💡 Pro Tips for Next-Level Shots
🎨 Presentation is half the party. Try these ideas:
Serve in mini hollow chocolate eggs or chocolate shot cups (you can buy these or make your own by freezing melted chocolate in silicone molds).
Rim shot glasses with crushed Easter candy, sugar crystals, or edible glitter.
Freeze plastic egg halves and use them as trays or mini coolers for shot service.
📸 Hosting or Content Tip:
These shots photograph beautifully. Shoot them on pastel plates, next to faux grass, or with candy scattered around. Perfect for Reels, TikToks, and Pinterest boards.
