I’m totally looking forward to sharing Day 7 of our 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop. Even though it’s Summer here in Australia today’s post is all about our Christmas Cheer Hot Cocoa Bar. I have always wanted to set one up for the holidays even though we are generally sipping on something cooler than Hot Cocoa. And here is my chance!!

Christmas Cheer Hot Cocoa Bar
I’m sure even if it’s not hot cocoa to be had at our new little Beverage Bar, many cups of coffee will be enjoyed that’s for sure. Both hubby and I have a bit of a ritual in the morning that we enjoy a coffee together before we start our days. This usually is around 5.30am and now that it’s daylight savings we get to enjoy the sunrise together also.
I made these “Mr Clause” and “Mrs Clause” for us to enjoy our coffee throughout the holidays.
And these “Snowflake No 1 and 2” Mugs for the kids when they come to visit.
These baked goodies didn’t last long! Hubby enjoyed them immensely and has requested some more!! Don’t get me wrong I did help him….. a teeny tiny bit!!
I know that mince pies aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but they bring back so many wonderful memories. Lots of Christmas’s spent on my Grandparents Farm. Morning tea would be served and Granny would always have mince pies on hand.
So grab yourself a mug of some nice hot cocoa and be sure to check out below lots of other Hot Cocoa Bar inspiration.
Happy Sipping!

Love the mugs you made! So cute!
Thank you, Kimberly! I was super happy with how they turned out!
It looks great on top of the dresser and I love the height added to the bar with the tiered tray and the cake stand.
Thank you, Jenny! It was fun tinkering around putting it all together.
Oh I really like all of this – the dresser is so pretty! Love the rolling pins in the basket too. A very clever and creative display!
This looks really beautiful, great job!

Oh Sam this hot chocolate bar is so fun with the signature mugs and the placement in the corner on top of the dresser with the rolling pins and of course the cutlery art. Its gorgeous and in the “perfect” spot. Pinning.
STUNNING! I love it all esp that dresser!
Thank you, Deborah!!
Your cocoa bar turned out so cute Sam. Love all the little cute touches you’ve added.
Thank you, Denise! It was so fun to finally make one!
What an enjoyable space you created. I love the little car and the personalized mugs.
