Slow Cooker Hot Cocoa Bar Station
/Slow Cooker Hot Cocoa Bar Station
If you love a delicious cup of hot cocoa and are serving it for a crowd at a party or event, then you will love this Slow Cooker Hot Cocoa Bar Station idea! This hot cocoa bar is a perfect looking setup for parties and makes for a fun way to make and display the cocoa. There are so many ways to customize different ingredients in your cocoa to make it just the way you like it. With this hot cocoa bar, you can have all the fixings for the hot cocoa ready to go and all you have to do is mix it up and turn on your slow cooker 2 hours before your company arrives.
One of my favorite things to do for company is to be very detailed with the small things, but also be practical and leave yourself time for the other things you have to do and not be rushing to make the cocoa last minute. It's also a fun way for the guests to get creative when making their own cup!
Some of my favorite things to add in the hot cocoa station and on the tray are heavy whipping cream, Chocolate chips, sprinkles, cookies, cinnamon sticks, caramel, and candy canes. Christmas is such a special time of year and adding in little touches to the station like Santa mugs and Holiday decor will help the area feel even more special and festive for all your December celebrations!
