With the right chocolate and candy at hand, along with the right method in place, you can create festive holiday candy boxes to share with family and friends.

The Box – Your local craft store should have wonderful box options that you can choose from. Chinese takeout containers in festive colors like red and green are a great way to go! But they should have several options. Just choose what size is best for you.

The Filling – Similar to an Easter basket, it is wise to have some type of filling for the bottom to act as a bed for the treats you plan to place inside. Shredded or crinkle-cut bits of paper is an easy route that looks fantastic. You could also use cotton balls that are meant to look like snow.

The Treats – This is truly the fun part! Miniature holiday-themed candy Reese’s or Hershey’s Kisses wrapped in red, green, gold, or silver foil are a great place to start. You can also sprinkle in some chocolate Santa’s for good measure. A Christmas holiday PEZ dispenser makes a wonderful centerpiece for this box of candy. Get creative!

The Finishing Touch – Tie a ribbon around the box and attach a candy cane to the outside. Voila! Your holiday candy boxes are ready to be presented.
