We’ve trimmed the tree and decked the halls. Time to enjoy longtime holiday candy favorites!

90% of us plan to share or gift chocolate and candy this season (National Confectioners Association (NCA)). While new Christmas treats pop up every year, we’re feeling nostalgic for candies that have stood the test of time.

Join us as we take a trip down memory lane while introducing new twists on holiday classic favorites.

Silver and Gold might be a classic Christmas tune, but this color theme isn’t just for the holidays and New Year’s. It adds a touch of elegance to a wedding, commemorates an anniversary, and brings class to a milestone birthday, or even a baby shower.

In fact, consumers’ love of the silver and gold theme is actually a ‘thing’ called color psychology. According to colormeanings.com, silver, to many, represents wealth and innovation, while gold represents wealth and opulence. With these feelings attached to these sparkling, shimmering colors, it’s no wonder they’re selected for customers’ most important events.

Confectionery manufacturers have heard our call for everything shiny and increasingly are offering chocolates and candies that actually have a metallic hue. Put on your sunglasses and don your top hat (remember these colors are elite) as we list our beloved brightest confections.

There’s a bright future ahead. Vibrant hues are taking over 2023 — from fashion, to interior design, to party color themes — even candy buffets and displays.

But not any bright hue will do. Meet the must-have brilliant colors that need to be on your guest list.

While the official “holidays” might not take place until December 25 – let’s face it. Once December 1 hits we want to get our party on!

And we’re always looking for ways to top last year’s fun. That’s why this year we’re making things extra special by adding December’s Food Holidays to our festivities.

Whether it’s a weekday party with coworkers or a weekend party with family and friends, there are fun foods to be celebrating all month long.
