DIY Peppermint Candy Platter
Did you know you can take cheap peppermint candy (or ANY hard candy of any type) and make a platter? It’s amazing and SO EASY! Here’s what you do:
- Line a pizza pan with parchment paper.
- Open peppermint candies and arrange them in whichever pattern you’d like on the parchment paper.
- Bake at 350 for 13-17 minutes.
- Pull it off the pizza pan after 2-3 minutes & put it flat on the counter to cool (still on the parchment paper).
- Allow to cool fully and pull off the paper. VOILA! Plate made from candy.

looks good. love to eat some.
What is the plate made of? What do you pull off . Is the plate the parchment paper? I don’t understand
R they etible?
when making the candy plate, can it be washed by hand when used? How durable is it? Adorable idea but can it be reused?
Love all these wonderful crafts. Hope to try my hand at all of them
how long will this last if i made it and gave it as a gift?
Can’t wait to try it!
Is this washable after it is baked?
So do the candies touch or do you place space between them? This is so cute!
Very cool….would this be a one time use plate?
Im gonna try that candy plate the grand kids will love it
Do u have to spray something on it to keep using it as a plate??
hey i was just wondering after the fact when we are done using it. now would we be able to eat the plate or not. that is the one thing u failed to mention
Any idea on how to make it less sticky???
i never knew of this i will try thanks
Is it sturdy, iow, does it have to be handled carefully or it will break?
I don’t understand how this can be considered a plate when its just melted candy. Are you supposed to coat it with some kind of finish for it to be a plate?
Can you eat the plate that you make out of the mints?
How do you sign it?
Does it feel sticky? Can it be sprayed with high gloss and saved?
I like the DIY
Will candy platter be sticky
Is the plate edible?
Are those candy canes or mint candies used on the edge?
can you eat this after baking I think I am going to make mini dessert dishes out of this
Making this now!!!! :)
Can you eat this plate after wards. Or do you throw it away or is it a keepsake type plate. Please let me know as soon as possible because if its edible that’s what’s I will make for the kids to eat their dessert off of for Christmas.
On baking candy into a plate….. are the plates washable?
they just for decorations?
I think the DIY Peppermint Candy Platter idea is just to cute. I just was wondering one thing though…is the plate sticky? I just thought that since it was hard candy maybe it would be!
I tried this in the same pattern as shown on the picture. Ha, I had a Mess everywhere! The candy melted and bubbled up and slattered everywhere in my oven. I only baked it for 13 mins!
Once it was taken out of the oven it was too watery/soupy to even take it off the pizza pan and then when I did take it off to cool more, it shattered into pieces.
I think this is a Fake Recipe! What a waste of time, money, and good candy!
What other candies can be used for this? Also what are the cleaning instructions (dishwasher safe or does need to be hand washed?), and can it be heated in microwave?
I fixed the peppermint plate and it didn’t turn out like the one in picture. Is there anything else I need to know?
