Hot Chocolate Bar for Parties

Sharing is caring!

A Hot Chocolate Bar can be set up at any party throughout the year but is especially good at Christmas Time. It works well with all ages as who can resist a cup of creamy hot chocolate especially on a frosty day.

A good Hot chocolate station has plenty of toppings.  Make sure to include signs with these toppings so everyone can customize their hot chocolate with all their favorites. Some popular toppings are mini marshmallows, chocolate sprinkles, candy canes, chocolate and caramel sauce and whipped cream.

While the Hot Chocolate is the star of the event, be sure to serve some other treat and snack options. Cupcakes, donuts or a fruit and cheese platter are perfect to serve alongside your hot chocolate bar.
