How much lollies for lolly buffet
The occasion and the type of guests attending is your guide. Guests are likely to be more restrained at a corporate function. Candy Bar Sydney recommends a maximum of g per person, including take home favours.
We also recommend not filling a jar to the brim. This gives the top of the jar enough space to seal the contents… until devoured. How many lollies for a candy buffet? If your candy buffet is for 30 people, then about 6kg of lollies should fit the bill. Especially if you have other sweet items such as cupcakes and macarons, or a birthday, wedding or christening cake.
Many bulk lollies come in 1kg bags and larger and a lot of candy buffet jars hold about 1kg of lollies each. But it looks better on the table if you spread out the lollies, especially with a smaller candy bar.
Rock candy crystal sticks and swizzle sticks always make a visually dazzling impression and will add a whole new dimension of pizzazz. To create an impact and a visually appealing Lolly Buffet we recommend choosing between eight and ten different types of lollies. This will not only allow for different tastes but also provide an ability to combine colour themes whilst still giving your guests a variety of sweets.
Once you have decided on the amount of lollies you will require and how many different types and colours of lollies you will be using, you need to decide on the glassware to display your sweet selection of lollies and create a visually appealing Lolly Table.
Anything can be used from small glass bowls and martini glasses to the decorative apothecary jars with lids. Your imagination is the only limit. The glassware does not all have to match in order to create a stunning Sweet Table. In fact glassware of varying heights and shapes can make your Sweet Table more interesting.
Have a look through our photo gallery for some simple ideas. The thing to remember is that lollies come in a variety of shapes and sizes, some are heavier and some are lighter and will therefore take up a different amount of space in your glass jar.
For example 1kg of Marshmallows will take up a lot more space than 1kg of Jelly Beans so you will need to choose your jars accordingly. We also have a range of take home pack options you can provide for your guests such as the noodle boxes or coloured bags. Be sure to order your lollies well ahead of your event date to allow time for shipping.

We also carry limited variety of Lolly Bags, paper, plastic and the popular Noodle Boxes at great prices! Long stemmed glasses are a good way to add height, but are also less stable. Each jar or bowl will need a scoop or tongs, and maybe a label. Use ribbons or strings to hang labels on jars, or stick them on with sticky dots.
These are also useful for holding ribbons in place. Decorate your table to suit the theme, remembering to add height at every opportunity. Bunting, balloons, flowers, plants, and even feathers all add height to a display.
A cardboard box draped in tissue paper or fabric goes along way to create some height, and a platform for the odd bowl or jar or two.
An elegant twig tree will add height and interest and can be hung with decorative bits. And everyone loves the magic of a fairy light. Think about the surface of the table and scatter petals or table scatter. Yet also be aware of the power of blank space. Too much clutter can look over busy. Simple paper bags or cones are an inexpensive way to replicate that lolly shop look. Both are cost effective and can be personalised for the event. Remember to provide stickers so they can seal their lolly bags for transport home.
Give yourself time to plan, prepare and execute. Do your research. A rush job never helped anyone. There are pictures of lolly buffets all over the internet so have a good look around for info. There are many ways to pick a theme…. We have all your party lollies right here, and offer wholesale prices at our bulk food store. Life is sweet so take a treat.
