Inspired by the holiday of love, I selected this modern, blush dusted Lenox platter and proceeded to fill it with pink, red and white sweets. Most of the candy I picked up from Target and Trader Joe’s, then handmade the chocolate dipped pretzels.

How to create your Valentine’s Day candy board

First, pick your platter. I love working with Lenox. They have the most beautiful product and it’s all made here in America (for over 130 years).

Second, choose a color palette. Naturally, I stuck with pinks, reds and whites for a traditional Valentine’s scheme.

Place the smaller sweets in bowls around the board, and arrange the rest by type in a semi-methodical manner. To contain the bite sized candies, I repurposed these amazing Lenox nesting bowls.

Proudly serve and enjoy!

Now that going to the movies is not an option, we’ve brought the theater home which has allowed us to have endless candy options – good for our relationship, not so good for our diet.  

Inspired by Aint Too Proud To Meg, I gathered some favorite candies and my new Naomi Bay serving pieces from Lenox to put together a fun and completely over the top candy board. Since I served an obscene amount of candy for such few people, we kept our movie night soda free and elected to serve sparkling water because, well, balance.

Instructions

Gather your favorite treats

Create ‘grounding points’ for items such as M&Ms or Snow Caps that will not remain in one place.

Add large scale items including Twizzlers or yogurt pretzels

Balance color, texture and sizes to create visual interest

Enjoy!
