Remember Simon LA‘s infamous dessert platter with that big pile of cotton candy that looked taller than Marge Simpson’s hair and that set off a thousand similar dessert platters at other happening eateries? Well, special for the holidays is this fantastic pleasure platter of Christmas goodies that’s sure to put you off sweets for a year.

Making it extra festive, you now get cute gingerbread men, peppermint cupcakes, candy canes and snow balls. But don’t go into that insulin shock just yet, you also still get the chocolate and regular Rice Krispie treats, doughnuts, caramel corn, ice cream sundae, vanilla milkshake and that huge head of cotton candy for good measure.

This platter feeds the entire table (four sugar fiends easily) for $25 OR you can get a smaller platter meant for a cozy twosome for $10. Sweet! I say go here before you hit the Beverly Center so that you are sufficiently amped up to contend with the holiday shoppers scrambling for last-minute gifts.
