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.

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.
