Nothing is quite as soothing as a good cup of hot cocoa on a cold, winter day. It’s delicious, comforting and makes you feel like a kid all over again! Try out this hot cocoa bar the next time you have your friends and family over. It’s easy to set up, and everybody will love it!
First thing to keep in mind is location, location, location! We recommend setting it up on a coffee table or area near a fireplace. Go big or go home! Bring in some blankets, pillows and all things comfortable. All of your planning will be rewarded!
Find decorative cups and bowls to keep all of your hot cocoa ingredients separate and then each guest can make their own perfect cup! We suggest the standard marshmallows and whip cream, however, you can also try chocolate chips, sprinkles and even peppermint bark! Also, simple butter cookies pair nicely as a snack!
Different styles of decorative cups not only look great, but also help guests keep track of which cup is theirs. Bonus points if you use these awesome copper mugs!
Decorate the table using things you may already own. Lanterns, candles, small pieces of wood and small pinecones bring about a rustic feel. Bring the feel of nature indoors and avoid the cold!
Winter is going to be over before you know it, and while some of you may be holding out for the warmer weather, you may as well enjoy some of the benefits that the colder months bring. Have some laughs with friends and family and enjoy a delicious cup of hot cocoa!
