Enjoy your slumber party in style

with these overnight essentials...

The winter theme can continue through to

the party food. Go for simple foods that leave

your guests with a warm and fuzzy feeling!

• Hot Chocolate Bar: Set up a hot chocolate bar where
  your friends can help themselves to create their own
  delicious hot chocolatey drinks. Set the bar up with
  cinnamon, honey, peppermint sticks and marshmallows,
  and experiment with different flavours.


• Fondue: A pot of melted cheese with skewered
  vegetable pieces make for warm and yummy snacks.
  You could even make a dessert fondue with a pot of
  melted white chocolate and skewered fruit pieces.
