Perfect Presentation Platters

I used all my favorite new pieces from @mackenziechilds including the stackable mugs, which I linked here for you on LTK or individually below! These are definitely investment pieces, but the quality is superb, and I’ve slowly added to my collection over the years. I also love how they make amazing gifts or heirlooms and have a variety of patterns and colors to choose from. You can also use code for LIFEBYLEANNA20 for 20% off your purchase for a limited time!

Can I Prep This Holiday Hot Cocoa Board in Advance?

Yes! You can set up the marshmallows, candy, and sprinkles while the hot chocolate is in the crockpot. It’s also so handy to make the hot cocoa in advance so you can focus on other things! (Like panic cleaning kids toys by shoving them into closets.) Or is that just me? 🙂

Storing Leftovers

If you have any leftover marshmallow products, sprinkles, or candy from your Holiday Hot Cocoa Board, you can transfer them back to their original packaging or a Ziploc Bag and store at room temp. You can also transfer any leftover hot cocoa to a Tupperware container and refrigerate, where it should stay fresh for several days. To reheat, microwave for 30-second intervals until preferred heat is reached, then carefully transfer to a mug.

Happy Holidays!
