Hot Cocoa Stirrers - DIY!

We have so many people tell us they're going to use our utensils for hot cocoa stirrers and we thought it was about time we shared that idea with all of you! We found this tried and true recipe on about.com but there are so many variations around the web - we encourage you to find one that suits you!

You can find all of our holiday styles right here.

P.S. This makes a GREAT gift! 

Hot Chocolate Stirrers

It's just about time for... hot chocolate stirrers! 

 I went for a swirled effect above, using white chocolate and milk chocolate. Love the way they turned out!

Don't forget about this easy and fun gift!

Eat, Drink & Have S'more

With our new vintage-designed ice cream cups debuting in Wintertime, we've been playing a lot with the idea of seasonality. Sucre Shop designer Lindsay put together this dreamy hot cocoa & ice cream combo which makes me go running for s'more toppings! The idea is that the same toppings are delish on cocoa and ice cream. Brilliant! The best part? We are giving you the free printable so you can put this little shin-dig together on your own. Here's how we did it:

After gathering out toppings and some mason jars, we filled them up and used our reversible tags to address them to our friends.

(Awwww, thanks Lindsay!)

Ice cream is ready to go, topped with your favorite seasonal treats.

Don't forget the cocoa!

Save room for s'more!
