Gingerbread Cocoa Bar

11 years ago

Here's my version of OA's cocoa bar.
OA, thank you so much for sharing.
I had fun putting this together and my guests last night really enjoyed it.

I feel the fabric is a bit much; but, my 17-year-old mentally challenged son was my helper and he LOVES this. So....

The eight mugs were a TS find for $1.98 a few years ago.

The three-cupped dish was a TS find this year for .49.
The little scoops in it were also a TS find this year for .75.

The candycane base was a TS find about two years ago.
I tied the gingerbread/red ribbon around it.

The lady gingerbread is part of a TS salt/pepper set.
She has ground cinnamon.

Santa came for a visit with the grands last night.
I baked some treats to go with the cocoa bar.

The sugar/creamer were a TS find.
All the candycane dishes were discount store.

The cake stand is probably one of my favorite finds.
Was $49.95 at a Christmas store in Pigeon Forge.
Four of the little connecting wires were missing so I got it at 90% off for $4.99.

Holy Toledo! What wonderful foodie places you've set up.

The Gingerbread Cocoa Bar is perfect. And I love the fabric. If you can't use it for a Cocoa Bar, when can you use it?? It says, "Step right up for a yummy treat!"

That three cup candy cane serving piece is terrific. I want one. Santa, are you listening?
Are those ceramic gingerbread baskets? I'm talking about the napkin holder and the rolled wafer holder. They are adorable.

Merry Christmas. HO, HO, HO!

YUMMY was the first thing that came to mind... ;o)
and the Gingerbread smiles make it so 'happy' too.

Can't believe the buy you got on that cake stand. WOW. That sure called for a Happy Dance I bet.

I think its really sweet your son wants to help, tell him he did a good job on that fabric, it goes very nicely with your cocoa bar.

So glad you joined our gang! Merry Christmas, Gail.

Gail, your Gingerbread Cocoa Bar is wonderful. So sorry I missed out! Bet the guests were wowed by it and still think of it every time they see something Ginger related. Your cake plate was a super deal.

Looks like you've found so many cute things at great buys. I never pass on Ginger things after Christmas or at ys.
