Cute Ways to Package Candy
- Decorative bags come in a wide variety that would look cute stuffed with candy. Cellophane bags come with stars, balloons, cherries and other designs on them as well as in different sizes. Tie the tops of the bags with pretty ribbon for added decoration. A large selection of cute paper bags that come in different colors and designs is another idea and would be a choice way to package your candy.
- Use tins to package item for candy and other treats. Tins preserve the items well and look charming. Consider traditional silver tins or different color tins that can be used for other things after the candy is gone. Line the tin with decorative paper to make the presentation more attractive and add a colorful bow on the top of the tin for an extra touch.
- Package your candy with stylish boxes. Candy often comes in the traditional rectangular box, but something different will catch the eye. Consider round "hat box" style boxes that have everything from stripes to polka dots and would make your candy look tempting. Rope handles make boxes easy to carry and add style to your candy. Around the holidays, look for boxes that are festive and perfect for that time of year.
- Treat tubs are a cute idea for packaging your candy. The tubs are round and come in a variety of styles and an assortment of colors. Consider festive holiday patterns if you plan on giving candy as gifts. Tubs also come in different sizes depending on the amount of candy you want in each container.
- If you are on a budget, use household items for packaging. For example, tinfoil can be molded into shapes such as hearts, flowers or birds within a few minutes and will keep candy fresh. Top the tinfoil with a pretty bow for inexpensive, cute packaging. Also consider paper bags. Cut the bags as you would wrapping paper, wrap the candy, and tie it with colorful string. It's a charming, homemade way to wrap your treats.
