Tardy for the Holiday Party

I held a little soiree over my glorious 2-week long Christmas vacation, and this little bar made an appearance. Some of my visitors were less than legal and some enjoyed the bottle of Bailey's nestled in the back. I collected anything I thought might be fun in hot chocolate or to nibble on otherwise. Height differentiation was key with this little space, since it was in such a little space.

Lastly....I have a newfound respect for Bakerella. Over the course of 2 days I made 150 cake pops and probably only 90 survived. Shown above are the misfits. The ones that passed inspection were stuck in baskets that I filled with styrofoam and tissue paper, all from Michael's. I brought them to all the family parties I attended spreading yuletide and cavity ridden cheer!

We are having a cocoa bar at my company holiday party as well and I was wondering what you used to make the cocoa... premixed cocoa? and what did you use to serve it in (the silver thing in the your pic)?
