Gather your girlfriends to celebrate Galentine’s Day! What could be better than sharing a table full of decadent desserts and a bubbly beverage with your nearest and dearest? This year’s theme? A Lil Sweet Treat—because, as the saying goes, in the cookie of life, friends are the chocolate chips…and we sure do know cookies. Follow these simple steps to throw an unforgettable Galentine’s party!
Step 1: Curate The Sweetest Spread
Let Bristol Farms help with your table full of treats. Stock up on your favorite flavors of The Cookie, chocolate-covered strawberries, and chocolate mousse from our Bakery.
For a bit of DIY magic, grab a heart-shaped cookie cutter and turn The Cookie into adorable heart-shaped bites. Arrange them on a platter with a sprinkle of edible flowers for a pop of color. Then, build the ultimate dessert board featuring:
- Bristol Farms chocolate-covered strawberries
- See’s Candies chocolates
- Conversation hearts
- Fresh raspberries
Spoon chocolate mousse into individual bowls, topping each with fresh raspberries and a sprinkle of mint for an elegant touch.
Step 2: Shake Up a Signature Sip
A Galentine’s Day party wouldn’t be complete without a little fizz! The Short & Sweet cocktail (or mocktail!) is the perfect mix of tart, floral, and bubbly. Here’s how to make it:
Short & Sweet Recipe:
- 3 oz NON 1 Raspberry & Chamomile non-alcoholic wine
- 2 oz Betty Buzz Ginger Beer
- 2 oz Veuve Ambal Rosé Crémant de Bourgogne (omit for a mocktail)
Pour over ice in a coupe or flute glass, give it a light stir, and garnish with a fresh raspberry or edible flower. Serve chilled for maximum refreshment!
Step 3: Set the Scene
Turn your space into a dreamy dessert haven with simple and fun décor. Here’s how:
- Use butcher paper as a tablecloth and doodle fun motifs like bows, hearts, and sparkles. Leave markers out so guests can add their own creative touch!
- Chill the beverages on ice in a stylish bucket or glass dispenser.
- Light taper candles to add warmth and ambiance.
- Arrange desserts beautifully on trays and platters for an elegant yet effortless look.
Step 4: Enjoy & Celebrate Friendship
Once everything is set, all that’s left to do is sip, snack, and soak in the love! Snap some pics, toast to the amazing women in your life, and enjoy an evening filled with laughter, delicious treats, and endless fun.
This Lil Sweet Treat party is all about celebrating the friendships that make life sweeter. So grab your girls, pour a glass of something bubbly, and indulge in a night of pure, sugary bliss. Happy Galentine’s Day!
