Spring has sprung!  The sun is shining and the birds are singing!  Bust out the bright colors from your closet…open-toed shoes, beach-bag-sized purses, and adorable lightweight tank tops!  It is also time to get your party hats on to celebrate the warm weather !  And what better way to brighten up a party then colorful, fun and easy edible centerpieces and party favors!  Looking around at our vast array of brightly colored candy got Amy thinking!  So here are some ideas for kids parties, adult parties or just little gifts for our awesome friends!

Ever thought of lollipop bouquets?  Try taking pink jolly pops and arranging them in a short vase for a baby shower.  Or tie a few together at the stick to create a hand held bouquet for guests to take with them.  We not only have pink, but grape, cherry, lemon and lime!  If the mother to be doesn't know what her baby's gender is, a great lollipop idea is Charms Cotton Candy Pops- a blend of pink and blue to keep the guests wondering.

For a kids party you could do the same thing but use our tootsie roll pops or tootsie roll mini pops- double the treat since it is not just a lollipop but a tootsie roll too. 

Or how about taking Jelly Belly’s, Jolly Ranchers or Starburst Fruit Chews and placing them in clear cellophane bags and tying with brightly colored ribbon.  Scatter them on your table for color or again give them out to your guests for a treat! 

All of our Tootsie Roll Frooties could also make a great colorful statement for spring!  Cherry, grape, green apple, blue raspberry….the options are endless!!  Place in a bowl for color and for people to snack on while chatting with friends! 

So welcome to spring, host a party and enjoy some yummy treats from Southwest Candy!!
