Christmas Present


This is a very special
Candy Buffet.


It was offered to very special customers...


... children.


They live in a very special place, with very special people, in an institution - Casa da Criança - that helps children from women who are in jail, until they can get out and (re)start living their lives with their child... (or sometimes not.)


So I came up with this Santa Claus:


The ideia was to portrait Santa in a "informal" way, holding in his hands the most precious presents these children could ever wish for: love.








This is a view from the table:





With a side "mini-buffet", so children would feel free to grab some candy in case they were intimidated by the big table...






Throughout the table, I give thanks to all the sponsors of this Candy Buffet:


...for the place, desserts, patience and dedication of management and staff. Couldn't do this without you.



...for the beautiful plants and decoration items that make this table unique. Thank you so much for all the help you gave me.





...for the gourgeous, delicious macarons. Please continue to bake them!




...for some wonderful decoration pieces that give this table the nostalgic and enchanted touch I was looking for.



...for these lovely chocolate lollipops! Many thanks!

I guess the kids were not intimidated at all....!
