Hello all! I’m back! And it’s December! I can’t believe the holidays are coming and going so quickly. And if you’re lucky (unlucky?) enough to be planning a wedding mid-holidays, I hope you’re staying calm. You can do it and I’m here to help you get through it…on (under?) budget. ๐
Today I bring you an awesomely cool website to find yummy foods from local artisan producers…most of which would be perfect for favors!– it’s called Foodzie…and it’s amazing. Since I’m all for edible favors, this site lists products from gourmet marshmallows, to homemade jams, to cookies, truffles, popcorn, and so much more! But perhaps what I love most about it is that is supports local, small artisan producers. In these times, it means so much to keep our small business owners afloat. Use the cool “Discover” tool to find artisans in your area (or the area of your wedding), so your favors are not only representative of where you are, but are free of shipping costs. Yay!
Remember those brownie pops I posted about a few months ago?
Well, they’re here (already made for you…yeessss) from Hermosa Beach, CA, at $36.00 for 24 of them. That is what we call in bargainista land, a steal.
Or how about some raspberry bars, or pecan coconut bars from Warwick, NY, 5 for $7.50, that you can wrap individually or serve in your dessert bar.
These Razzle Heart cookies from Long Beach, CA would look so cute wrapped in cellophane with a custom tag…and they’ll taste delicious too with their raspberry filling sandwiched between two pecan crusts and topped with dark and white chocolate. YUM!!
From my neck of the woods in Portland, OR are these seasonal handmade marshmallows in flavors like caramel apple, pumpkin spice, and cranberry for fall/winter. your guests are sure to love these tasty, pillowy treats, and your budget will love them even more at only $7.00 for 12 of them!
Foodzie is like the coolest Farmer’s Market you’ve ever seen, without having to get out of your pajamas to experience all of it’s hand-crafted yumminess. Chic, cheap, and unique! Now that’s a strike-out. ๐
