How to make your own birthday party candy buffet:

To make a birthday party candy buffet you’ll need an assortment of your favorite candies, and glass containers in varying shapes sizes. I already had quite a few glass containers around the house, but picked a few more while I was at Walmart.

Just fill the containers with candy and arrange in a way that is easily accessible for guests.

Instead of putting goodie bags together yourself, you can provide empty cellophane or organza bags that can be filled from the candy buffet. Kids will love filling the bags with their own Hershey favorites.

I used inexpensive plastic bags that zip close at the top, and provided an assortment of stick-on gems and foam shapes that the kids could use to decorate the bags.

The self sticking decorations won’t make a mess of your buffet table. The last thing you want near your treats is messy glue.
