Plastic - Tubs
Printed plastic tubs arrive pre-filled, so there's no scooping or portioning to fuss over. The sweet side is a lolly lover's lineup of mixed lollies, mints, chocolate beans, M&Ms and two kinds of jelly beans, assorted and Jelly Belly. Then the savoury crew steps in with mixed nuts and bar mix, the salty pair made for a drink, alongside dried fruit mix, fruit and nut mix, a trail mix and a yoghurt trail mix with its sweeter bits. Serves sit somewhere between a quick nibble and a decent snack. Expect the mix to shuffle a little from pack to pack, and a chipped bean or broken nut here and there is part of the charm. Everything comes bulk packed.
A boutique hotel wants guests to feel looked after the minute they open the door to their room. A little tub of chocolate beans on the pillow, or mixed nuts beside the minibar, does that without any fuss. The guest arrives after a long flight, spots it and has something to nibble before they've even unpacked. For a fresh touch on the reception desk, mints make a lovely partner.
Most custom plastic tubs can be branded with a printed sticker, and the fruit and nut mix tub comes with a full colour printed sticker included. Keep stock in a cool, dry storeroom below 22 degrees so the chocolate stays happy.
Frequently Asked
What's the difference between bar mix and trail mix?
Bar mix is the savoury option made to go with a drink, while trail mix is a dried snack mix for eating on the go. There's also a yoghurt trail mix, which adds yoghurt pieces for something a little sweeter.
Are printed plastic tubs a good fit for a hotel front desk or bar?
Mixed nuts and bar mix are the salty pair made for a drink, so they sit nicely on a bar, while mints and Jelly Belly beans make an easy welcome at a hotel desk. Keep stock below 22 degrees Celsius so the chocolate fills stay firm.
How long do the yoghurt trail mix tubs last?
The yoghurt trail mix has a best before period of nine months. Store it, like all the printed plastic tubs, in a cool, dry place under 22 degrees Celsius to keep it tasting its best.
Do the tubs come with chocolate options?
Yes, there are two chocolate fills to pick from, chocolate beans and M&Ms. Both are best kept below 22 degrees Celsius, since chocolate softens quickly in warm rooms and on sunny counters.
