Frequently Asked Questions

What sweets come on the candy cart?

Each cart is filled with a range of classic jarred sweets — a crowd-pleasing mix of nostalgic favourites and bright, fizzy treats chosen with you at booking. Got particular favourites you'd like included? Just let us know and we'll build the selection around them.

Can we choose the sweets in advance?

Yes — send us a wishlist at booking and we'll match it. Most clients pick a mix of childhood-nostalgia classics for adults and bright fizzy/sour sweets for kids. We recommend keeping at least 2 nut-free, gluten-free options for guests with allergies.

How many guests does a standard candy cart serve?

A standard cart serves 80–150 guests across a 3-hour service window. For larger events we double up on cart capacity or add a second cart — we'd rather you have leftovers than run out before the speeches.

Can we customise the candy cart styling?

Yes — bunting, signage, tablecloth colour, and bunting text can all be customised. For weddings we add the couple's names; for corporate events we match brand colours and add logo signage. Send a brief at booking.

Is the candy cart self-serve or staffed?

Both options work. Self-serve is the most popular — guests scoop into branded paper bags throughout the night. Staffed adds a presenter who manages portion sizes (handy for kids' parties to avoid sweet-related mayhem).

What happens to leftover sweets after the event?

They're yours to keep. We pack any unopened/unused stock back into clean jars and leave them on the cart at end of hire. Most weddings split leftovers among the wedding party to take home.

Candy Cart & Sweet Cart Hire for Weddings, Parties and Corporate Events

Add charm and nostalgia to your celebration with candy cart and sweet cart hire from Surrey FaceBooth. Our beautifully styled cart comes filled with jars of colourful sweets and makes the perfect centrepiece for weddings, birthdays, baby showers, school fairs and corporate events across Surrey, London, Kent and beyond — a relaxed, self-serve dessert feature that's as decorative as it is delicious.

Why Hire a Sweet Cart?

A sweet cart isn't just about the sweets — it's about the experience. It's an eye-catching focal point guests gather around, a brilliant photo opportunity, and a treat that brings out the kid in everyone. Nostalgic favourites keep the adults happy while bright, fizzy sweets win over the children, so there's something for every age.

Each cart comes stocked with jars of sweets, scoops and paper bags, and we style it to match your event. We deliver, set it up and collect afterwards — and any leftover sweets are yours to keep. Prefer a hands-on approach? We also offer a DIY option: we drop off the cart and kit so you can style and stock it your way.

Pair It for a Full Treat Station

A sweet cart works beautifully on its own, or pair it with our candy floss machine or popcorn machine for a full treat station. It sits perfectly alongside a photo booth too, giving guests somewhere to gather between snaps.
