Edible Wedding Favors - Give the Best
May 10th, 2008 by Michael Clarke
Guaranteed to be a hit at your wedding will be edible wedding favors and they can be as easy to organize. You can of course provide savory favors which can be novel but the vast majority will prefer something sweet. Although it might not win any design awards, a nicely decorated, personalized wrapper covering a plain bar of candy, usually works well.
Some people go out of their way to ensure the chocolate is from a specialist candy or quality department store. By getting the chocolate wrapping outside designed specially to have the bride and bridegrooms details, this adds a different look to the gift.
It is not unusual to see a picture of the happy couple on this sort of wrapper or even a presentation box. Another edible wedding favor option is to use tins of candy instead of bars for couples that want to try something different. These tins become mementos of the big day if the bride and groom have gone to the trouble of having the wedding details placed on every tin.
You can guarantee your guests will take the tins away with them even if they are empty because not only will they be a reminder of the day but they are practical as well. Even people that don’t often eat candy will tuck in when it is an edible wedding favor because they get drawn into the occasion.
People that cannot make up their minds how to present the candy should consider placing it decorative bowl n the center of the table. You can also supply a small themed container on the table for every wedding guest. The guests can fill the containers with some of the candy from the centerpiece at the end of the evening.
Although not as popular as other edible wedding favors, cookies can have just as much appeal when they are presented properly. Using plain cookies keeps the cost down because they will look best in a presentation box possibly designed especially for the day.
Why not place an image of the happy couple with the wedding details directly onto the face of the cookie to add a finishing touch. Cookies can be baked in a variety of shapes so all that needs to be done is to supply a picture for them to imprint. For something a little out of the ordinary why not try the unusual edible wedding favors of cocoa, coffee or tea.
You can always select specialty cocoas, coffees or teas or you can even have the packaging that is customized having your picture, appropriate quotation, poem and other message that is related to love and weddings. 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. Even if none of these ideas is too your taste, it might at least make things easier when you come decide on what you’re a favors will be.
