Having a Party? You need Candy!

Being in the candy business, I often come across people who are interested in using candy as a theme or decoration for a special occasion. Be it a
wedding, birthday party, sweet sixteen, baby shower, bar/bat mitzvah or
any kind of event adding candy adds an extra bit of goodness. Are you
interested in sweetening up your next gathering? Here are six great
reasons to include candy on the guest list.
Color choices - No matter what your color scheme, you can find candy to
match. Need red? Try Red Hots , Hot Tamales or Very Cherry Jelly
Bellys. Are Pink and brown your colors? Try chocolate-raspberry
saltwater taffy. Need some light blue? Cotton candy flavored rock
candy or some Berry Blue Jelly Bellys may help. Yellow the "in" color this year? Try banana runts. Need pink or blue for a baby shower? Cotton candy candy
sticks should do the trick. The possibilities are virtually endless.
Theme Choices - Most people would be amazed at the variety of shapes and
"themes" available in candy today. Traditional party shaped candies might
include flower lollipops and It's a Boy/Girl bubblegum cigars. Having a
party with a beach theme? Why not throw some gummy sharks in a bag and
have them chase around some Swedish Fish. Or grab some tropical fish
lollipops. What about that Fear Factor part you were thinking about. No
problem. Candy manufacturers love making gross looking, sounding and
tasting candy. Consider Big Burp, a candy with a dispenser that burps, or
Hose Nose, where you squeeze green goo out of fake nose onto your tongue
(their motto is, "It' snot what you think"). Need some sour power? Try
Toxic waste or Zotz. For those who want a real "creepy" experience, sink
your teeth into some insect candy. You can't go wrong with sour cream and
onion crickets or scorpion brittle.
Having a character party? No problem. Most popular kids movies and TV
characters now have their very own candy counterparts. From Hello Kitty
marshmallow pops, to Spongebob ring pops, to Disney Princess pez and
Spiderman Giant Pez, almost everyone is available in candy. What if you
want the star of the party to be the sweetest person there? No problem,
you can have their picture put on chocolate!
Universal Appeal-I don't know anyone who doesn't enjoy some kind of candy.
Sweets are one of those rare items that cut across gender, race,
generation, culture, or any of the dozens of other "gaps" that separate
people. I have had the pleasure of watching a parent or grandparent introduce a piece of nostalgic candy, such as Necco Wafers or wax bottles,
to a child many times. I have witnessed peoples' faces light up as they
discovered that their favorite candy is available in sugar free. I've
been delighted to acquaint visitors from other countries with some of our
unique specialties. We have a candy cart that we bring to many special events
Rarely is it just the children who come to get something to eat! Everybody
has a favorite candy!
Economical- Often you can purchase candy to use as decorations for the
same or less money than you would spend on traditional decorations. Bulk
candy items scattered around a table make for a tasty design, without a
lot of expense. You'll also save a lot of time on clean up. People don't
leave a lot of decorations laying around when they're this good.
The final reason to think about making candy a part of your next party is
the simplest and the most powerful. Candy is fun! Let's face it, which is
more fun, a streamer or a strawberry gummy? A banner or a bunch of
chocolates? Candy has a way of putting a smile on peoples' faces, and
isn't that what it's all about?
