First things first, you need to make sure you have enough candy! The best candy buffets out there are ones that look like they are overflowing with candy. You need to make your guests feel like a “kid in a candy store”!
There are two ways to do this. The first is counting the candy by guest and the second is by the size of your display table. Both can be a little tricky so I compiled a list of steps to help you.
If you are counting the candy based on each guest, the following is a list of steps for you!
Note: This works best for parties that are larger in size.
Step 1: Come up with a guest list. Yes, I know what you’re thinking “I already have a guest list for my wedding, birthday part, _____ fill in the blank.” Well great! That step is done.
Step 2: Come up with an estimate of how many people you are actually expecting to attend from that guest list. This will help with the amount of candy you will need to order.

Example- If you have 200 people invited, and you estimate only 125 people are going to show up; you may want to plan candy for 150 people. The bottom line for this step is allowing for error. You do not want to run out of candy!
If you have all the responses back already, and know the exact number then you are set!
Step 3: How much candy will you need to order? The amount of candy is based off of the guest estimate that you came up with in Step 2. You can count on at least 4 oz. per guest.
