Planning a Halloween Party? Here's Why Crepes & Milkshakes Beat Boring Candy Bowls

Every Halloween party has the same candy bowl sitting on the same table, and every year, most of that candy goes untouched once the trick-or-treaters have picked through it. If you are planning a Halloween gathering in Chicago this year, a crepe and milkshake bar from Crepe Nation Express gives your guests something they will actually remember, and something that works for both kids and adults at the same event.

• Candy Is Passive. A Dessert Bar Is an Experience

A candy bowl asks nothing of your guests beyond reaching in and grabbing a handful. A build-your-own crepe or pancake station, on the other hand, turns dessert into something people participate in, choosing their own base, sauce, and toppings the same way they would at our counter.

• Crepes and Pancakes Fit Every Guest

Our Build Your Own CWP menu covers crepes, waffles, and pancakes with a Whole Wheat option for guests who want something less sweet, and rich combinations like Nutella, peanut butter, and Oreo for guests who want to go all in. That range is difficult to match with a single bag of assorted candy.

• 

  Milkshakes Double as a Drink and a Dessert

Rather than setting out separate desserts and drinks, a milkshake bar covers both at once. Flavors like Chocolate, Caramel, Cinnamon, and Oreo, all priced at 7.00 on our menu, give guests enough variety to build their own combination without overwhelming your setup.

• A Themed Stack Does the Decorating for You

Items like our Oreo Stack, with its black-and-white layered crepes, or our White or Dark Chocolate Berry crepe, with its deep red and dark chocolate palette, already look the part for a Halloween table without any extra styling or decor budget required.

• How to Order Halloween Catering from Crepe Nation Express

If you are hosting a Halloween party in Chicago this year, reach out to Crepe Nation Express about catering options for your event. We can help you plan a spread built around our Signature CWP menu, our Signature Stacks, and our milkshake and smoothie lineup, sized to fit your guest count.

• Skip the Candy Bowl This Year

Candy is easy, but it is also forgettable. A crepe and milkshake bar from Crepe Nation Express gives your Halloween party something guests will actually talk about afterward, and it is available to order for pickup, delivery, or catering at our Chicago location.
