Great Memorial Day Chocolate Party Platters!

Just one more month until the unofficial start of summer – Memorial Day!  It’s a time to reflect and remember those who have lost everything while protecting our freedom serving in our armed forces.  And with our observance of those that have given so much to our country and the many parades and celebrations throughout our towns, it also brings about the holiday BBQ weekend.   Instead of baking a cake, or serving a normal dessert dish, we’ve got some ideas that are the perfect ending to a great Memorial Day BBQ bash!

1.     From fruit to pretzels, marshmallows, nuts and even cookies, everyone loves the rich taste of their favorite snacks covered in chocolate. We can create custom platters, baskets or boxes that make great dessert buffets.

2.     Whether you are planning a backyard BBQ or are taking it to a park, beach or other off-site location, including delicious chocolates as part of the dessert options is a definite crowd pleaser. Platters of hand-dipped fruits and pretzels can add pizzazz to the dessert menu and can be easily kept in a cooler until ready to serve.

3.     It is always nice to send your guests home with a reminder of your party.  Chocolate lollipop favors are just the right size to take home and will give your guests a delicious treat to look forward to later.  

Don’t forget to be playful and have fun with it, by creating something red, white and blue to keep with the theme of the weekend. In addition to party platters and lollipops, Suzi’s Sweet Shoppe specializes in all types of party favors, custom candies and corporate gift baskets.  We are now taking orders for Memorial Day party platters, so contact us today for all your party and BBQ needs!
