Notes
Make Themed Hot Chocolate Boards: Whether you're making this for a holiday or a party, you can do special themes by changing up the items and the colors of the items used. Think Frozen, Disney, White Christmas, etc.
Make a Few Smaller Ones: If you have a big group over, you might want to consider making 2-3 smaller boards so it's easier for everyone to pick up what they'd like rather than having to wait.
Make Ahead: You can make this ahead, but make sure to cover everything up with plastic wrap as you don't want your marshmallows to get stale.
