A seasonal treat on the office table can change the mood of a whole day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Halloween<\/strong> brings the fun, creative side: decorated cupcakes, cake pops, themed cookies and little touches that raise a smile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Castanyada<\/strong> brings the traditional flavours of Catalonia, with <strong>panellets<\/strong> (traditional almond sweets) as the star of the show, a classic that reminds almost everyone of something.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, they\u2019re the perfect excuse for teams, departments and colleagues to gather around something delicious, with no meetings in between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:44px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What we prepared for company celebrations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Seasonal cupcakes<\/strong>, to share in the office.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cake pops<\/strong>, a fun, easy-to-hand-out bite.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Decorated cookies<\/strong>, ideal as a little gift for each team member.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Panellets<\/strong>, for those who prefer the traditional.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Finishing touches<\/strong> that make a celebration feel like a mini party, beautifully presented down to the last detail.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:44px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ideas for celebrating Halloween and Castanyada in the office next year<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>A themed breakfast<\/strong> to start the day in a good mood.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A shared dessert table<\/strong> in the common area, open to the whole team.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A small gift for each colleague<\/strong>, left on their desk as a keepsake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A costume or table-decorating contest<\/strong>, with a prize for the winning team.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A themed after-work<\/strong>, with some nibbles and a glass of wine to end the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A thank-you to clients or suppliers<\/strong> with a seasonal treat.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:44px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s coming next: don\u2019t miss out on your treat<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It happened with Halloween and Castanyada, and it will probably happen again with the next dates. Seasonal editions are limited, and when they\u2019re gone, they\u2019re gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This November, for example, we have our <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theboardbarcelona.com\/es\/producto\/sliced-cakes-board\/\">Pumpkin Chocolate Marble Cake<\/a><\/strong>, a limited edition available only until the end of the month.
