Your special day is all about celebrating the sweetness of love and what better way to make your shower a little bit sweeter than with wedding candy? Wedding-themed candies can be a delicious way to add some color to your shower tables. Plus, they make for a sweet treat for your guests.

Here are a few ways you can use wedding candy in your shower centerpieces:

Colorful Candy Jars: There’s something about glass canisters filled to the brim with candies that makes you feel like a kid again. Choose wedding candy to match your wedding colors and then fill several glass jars with them to place in the center of your tables. Choose jars of varying heights and sizes for a whimsical touch.

Candy Bouquets: If you’re feeling crafty, turn wedding candy into a bouquet by using non-toxic adhesive to fasten candies by the wrapper onto wooden dowels in fun flower shapes! Or, if you want something that’s even more edible, unwrap the candies and use a cake maker’s adhesive, which is completely edible. There are tons of tutorials out there to help you make a wedding candy bouquet using tissue paper, a mix of fresh or artificial flowers, or other ingredients! Place your bouquet into a vase and enjoy.

Lollipop Trees: Decorate a clay flower pot and use floral foam to create a base for your lollipop tree. Then, use a wooden dowel or decorative rod to make for the “trunk”. At the top of the dowell, place a round, foam flower ball. Stick individual lollipops into the flower ball – you can make patterns, alternate colors, add bows or rhinestones, and so much more!

After the shower ends, encourage your guests to fill up their goodie bags with the decorations as a sweet favor!

Wedding season is here and you may be planning out your dream wedding and reception. If you’re looking to add a dessert table or a candy buffet, be sure that you look at our bulk wedding candy before going anywhere else. We have a huge variety of classic wedding candy, buffet candy, and retro candy that will make guests smile and your big day even sweeter. Here are three different types of candy that you should check out while planning your candy buffet.

Wedding Candy: Classic wedding candy is always welcome on a candy buffet. From pastel mints to Jordan almonds, these candies not only look great but are super delicious. For these, stick with light colors or white, especially when you have a darker color scheme for the table. That way they’ll be an integral part to the table without stealing the limelight from fun novelty candy or pretty desserts.

Solid Color Candy: There are so many types of solid colored candy that are perfect for candy buffets, guest takeaways, or as decoration for tables. Choose from chocolate Sixlets, gummy candy, and lollipops to keep your color themes running throughout your reception.

Retro Candy: There’s at least one retro candy that will be a perfect addition to your candy buffet. Whether it’s because of the packaging or because the candy just tastes amazing, retro candy pairs wonderfully with other candies.

Get inspiration today for your candy buffet or wedding favors by visiting us at BlairCandy.com! You’ll be able to find plenty of products to fit your theme, color scheme, or tastes all on a budget.

What is the most expensive thing that your summer camp has to stock up on? Chances are, snack foods and paper supplies are some of the most difficult to stock up on. Blair Candy is happy to offer groups, church organizations, and others who qualify wholesale prices as part of their wholesale program! But why should you choose wholesale over other coupons and sales?

1. The Wholesale Savings Add Up

For instance, you can purchase the snacks your campers want, like Rice Krispy Treats, David’s Sunflower Seeds, Welch’s Fruit Snacks, and many more. No settling on other snacks just because they’re included on the coupon with a wholesale program!

Colorful, full of flavor, and tons of fun, Chupa Chups have been delighting lollipop lovers for ages! But how much do you know about these neat lollipops? Here is some of the history behind these super cool lollipops:

-Chupa Chups share the same birth year (1957) as many major stars: Madonna, Prince, The Smurfs, and Michael Jackson!

-Only seven flavors were released when the lollipops hit candy stands. Strawberry, Orange, Lemon, Strawberry & Cream, Chocolate & Vanilla, Coffee & Cream, and Mint were the first flavors. Now, fans of Chupa Chups can find over 100 flavors!

-Famous artist Salvador Dali created the iconic logo. He made a simple sketch on the back of a newspaper!
