Congrats to you 
. I googled candy buffets and they look awesome. I was wondering if I could ask where you purchase the candy and do you let the bride pic out what kind of candy? Thanks
Congratulations! They may be a PIA, but I would think that there wouldn't be as much stress in them.
For the candy buffets, no the bride does not pick the candy. I guarantee at least 5 varieties of candy including a chocolate, a gummy, a sour and a crunch. Generally speaking I mold hearts or another shape in chocolate of the color scheme, use the same chocolate to over stripe yogurt and chocolate covered pretzels and start shopping. I have a local bulk shop that can order for me, and other candies I buy from Oh Nuts! It's a bit of a scavenger hunt!
Good for you..I wish I was busier....
I'm with you!!!
Congrats on the order!
Congrats!!!!
I've been cautiously excited lately because I think I got hooked up with a venue/catering place who can have me do some of their wedding cakes (I say "some" because I am not physically able to do all of them...but they were gracious enough to like my work enough to want me to do the upper packages) and they are fine with my pricing and everything. 
I haven't done the first cake yet which is why I say "cautiously" but still...its the break I've been looking for.... more buttercream and scrolls "bread and butter" cakes instead of all the detailed party cakes.
Yay! I actually just discovered cruffles this year and had a blast with them. Then again, I only make enough for work or my kids, so I would never ever have to make a number like that ... congratulations, and good for you for charging what you're worth!!
January through March his year are lean, and that's putting it mildly. I've got almost no work. Starting in April however, it's slammin'. Of course all the advertising and shows and such are January through March. Lots of $ out, not much in
That seems fairly standard, isn't it? I've been lean too, but at least for me, since I don't have a shop, its a nice break.
Mine are able to fit into mini cupcakes papers. About the size of a walnut, maybe a tad smaller.
same here
Am so happy for you.
btw- just looked at you candy buffet link. I am drooling.
I have never heard of candy buffets. Wow.. So when people do candy buffets do they have someone to give out so much to the guest? I am doing a party this summer and this is something I am very interested in having. How do I know how much candy to get? TIA
Congrats Leah! I just made 650 mini cupcakes and about 300 cake balls for a fund raiser tomorrow. They were all a pain but I figure if people are willing to pay $40 for 2 oz of soup at a time, I want to meet them! 
I make by cake balls about 1" across. Once they are dipped, 8 of them make a perfect 1/2 lb, which is how I sell them. I just really put some in the window and started selling them around Valentine's Day and have they taken off. One of my brides decided to have them on her cake instead of flowers. People seem to like the smaller size too since they are so rich.
