Hello my raviolis. Grandma-ma just found the neatest way to serve birthday and holiday treats. You can make a candy plate from hard candies like the Peppermint Mints that are usually given out at restaurants.
Lay parchment paper on the cookie tray you use so they don't stick to the tray and it makes it easy to lift off the tray to cool. If you want a perfect circle, use a cake pan. You unwrap each candy and place them in a pattern. Make sure they are touching each other.

You then bake at 350 in an oven and bake about 5 minutes. Check to see that all have melted into each other. You may need to bake it 1-3 minutes longer depending on your oven. Be sure to watch after 5 minutes.
Take out and allow to cool on cookie sheet {cools in approximately 5 minutes}
Remove parchment paper from bottom {be careful, tray is fragile and breaks easily}

I wish I discovered this neat candy plate before Christmas. Still, this would be fund to make in red and white for Valentines Day and when the easter colors come out, you can make one for Easter treats. Have fun making these serving plates and post a photo if you do. Love Grandma-ma
