Galentine's day is real and I love it. It's actually not just Valentine's day with your girlfriends. Well, it kind of is but it's actually celebrated on February 13th and originates from the show Parks and Recreation. This Candy Charcuterie is the perfect way to celebrate Galentine's Day complete with The Perfect Man chocolate and all the special touches your bffs will love. Sending a thank you to Treat Street for the samples of The Perfect Man Chocolate that I thought would be perfect for my dessert tray!

Charcuterie boards filled with loads of candy are such a hot trend right now and I'll admit falling deeply in love with them. If you are looking for the best party ideas, I'm loving this fun twist for Galentine's Day. Can't think of a better way to enjoy a fun evening in with friends.

Call your friends and make plans, ladies! This tray of goodness is perfect for a chick flick marathon if you ask me.

GALENTINE'S DESSERT CHARCUTERIE WITH CANDY

The color theme: shades of purple and red. Loving how these colors really came together perfectly, I'm normally a fan of pastels, but these pretty colors totally float my boat. The Perfect Man Chocolate makes for the perfect talking point... or giggling point on this gorgeous spread. I have to admit that this was one of the more fun candy charcuteries that I've put together. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Here are some goodies that I used to make this. There is also a convenient printable list below.

• The Perfect Man Chocolates
• Foil Wrapped Kissy Lips
• Heart Shaped Candies & Chocolates
• Matching Gumballs
• HERSHEY'S KISSES SPECIAL DARK Chocolate Candy
• Rose Shaped Ring Sucker Pops
• Matching Sprinkles

First step is to decide on your own color theme.

Then, choose which candies and treats you would like to include.

Lastly, add all of the candy and use little mini dishes and bowls to separate items and add visual interest.

Enjoy every single nibble of awesomeness.
