Willy Wonka Wonderland

Get ready to be transported to a place of wonder - a land where dreams come true!

Here are a few table setting ideas based on the movie characters Augustus Gloop, Veruca Salt, and Violet Beauregarde (don't worry, I can't pronounce it either!): Note: For all characters use fun, colorful plates and flatware. You can even switch off colors if you'd like.

We love these Smarty plates:

An Idea for Augustus Gloop Sweet Table

1. Fill a bowl with chocolate pudding and place it on top of a plate
2. Choose any thin chocolate bars or wafers, unwrap them, and put them in the bowl of pudding so that the ends stick out
3. Cover the room on the plate around the bowl with unwrapped chocolates, such as Hershey's Kisses and Rolos
4. Fill the glass next to this plate with chocolate milk

An Idea for Veruca Salt Sweet Table

1. Cover the plate with salt
2. Place either a plastic gold egg or chocolate eggs in gold wrappers on top
3. Fill a glass with milk to put by this plate
4. If you want, you can add a mini balance scale with a taped-on sign that says "Good/Bad"

An Idea for Violet Beauregarde Sweet Table

1. Put a bowl of blueberries on the plate
2. Cover the area around the bowl with individually wrapped gum
3. Fill the glass next to this plate with multi-colored mini gum balls

An Idea for Willy Wonka Wonderland Centerpieces 

1. Place a plastic white dessert stands in the center of the table
2. Put a large clear plastic bowl packed with candy on top
3. Hang a Willy Wonka purple hat on one of the pedestals

Additional decorations:

• Use icing to write the name of the character on a chocolate bar, then put it on the corresponding plate
• Print pictures of Willy Wonka movie scenes and put them in colorful frames on the tables
• Scatter miscellaneous candies by each person's plate

 A fabulous party like this deserves to be bragged about, so make sure to share your pictures on the Smarty Had A Party Facebook page!
