There are many classy, formal, or even cute mini boxes and containers that you may use to present your ideas. Here are just some that may be attached to a table seating card or placed beside every guest's setting.

Food Party Favors Continued

There are many examples of cute and imaginative ideas. Think about some shown below:

a. Tins of mints
b. Chocolate bars with personalized wrappings
c. Honey (or some other food) with a personalized and meaningful association to the bride and
groom

Ideas for wedding novelties

Every bride (and groom) wants their wedding to be special and memorable for the family and friends that have come from near in far to participate in this joyous occasion. Often this includes incorporating some personalization using gourmet chocolate, custom chocolate creations, hostess gifts, and more.

We have found a variety of common themes to be useful in wedding party favors and keepsakes or more. All are kosher and usually Pareve, thus not conflicting with a reception that is serving meat in a strictly kosher setting:

* Custom fortune cookies (http://simchasweets.com/cukofoco.html)
* Chocolate placecards (
* Aufruf bags (for throwing at the groom the Shabbat before the wedding at synagogue) (http://simchasweets.com/aufrufbags.html)
* Bride and groom pair of cookies (http://simchasweets.com/brandgrchcoc.html)

We will continue to add to this thread over the next 2 weeks.

Mazal Tov! Mazal Tov!

Questions, questions

The interest in gourmet kosher chocolate and candy seems to be global. Despite kosher manufacturing in at least the US, South America, Western Europe, and Israel, consumer demand and taste requires the globalization of selection. The use of kosher fish gelatin for gummy candy seems still to be more common overseas. We get questions from many countries including those with an otherwise robust already imported selection. Seemingly the countries with relatively large Kosher consumer bases but little local manufacturing include South Africa and Australia.

Recent questions in the last week have been for Pareve chocolate color coated mints have arrived from Germany and Canada (Nova Scotia). For Pareve chocolate for simchas - after dinner goodies have also arrived from the United Kingdom.

The discerning Kosher consumer is everywhere - especially when there is a Kosher celebration. Ask your question to mailto:info@simchasweets.com or visit us at http://simchasweets.com.

What is Kosher?

Simcha Sweets (found at http://simchasweets.com/) carries only products that are certified as strictly kosher. Our business is under the Supervision of Rabbi Sholom Salfer, Rabbi of the Winands Road Synagogue Center. Since we do not manufacture any of the products ourselves, this means that all packaging is performed under Rabbi Salfer's oversight in complying with strict kosher laws.

In addition, in order to provide the most transparent information possible about the manufacture of all the products that we carry, we display the manufacturer certification for the individual chocolate, candy, dried fruit, nut, and novelty food items that we carry.

"Kosher" is a designation that is confusing for many. It is not reflective of a Rabbi blessing the food. Instead, Kosher is indicative of the ingredients and the care of those ingredients as they move from raw form into the processed foods that we are eating.
