Hey there, friend! I'm Savana Conner, the proud founder of Savvy's Sweets and a mama to four beautiful kiddos here in South Texas. I started this little freeze-dried candy business out of my love for fun, flavorful treats and my even bigger love for creating joyful moments with my family. Over time, I've learned that candy isn't just for snacking—it can be a sweet way to celebrate some of life’s biggest milestones.
Today I want to share with you one of my favorite ways people are using our freeze-dried candy: as party favors for baby showers, weddings, and all kinds of special events. Whether you're planning a Southern bridal brunch, a whimsical baby shower, or a big ol' backyard wedding, freeze-dried candy adds something fun, unique, and unforgettable to the celebration.
Why Freeze-Dried Candy Makes the Perfect Party Favor
When you're planning an event, you want every detail to feel special—and let me tell you, freeze-dried candy is a crowd-pleaser! Here’s why:
-
It's different. Not everyone has tried freeze-dried candy, and it makes people say, "Ooooh, what is this?!"
-
It's beautiful. The colors pop and the shapes are fun—they look gorgeous in clear bags, jars, or mini boxes.
-
It's mess-free. No melting, no sticky fingers, and no refrigeration needed. Perfect for outdoor weddings or baby showers in the Texas heat!
-
It lasts. Freeze-dried candy has a longer shelf life than traditional sweets, so you can prep ahead without stressing.
Baby Showers: Sweet Treats for Mamas-to-Be
There’s something so precious about welcoming a new baby into the world, and what better way to thank your guests than with something sweet and surprising? Our Candy Nachos, Cotton Puffs, and Peachy O’s are always a hit at baby showers. You can match the colors to the baby’s gender or do a fun pastel mix for a neutral or rainbow theme.
A lot of mamas-to-be order custom assortments from us to fill little jars or treat bags. We can help with custom labels, too, so your favors look as thoughtful as they taste.
Weddings: Make It Memorable
When it comes to weddings, I always say, "Let your favors reflect your flavor!" Freeze-dried candy is an unexpected touch that guests will remember. From Frittles (our take on freeze-dried Skittles) to Spicy Watermelon Crunchers for the bold snackers, there’s something for every kind of sweet tooth.
We’ve created custom wedding favor bags in elegant neutrals, fun tropical colors, and even spicy red and orange themes for Texas weddings with a little kick. It’s affordable, fun, and gives your guests a little taste of your personality.
And for candy buffets or dessert tables? Oh girl, don’t even get me started. Freeze-dried candy adds texture, color, and a crunch that pairs beautifully with softer treats like cupcakes or cake pops.
Birthday Parties & Beyond
Let’s not forget birthdays, school celebrations, team banquets, and even retirement parties! We do Pick 'n' Mix bags and themed assortments that are kid-friendly and adult-approved. Plus, our Oopsie Bags (the candy that may not look perfect but still tastes amazing) are a great budget-friendly option for big crowds.
Custom Orders? You Bet!
As a small business owner and mama, I understand that every event is personal and every budget matters. That’s why we love working on custom orders. You can choose your flavors, your packaging, your colors—we’ll help you bring your vision to life with treats that taste as good as they look.
Just send us a message with your event details, and we’ll get to work on something special for you. We ship all over the U.S., and we offer porch pickup here in South Texas too.
