bar printables .
