Homemade Bridal Shower Favors

HOMEMADE BRIDAL SHOWER FAVORS TO EAT
Everyone loves food!
So, make your favors very special by baking something like homemade cookies or fudge.
You can wrap your baked favors in gold foil or colored plastic wrap.
If you don't have time to bake something then use bite-size fruit, like cherries, grapes or dried fruit, and place in decorative boxes or plastic containers.
Other Bite-size food ideas
- Salted nuts
- Jordan almonds
- Hershey's kisses
- Custom M&M's
- Flavored jelly beans

Food Container Ideas
Try to choose a container that will go with the theme of your shower to put your favors in.
Some ideas are:
- Chinese takeout containers
- Tiny paper sacks
- Shot glasses

- Plastic martini glasses or champagne glasses
- Tiny straw baskets
Tie
a ribbon around each gift and attach a computer generated 'Thank You' card to each
favor. Include the names of the bride and groom and the wedding date on
the card.
