About Us
Where it all began
Founded in 2010, Candy Buffet Co pioneered the candy buffet concept in Australia, evolving from boutique event styling into a creative brand experience agency. Today, we deliver unforgettable activations for major brands and celebrations nationwide – helping companies connect through creativity and taste.
What started as a simple yet joyful idea — to make events more beautiful and interactive through sweets — quickly caught on with couples, stylists, and corporate clients alike.
When Marissa Mascaro joined as Events Manager in 2011, she brought a creative spark that would redefine what the business could be. Her eye for detail, passion for design, and love for celebrating milestones turned each buffet into a work of art.
The evolution of a brand experience agency
By 2017, Marissa had become the proud owner of Candy Buffet Co – ready to evolve the business she adored into something even more dynamic.
Under her leadership, the company expanded from boutique events to full-scale brand activations, delivering sweet experiences that tell stories, spark emotion, and connect people.
Today, Candy Buffet Co creates immersive brand moments for some of the world’s biggest names – including Tiffany & Co., Google, LinkedIn, The Voice Australia, Microsoft, and P!NK (yes, the P!NK – Candy Buffet Co toured Australia with her, serving VIP guests at over 100 concerts since 2013!).
A new look for a timeless experience
In 2025, as Candy Buffet Co approached its 15th anniversary, Marissa began a rebrand to honour the company’s sweet legacy while looking boldly to the future.
The refreshed identity – complete with the tagline “Marketing Your Brand Deliciously” – reflects what the business does best: blending creativity, strategy, and flavour to help companies celebrate, connect, and communicate in meaningful ways.
Connection through creativity and taste
At Candy Buffet Co, every project starts with a simple purpose – to create connection. Whether it’s a wedding, a corporate celebration, or a nationwide product launch, each display is crafted to delight the senses and make brands unforgettable.
With more than 6,700 events delivered and over 100,000 guests served every year, Candy Buffet Co continues to spread joy across Australia – one sweet moment at a time.
