Popular Edible Wedding Favors
May 1, 2008 – 11:19 amCouples planning to get married who are stuck for an idea about what gifts to hand out to their guests should consider supplying edible wedding favors. If you cannot make up your mind about whether they should be sweet or savory, you can guarantee it will be the sweet variety that gets the ‘big thumbs up’. Almost everyone appreciates a bar of chocolate and they will appreciate it more if it has a wrapper designed for the occasion. Of course hand made or fine quality chocolate will be received with greater enthusiasm than the regular type you might buy from the local store! By having the chocolate outer wrapping specially designed to include the bride and grooms details, it adds a special touch to the gift.
If you are going as far as personalizing the wrapper, then why not have your picture printed on the wrapper to really impress your guests! Tins filled with candy are another option for brides and grooms who want to give out edible wedding favors. Guests are more likely to hold onto the tin as a keepsake if there is a reminder of where they were given it so placing the wedding details on the tin makes sense. Tins are always useful so once the candy has been eaten, it can be used to store many small items that might be lost otherwise. Candy will probably remain a favorite edible wedding favor for some time because it is so popular.
One unique way to give out candy as wedding favors is to use large glass bowls as the centerpieces for the tables and fill the bowls with the bride and grooms’ favorite types of candy. You can also leave a small presentation box with details of the wedding, and one that can even match the wedding theme if there is one. You can guarantee it won’t take long before the guests start filling their boxes with the candy. One edible wedding favor some couples overlook is cookies which can also be presented in a variety of ways. You can select cookies which are rather plain in nature but place them in keepsake boxes with the bride and grooms’ names as well as the date of the wedding.
Plain cookies are also easier to use if you decide to have your images inserted onto them. It won’t be difficult locating a bakery that can do this type of work and you can speed up the process even more by supplying your own ideas on how you would like the cookies to look. Yet another option is to hand out edible wedding favors based on popular teas, coffees and cocoas. Tea, coffee and cocoa are very popular with many people and there a huge range to choose from these days so you would not have just stick with the most popular available.
Putting the couple’s names as well as the wedding date on the package is a good idea as well as including a picture of the couple. Perhaps these suggestions will help you decide what favors you will give to your guests.
