Candibars

Candibars brings fun, flavour and a touch of theatre to events across Johannesburg, Sandton and the wider Gauteng region. Operating since 2010, the team creates interactive sweet experiences that suit everything from intimate celebrations to high-energy brand activations. Based in Johannesburg, they regularly serve areas including Midrand, Fourways, Randburg, Pretoria, Rosebank and surrounding locations.

Their event hire range centres on beautifully styled candy bars and Candi carts that are fully stocked and tailored to a chosen theme. Chocolate fountains provide a decadent focal point with an array of popular dippables, while freshly made popcorn and candy floss add nostalgic fun for guests of all ages. For chilled treats, slush and soft serve machines keep crowds cool, and ffles on a stick offer a playful, eye-catching dessert option that doubles as entertainment.

Candibars delivers a full-service hire experience designed to be seamless. Ingredients and packaging are included, trained operators run the stations, and delivery and collection are part of the service. A minimum serving of 50 guests per machine ensures smooth throughput at events. The menu includes halal-certified and kosher-friendly options, making it easier to accommodate diverse dietary requirements without compromising on choice or presentation.

The offering fits a wide range of occasions, including weddings, birthdays, baby showers, school functions, bar and bat mitzvahs and private parties. Corporate functions are equally well supported, with stations that invite interaction and act as natural ice-breakers. Each setup is styled to complement the event, helping organisers create a cohesive look alongside a reliable service that keeps queues moving and guests smiling.

For companies seeking impact, Candibars specialises in branded event experiences and corporate activations. Stations can be customised with logos and colours across popcorn boxes, slush cups, candy bars, carts and service counters, reinforcing the brand at every touchpoint. Popular corporate options include branded popcorn stations, frozen mocktail and cocktail bars built on slush beverages, chocolate fountain displays, candy floss stations and styled dessert and sweet bars. The team manages delivery, setup, service and collection, providing a professional, fully managed activation from start to finish. These solutions suit product launches, office celebrations, conferences and exhibitions, staff appreciation events, marketing campaigns and broader brand promotions.

Beyond live stations, Candibars offers a comprehensive candy gifting range that brings the same creative flair to presents and party favours. Choices include Candi bouquets and chocolate hampers, playful candy sushi, 30 cm sweet skewers, candy cones and themed Perspex candy boxes. Gift boxes can be curated with chocolates, gummies, nuts and dried fruit, and branding is available for corporate orders. These items work well for seasonal gifting, birthday surprises, wedding favours and corporate thank-yous, and are freshly made with delivery available across Gauteng.

What sets Candibars apart is the combination of styling, customisation and service. From personalised branding through to unique extras like candy sushi and sweet skewers, every element is designed to attract attention and encourage guest interaction. The focus is on delivering an experience rather than just dropping off equipment, so hosts can enjoy their event while the sweet stations run smoothly under the care of trained operators.

Whether the brief s for a showpiece chocolate fountain, a fully themed candy bar, a fleet of fun food machines or a branded activation that turns heads, Candibars offers a polished and versatile solution. With extensive regional coverage, a decade-plus of experience and a flexible mix of live stations and gifting, they provide a reliable y to add a memorable sweet highlight to events throughout Gauteng.

At Candibars, we believe every occasion deserves a touch of sweetness and a sprinkle of fun. Since 2010, we’ve been creating unforgettable memories with our mobile candy bars, chocolate fountains, and various fun food machines for hire.
