Fun Edible Wedding Favors

With lots of available wedding favors out there in the market, which one do you choose? There are practical favors and there are decorative favors. While both are very popular favor choices, still nothing beats edible wedding favors that your guests will definitely enjoy and use (or eat for that matter).

Edible favors are fun to give and it is more fun to receive one. Even in other social occasions, edible favors are preferred because almost all edible favors are fool-proof favors.

Brownies can be enjoyed by people of all ages and can be nutty, chewy, gooey, or a mix of all of these things. You can have small pieces placed in a box or a mini plastic bag.

Have a special cookie recipe even Santa will love? Then this is the perfect time to unleash the baker inside you and surprise everyone with your cookie recipe.

You can purchase full chocolate or bars or you can have mini bars from your local grocery store and re-pack in your personalized wedding favor box, bag or foil wrap.

Give out coffee beans for a classic appeal. Or give tea favors as an equally hot alternative.
You can go online and find after-coffee mints and mint tins that come in several unique shapes and designs. Whether you need a palace shaped mint tin for your fairytale wedding, or a mint tin printed with cowboy hat designs, you can find them all online.
Tea favors can be bought from your local store or an online bridal favor store.
Other edible favors that are seasonal are candy canes and candy-filled boxes. These favors are popular winter wedding ideas, being used mostly in Christmas or winter themed weddings.

These edible favors can be made more appealing based on how you pack them. You can use organza bags, foil wraps, or small boxes. You can accentuate and accessorize them by using ribbons printed with your wedding details, or use charms and pendants along with these ribbons.

What’s best is that most of these edible wedding favors can be made at home. You can save on cost by baking or making them yourself instead of buying them from suppliers. This can be the perfect opportunity for you to show your baking skills or a secret recipe everyone will truly love.

On your wedding day, your guests’ appreciation for your homemade treats can make you feel even happier. If you are into cooking or baking, definitely you will not complain as you will enjoy the time you spend in the kitchen. And best of all, you can impress your groom with your budget-saving savvy approach and baking skills as well.
