Need information on lollies...

[Mully]

...maybe this should be in biker angels :dodge:

Anyhoo, as some may be aware, I have decided to do the honourable thing and Miss Mully are tying the noose, umm, I mean knot next year.

We want to do little bags of lollies as part of the gifts to the guests (why we need to give our guests gifts puzzles me, but I digress).

Our colours are silver, black and white. My job (and by delegation, KBs job) is to find lollies that work. We will be buying them in bulk and making up the little bags ourselves.

Does anyone know what lollies we can use? Ive come up with those Cola Roller things (look like chrome ball bearings) as the silver ones, but I cant think of any others. I discounted the bullseye ones because they go all sticky.

So, please help!!!!]

Oh, and if anyone knows where we can get little (200ml) bottles of wine printed with custom labels, please let me know.

TIA,
Mully

Try getting in touch with CANDYLAND down near Hamilton they might do a custom run of something for you. Who knows it's worth a phonecall.

[Meekey_Mouse]

Congrats!

I do have to agree with you.. Biker Angels probably would of been more suitable :bleh:

White: Milk Bottles, peppermints (life savers etc) and depending on what temperature they would be in you could get the small Dreams (white chocolate bars)

Black: Could do some liquorice but a lot of people don't like it or classic M&M's

Black and White boiled candy

Silver is a hard one :crazy:

[CookMySock]

Take a trip through one of the large commcial wholesalers and have a gander.

Yup, I agree, thems the ones to talk to...Last time I was there I spent $40.00 on sweets....fuck knows how!

Black and white...aniseed balls - taste fucking awful but if you are really gripped up on the colours they could work.

I remember my sister (as kids we were) got one of those things stuck up her nose....<_<

nah they are yum!

[Gremlin]

I'm with the mouse on milk bottles... yum... but ideally, the different lollies should be roughly the same size.

Alternatively... find some edible silver (or any colour) paint? :whistle:

I hereby volunteer my services (I see you're in Auckland) to assist in the disposal of any lollies that err.... need disposing ;)

[Swoop]

(I see you're in Auckland)
Surely some Jaffas would be appropriate?

[Usarka]

I can get some little baggies of um lollies, but they're not cheap..... :innocent:

The black and white boiled lollies I'm thinking of are peppermint flavoured; black balls i think they're called (yahoo, always made me snigger as a kid thinking of eating those....).

Hahaha, when i read that it reminded me that as kids I stuck a bead up Katman's nose and just as mum was about to say "Steve don't...." of course he sniffed! We never saw it again.

I have the same issue with it hell they are comming to ours and getting a free (expensive I might add) feed

Anyhow the interweb is your friend a clicky link (http://www.lollyshop.co.nz/) for you.

Oh there is a place here in Christchurch that makes lollypops etc and candy rock, they can put in the rock names and hearts if you want I will see if I can get their website.
Good luck.

we went to a wedding earlier this year where the guests got little bags of CUSTOM BUILD sweets. You have to buy 5kg or something (a LOT of sugar mmmmm sugar) but they are cool. Its made like blackpool rock so you get whatever you want cast into the sweets. ours had the bride and grooms name and a love heart.

they came from http://www.suga.com.au/default.asp which is from Straya obviously but there was a crowd in Norflands mall here that did it also.


food for thought anyway.

[HenryDorsetCase]

there is a crowd who do it in NZ too

Putting the lollies into little clear cellophane bags with colored ribbons (the colour for your wedding) would look awesome if you are unable to find the lollies that match the colours you are looking for.

[Mully]

Thanks for all the info, everyone. I'm furiously investigating.

Also, thanks for the offer to eat any leftover sweets that we have.

I had considered the round black and white ones (Bullseyes/black balls, whatever), but from memory, they get sticky if they sit for too long.

Hmm, onwards and upwards in my quest for lollies.

[Usarka]

I never realised there was an upside to wedding preperations. Enjoy the search :D
