Edible Wedding Favor Suggestions

Wedding favors, no matter which ones you choose, whether decorative, practical or edible, can create a lasting impact depending on the effort and the thought you have placed on them. While most guests will appreciate receiving a small token after your wedding, what can make it more special is if the guest can readily enjoy the favor that you have given them.

Edible wedding favors are satisfying and receiving them can be fun. If you want to give favors that can instantly satisfy both feelings and appetite, here are some favor suggestions:

Whether nutty, fruity or gooey, chocolates are fun favors and you can give them in bars or in small bite-size pieces. You can have fun in packaging as well as you can place them in boxes, small bags or in small handy trays.

Cookies are everyone’s favorite. You can make them on your own or purchase them from your local bridal favors store. You can place them in small transparent bags or in tin cans.

You can also bake your own cupcakes and put special toppings and sprinkles.

After-coffee mints are elegant favors and are best given during evening weddings.

Small sachets of coffee can be given in any wedding theme, as long as you can make the sachet or pouch complement your wedding motif.

Wine is another elegant favor and they are available in miniature bottles or half bottles. Remember to order them in advance and have a wine-tasting beforehand so you can give a variety that you feel everyone will love.

You can place these wedding favors in special bags or boxes and decorate them with ribbons or lace.
Also note the shelf life of your edible favors. Remember that like other food items, they will spoil if they are not handled properly. Take note of the packaging, the location in your reception venue where you will place them (particularly if you are having an open venue such as garden or beach), and the time you will be distributing them. All these can affect the freshness, taste, or texture of your favor. Your personalized cookie may have its chocolate toppings melt and ruin the favor.

Edible favors are a great treat and they will truly appreciate the effort you have given to make sure that they get to enjoy their wedding favor. It can make for a wedding that is truly satisfying, whether sweet, salty, nutty or crunchy. If you are having trouble deciding on wedding favors, then edible favors is one of the best wedding ideas that are sure to please your guests.
