The Best Confectionery Products to Make Your Business Event a Success
Business events often include food and drinks, but they’re usually not designed to be the event's highlight (unless it’s an office party or a wedding). However, this doesn’t mean that you can’t take your business event up a notch. One way to do this is with confectionery products like lollipops and candy sticks, which add colour and flavour to the event without impeding the purpose of the gathering. Here are three top confectionery products to use in your next business event.
Sweets
It’s hard not to think of sweets when planning an event, especially an event that revolves around food. And plenty of sweets out there would make superb additions to any party. But with all those choices available, where do you start? These three sweet products will be easy on your wallet and bring smiles to your guests’ faces.
A candy buffet can be customised for any theme or event; it is always a hit at weddings, showers, birthdays, or corporate events. Put together your unique assortment of gummies in different shapes and colours. You can even throw in some classic lollipops to set off your display. They’re also great for favours—the fun shapes will put everyone in a good mood.
Sweets will not only give guests something else to focus on besides work (they can always work as distractions), but they’ll also appreciate seeing what great taste you have.
Chocolates
Everyone loves chocolate. Chocolates are one of the most versatile confectionary products in today’s market. They can be melted and moulded into your favourite shape, sprinkled on top of cakes, or poured over ice cream. Not only that, but these confections offer a diverse set of tastes, from milk chocolates with notes of caramel to dark chocolates with hints of coffee. This means you can find something for everyone who attends your event. Plus, since most chocolate varieties are relatively cheap, it’s easy to order in bulk and offer guests free samples while still making a profit.
Savoury & Snacks
While savoury and snacks are less of an essential inclusion at business events, they can go a long way toward making guests feel welcomed. You can use savoury to give people energy before they dive into their talks and panels and offer snacks at lunch or before your event wraps up. If you want guests to be munching through lots of bad-for-you treats, we’d recommend focusing on snacks that offer some nutrition. Of course, there are still plenty of tasty options that won’t leave your health-conscious clients feeling like they’re missing out.
Conclusion
There are several sweets and pastries that you can use at your business events. Any of these products are great for setting up hospitality areas for your clients, employees, or coworkers; anything from candy bars to chocolates can also be used for promotional purposes. Since sweets are so universal and everyone loves them (and you certainly don’t want your event tainted by any possible sugar-related allergies), they’re excellent choices when setting up temporary spaces or concessions at any business event. They’re also an easy and convenient addition to your event.
