Sorry...Bridal Shower related

I need to find cheap and easy favors for my sister's bridal shower. I was thinking something edible because I am not a fan of dust collector items. She is doing chocolate bars for her wedding, so I want to do something different than that. Any ideas?

I wanted to do cute cookies, but all the places I found online are between $3-$4 each per cookie and I don't want to spend that much.

Thanks much.

Maybe you could make your own cookies, or chocolates.

You could try going to a local bakery and see what kind of deal they'll give you for cookies.

How about making little bridal shower themed chocolates and putting them in small white boxes and wrapping them with a nice bow and personalized ribbon.

Why not get the M&Ms in the colors of her wedding and put them in a cute tin. We went to a wedding that did this and they put a sticker on the top that had the couple's name and date. Everyone loves M&Ms. They even personalize them: M & Ms

For my shower, my sister bought a heart shaped cookie cutter and wrapped it in that lacey stuff (the word is escaping me) and jordan almonds and then tied it with a saying - "Cut out for one another." It was really cute!!

what about heart shaped cookie cutters with a recipe for sugar cookies on a tag that's attached to it? You could probably find inexpensive ones someplace.

Why don't you do your own lollipops or chocolate covered strawberries? you can even buy a package of already dipped oreo's and re-package them and decorate them to look nice? or how about buying chocolate chip cookies and dipping them in chocolate and wrapping them all nice?

I like these too, and I usually throw away a lot of favors I get. I would actually use this one.

Call Tate's Bake Shop in Southhampton. They will make smaller bags of chocolate chips. I think they ran us about 3$ a bag. SOOOO GOOD! These bags hold about 6 cookies, plenty.
