A fun and Easy Hot Cocoa Bar perfect for a simple friend get together or to leave up all Winter!

Happy Friday friends! I am SO excited to be able to share this Hot Cocoa Bar with you today! I teamed up with some good friends to put this setup together and I think it turned out so beyond cute! This is perfect for a family party, brunch, a sledding or snow day, Christmas morning or even to just leave up all winter long!

The first thing we did was go to our local Tai Pan Trading and shop for all the goodies! They have such great stuff! We picked up the hot cocoa mugs and stand, bowls, wood crate, topping jars and the ribbons!

They have so many great things for your entire home! And their show rooms are filled with gorgeous Christmas trees if you’re looking for some major inspiration and need to buy some new ornaments!

Now back to the Hot Cocoa Bar! We all worked together to choose the toppings and setup the whole table, but then we all added our own person touches to make it extra perfect!

In my opinion the toppings are what make a hot cocoa bar! So, I figured I share what I think are must-have toppings:

HOT CHOCOLATE BAR TOPPINGS

  • Andes Peppermint Baking Chips
  • Andes Chocolate Mint Baking Chips
  • Health English Toffee Bits
  • Mini Marshmallows or Mallow Bits
  • Cinnamon Sticks
  • Pirouette Rolled Wafer Cookies

Really, the topping options are endless! Those are just a few of my favorite!

I also fell in love with the new Hearth and Hand Kettle and knew it was a must have for the winter months! And then I also put together my Whipped Cream Spoons!

Come check out all these Hot Chocolate Bar ideas!

Whipped Cream Spoons are a family favorite around here! When my kids are heading out to play in the snow, I can quickly throw some together, stick them in my freezer and they’re ready for my kids when they get back in the house!

I also love that they help cool down the hot cocoa for my kids!
