Ice cream bar
Let guests customize their own ice cream sunday with all the toppings. Hot fudge? Check. Marshmallow syrup? Of course.

If sugary-sweet candy is more your style, display a candy bar with sweet, sour, and chocolatey treats. 

Doughnut tower
Who doesn't love fresh Krispy Kreme? Doughnut towers can be a huge hit with guests looking for a post-dinner sweet. 

Milk & cookies
Channel your inner child with a cookie bar – peanut butter, chocolate chip, sugar, and more – and mini glasses of milk.
