Candy Gift Baskets - The Perfect Gift for the Candy Lover

Are you having a tough time coming up with a gift idea for that hard to
buy for person on your gift list?  A great all in one solution
that just about anyone will love is a candy
gift basket
or candy
bouquet
.  You can either create your own candy gift
basket or bouquet, or leave it to the experts and buy a readymade gift
basket or bouquet.  We’ll discuss the pro and cons of each
one, as well as give you some other great ideas.  



Creating Your Own Candy
Gift Basket or Bouquet



Pros: A
great benefit to putting together your own candy gift basket is you can
save a lot of money by purchasing all of the ingredients
yourself.  Another great advantage is you have more control
over what you want inside the basket.  If you know the person
you creating the basket for, then you should have pretty good idea of
the different kinds of candy they like.  They may like old
fashioned candy like Necco Wafers, Licorice, and bubble gum
cigars.  Or they might like a lot of the candy that is popular
today, like Snickers, Butterfinger, and M&M’s.  Or
they might like a combination of both, but the point you have total
control of whatever you want to put in your basket.


Cons: One of
the disadvantages to putting together your own basket is that it will
take some time, and some work.  You will have to head out to
your local super market or candy store to purchase the candy, shop for
the basket or container, and purchase any other gifts you might want to
add like a coffee mug or plush toy.  Also, it does take a bit
of skill to craft the gift basket into a stunning display.  If
you think you might have some trouble with putting it all together, you
should think about whether or not it’s worth the trouble.


Purchasing a Readymade
Candy Gift Basket or Bouquet



Pros: 
The main advantage of purchasing a readymade gift basket is the entire
process of creating the basket is already done for you.  If
you purchase from reputable vendor, these baskets look very
professional will make a big impression on the recipient. 
Online vendors will allow you to send the basket to anyone in the U.S.,
which is a great advantage if you are buying for someone out of
state.  That will also save you hassle of packing the gift
basket and hoping it arrives safely.  


Cons: 
A big disadvantage is that you don’t have that much control over what
you want in the basket.  If you’re giving the basket in
person, you can always add what you want, but that is not possible if
you plan on having the basket sent directly to the recipient. 
Readymade baskets will usually cost more than if you went out and
purchased all the ingredients and put the basket together yourself,
although, the additional costs may be worth it if you add up all of the
time and work.

 

Whatever option you choose, a candy gift basket makes a great gift to
give to just about anyone, on any occasion.  If you plan on
putting together the gift basket yourself, YouTube has some really
great videos showing you how to do that.
