BGNN'S CANDY BAR! PART 1 - WE MADE CHOCOLATE OREOS!!! - BABYGIRLNAENAE's Black Wedding by Color Blog

So again, one of the sweets off the list that has a lonnnng shelf life..woo woo! We finished up our chocolate spoons for the coffee station.. just under 100 made... And then we did about 60 white chocolate covered MINT OREOS for the candy bar. We're doing mostly candy at the bar, but I wanted a few "treats/desserts" as well :) And the best part??? With the mint oreos, after you bite into them, they're BLACK WHITE AND GREEN! how freaking cool is that???? all my wedding colors in one treat!

I'm soo flipping excited that I learned to put candy in the freezer to set it. Makes a huuuuge difference. They pop right out and have that glossy finish! yay! Super easy DIY and saves us money on one more overpriced colored candy that we'll be buying :) I have a few tricks up my sleeve to cut costs on all these candies.. I'll keep you posted! :)

Oh and I'm trying to put a cute little note with each candy/dessert... Like these are the FH and GM Curtis's faves :)

Do you have any unique ideas for your candy bar to share? Or ways to cut some costs? Please share!

Um YUM!!!! I want one! Those look A-mazing! You are so stinking cute and creative my dear!

OMG! Can I come to your wedding pa-leaseeee?? These look really YUMMY! :) You are doing great with these treats girlie! I was thinking about doing a dessert/candy table but my caterer said no outside food and drinks :(

Thanks Amanda.. I miss your guts! So glad your back! xoxox

Casie, hahahahah too funny!
boo to the caterer.. that stinks :( It's understandable but seriously.. we had a lot of people tell us the same thing. I luckily got my caterer to love me pretty quickly.. she's really hooking us up.. I really need to post about her. She's my heart :) Just a wonderful woman and is loud and crazy like me.. I heart her!

Wow these look so delicious. I LOVE white chocolate, they are my weakness! lol! Your guest are gonna love them and your right about the green oreos, that is gonna look great when they bite into it. Did you use a mold for dipping because they look perfect.

@sandyee.. oh yes! I deffinately used molds. Bought them at Michael's... 1.99 and used my 40% off coupons :) Each one had 8 heart molds :) took two batches to get them perfect w/o any oreo showing.. but once we did, we were pushing out like hotcakes!!! They literally are molds to cover oreos with choc :) I have them for all diff occassions.. Really cute ones for Halloween.. my fave holiday :)

Thanks..next time I am at Michaels I will have to check it out.

These look delicious and they are making me crave sweets. I'm now trying to think if I have any chocolate stashed anywhere....darn it, nope I don't.

These both look so fab. Great job. Also love how the cookies are all of your colors.

awesomeJob! I'm going to have to try this!!

You did a fabulous job and LOVE the mint oreos mmm mmm good! Can't beat the colors either ;) I wanted to do a fun spin on a dessert buffet, so I am doing a soft serve ice cream station and the toppings will be in out colors. I am going to have to keep watching for more great ideas from you!

So when is my invite getting mailed to me?? ;) If anyone has a negative thing to say about your wedding, I am going to have to hunt them down, smack them upside the head, & tell them they are CRAZY!!!! You should be SO proud of yourself & all of the hard work you are putting into your big day!! You truly are not missing any detail :)

@macbride..hahah I'm sorry! lol but thank you! hahah!

@dreamingofpur Thanks a bunch :) I love the colors! so excited

@fallinlove.. you should! It was quick :)

@prncss.. ohhhh that's a great idea! I love that!

@Sara, you crack me up! hahahah thank you so much :)

OMG! Im soooo fav-ing this! What a cute and unique idea for oreos!!! Love it!

Just went back and re-looked at all of you stuff and noticed I've been ooohing over alot of your wedding ideas and things so my question is " Will you be my Maid of Honor?"

Love all your wedding stuff!

oh you are doing an amazing job!!!! my girlfriend at work is makes cake balls and offered to make some to put in my lolipop stands rather than the lollypops... i can't imagine making the candy all myself!! you are doing a freaking fabulous job!

so do you think in the end that after buying the molds and the ingredients and supplies to make everything, that you did save alot of money? i may have to look into doing some myself if you do!

how are you going to store them until the wedding comes?

@sonlove... yay!!! I love these.. I hope you do them too!

@dreamingofpurple! hahahah thanks for the compliment :) too cute!

@ lori.. Molds, chocolate, oreos in all... was exactly 12 dollars and change with tax and they fill a huuuuuge old fashioned candy jar we bought. A jar 1/3 of the size with the colored candy you buy on the websites would have costs about 12-15 to fill. So in that aspect it saved a ton! We are buying tons of the colored candy.. but this will be alot to go around, for only 12 :) Most of the colored candies are 3.99 and up a lb..and a lb of candy isn't much. I'm thinking for some of my bigger jars.. you can even put some pretty tissue in your colors bunched up at the bottom and then start pouring your candy over it :)

Oh and cake balls.. oohhh emmm geee.. so flippin good!!! I went to an open house at my caterers, and there was a lady that did candy bars.. and she had them.. she told me then the recipe.. I just remember cake and cream cheese... omg sooo good! I'd totally be making them if I didn't have to wait until right before! I can't wait to see pics of yours!

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

It's around that time of the month and these look GOOD!!!!! Yummy, yum, yum!

hahahah I feel ya Rhonda!!!! thanks!!!

You are killing me here!! Kicking my cravings into high gear!!! lol These look amazing and adorable and sooooooo DELISH!!

You are a stinkin superstar girl!

These are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! I am beyond impressed!! And the gloss, wow!! They for real look professionally made!

UM.. Ohhh Emm Gee... These are my fav. :) Your guests are going to eat them up! :)

@JEANETTE AND TASH Thanks loves! i'm super excited to eat one myself! bahahhaha

@ Nidhal Thank you so much! that's such a compliment. I've made these molds for years and they always look neat.. but not shiny... they were always dull and kinda rough looking.. when I googled about the freezing to set and did it.. I screamed.. FH came running and I was OHHH EMMM GEEE! after all these years.. 5 mins in the freezer fixes it??!?!?!?! lol I can't wait to do all my halloween witch fingers and spiders on my oreos! lol

@seaside.. thanks hun!!! They smell out of this world too!!!
