A Look At Sugared Almonds As Wedding Favours

Handing out wedding favours is a perfect keepsake for your guests to remember your special day. However, most people don't think about this one little detail. But it is a simple and affordable way to show your guests how much you appreciate them sharing the special occasion with you. When choosing your wedding favours, you may want to consider using sugared almonds like many others are doing now.

Sugar almonds are a sweet treat, but since they can come in any colour you like, are perfect for wedding favours. They are made with a candy coating that is smooth and gives an elegant touch to the candied almond. Here are a few ways on how you can use sugar almonds in your favours.

Favour box - These popular little boxes are created of stiff paper and come in a variety of cute designs. You are able to choose the colour that you want and to have names and dates printed on them as a remembrance. Their size is large enough to fit a nice selection of almonds in, but small enough to be called a favour. To decorate the box, add a ribbon that is a shade darker or lighter than the box.

Some brides like to give out special favours that can be added to someone's decor as a keepsake. One such example is glass figures, such as swans or dolphins. Using a piece of tulle, wrap a few almonds inside of it and then attach the tulle to the figurine. If your tulle is large enough, you are able to fan it around the figurine.

Little glass jars can also be used. These can be found in small square or circle shapes with cork stoppers for lids. Choose almonds in the colours you want and small enough to fit inside the jar easily. Top the cork stopper with a decorative item, like a stone for beach weddings or pearls for an elegant one.

Small bags are also perfect ways to create affordable favours that can be made right at home. Choose bags in materials like burlap, organza, crocheted mesh or whatever sheer material that would go with your wedding theme. You can decorate the bags with beads, flowers, or ribbons before placing your almonds inside. This will give you a charming yet affordable keepsake for all your guests.

A lot goes into planning a wedding, and even the smallest detail is important. When choosing your wedding favours, you have a lot of options and ways to send your guests off with keepsakes. Ones with sugared almonds are not only cut little pieces to display, but to snack on for a sweet treat.
