I love food themed party favors. If you’re planning a celebration, you want to provide something more premium and unique than bulk candy from the local party store, right? Check out my recommendations below on three companies to use if you want to elevate your candy game. These treats are perfect for bridal showers, bachelorettes, weddings, and birthday parties.
Sugarfina®: Sugarfina is basically a sparkly adult version of the candies you loved as a kid. I love the unique candies, flavors, and simple yet sophisticated packaging. Some of my favorites are their Champagne Bubbles and Champagne Bears®. These little cuties are infused with champagne flavor and really take your candy game to the next level. You can get these in cute “taster packet” size pouches (perfect for gift bags) and “candy cube” size which is nice as more of a stand-alone item. Don’t forget all of the other cool summer and cocktail themed goodies on their site. You can order online or visit one of their boutiques. This is the spot to go when you want to elevate your candy game!
Chuao Chocolatier®: If you want to give out something more sophisticated than bulk chocolates from your local grocery store, Chuao Chocolatier is your new best friend. I LOVE their unique flavors and cool mini bars that are perfect for gifting. Farewell boring flavors like milk chocolate and dark chocolate…Hello to Strawberry Waffle Wild, Potato Chip, Pop Corn Pop, and Baconluxious! These aren’t your run of the mill flavors and they feature real ingredients. For example, the Potato Chip bar has real pieces of kettle cooked chips mixed into the bar. I used Chuao’s breakfast themed bars at a brunch birthday party I planned and they were a hit! These bars are fun and playful and will bring a smile to your face. Order online or visit in person if you’re in southern California.
Vosges Haut-Chocolat®: These chocolates are the sophisticated version of your favorite chocolate bar. They have unique flavors such as the Coconut Ash & Banana Super Dark™ Chocolate Bar, Guajillo & Chipotle Chili Super Dark™ Chocolate Bar, and a Pink Himalayan Crystal Salt Caramel Bar. If you’re not sure if you want to try a full-size bar, their “Chocolate Library” has 9 mini bars. Perfect for gifting as a full set (e.g. hostess gift), or you can purchase and pass out the mini bars as favors! Vosges has stand-alone boutiques in Chicago and New York, and their Lincoln Park Chicago location has a cafe where they can create cool chocolate themed drinks for you!
