Guide to Candy Bouquet Gift Baskets

Candy bouquet gift baskets are a fun alternative to sending flowers. Candy of all types and sizes are arranged in a bouquet and placed in a basket that you can send to that special person on your list.

While holiday candy gift baskets are becoming a popular trend, giving candy baskets can be done throughout the year for many events and occasions.

1. Give candy gift baskets as promotional giveaway items.
2. Use candy bouquets as marketing and advertising tools by customizing them.
3. A candy basket can make a great reward that promotes good work ethic and communication between management and employees.

Candy gift baskets should be given with thought behind them. While it's easy to choose any simple basket, take the time to customize the basket for the receiver. If your employee enjoys golf, find a golf basket. If she likes movies, look for a movie-themed chocolate candy bouquet.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Give candy bouquet gift baskets to employees

Reward your employees with a sweet gift they can enjoy. Give them candy gift bouquets to show your appreciation for their hard work.

I recommend: Show employees you care by sending them birthday baskets. Set up an online account with AC Bouquet, and they'll keep track of birthdays or anniversaries for you, and automatically send the bouquets out. If you have an employee of the month program or other incentive program for workers, send a Thank You basket to show your appreciation.

Send a chocolate candy bouquet to clients or customers

Whether you want to show your appreciation for a great business relationship or you're looking to woo a potential client, there are tasteful candy bouquet choices.

I recommend: Send all your clients a corporate thank you for supporting your business. Have your business logo printed on the ribbon or bouquet wrapping as an added marketing tool. You can add your logo or information on M&Ms or Hershey's bars. Send potential clients a classy bouquet that says "we would really appreciate your business."

Use candy baskets as prizes or incentives for business sales

Candy bouquets make great prizes for office parties or giveaways for promotional events.

I recommend: Give a wide selection of baskets that show your appreciation like the Thanks a Million basket with 100 Grand candy bars in it. Find a large selection at Candy Bouquet online or at one of their local stores. Offer a few sugar-free candy bouquet baskets for any diabetics on your sales force. How Sweet of You offers candy bouquets for all occasions.

Find themed baskets your clients or employees will enjoy

When you send a candy bouquet that's tailored to the recipient's likes, you'll get a more grateful response and the recipient will feel more appreciated.

I recommend: Give your poker-playing employees the Hold 'Em basket, or the movie lover the Movie's and Munchies basket. There are Over The Hill themes, pet owner baskets and sports themed baskets, and many more custom candy baskets available. Be creative and ask about designing your own themed basket.
