Party types

Six parties we love working on

Hen dos + bachelorettes

TEAM BRIDE on the label, a bridge of cones for the after-party.

The two-line label takes "Hen of the Year · Lisa Was Here". Pair with cones for the after-party tour or the morning-after recovery table.

Milestone birthdays

30th, 40th, 50th, 60th. Age front-and-centre.

The 970ml jar with the age in our Playfair italic reads as "proper occasion".

Dinner parties

A jar at every place setting. The fudge box for after.

Smaller scale (8-12 favours) so the consumer single-jar pricing usually applies. Same personalisation; same delivery.

Engagement + anniversary

Names and the date on every label.

A keepsake jar that lives on a kitchen shelf afterwards. Pair with the sweet cart for larger venues.

New Year + Christmas dinners

A jar per guest. Festive label.

NYE 2026 · Welcome 2027 / Christmas 2026 with the host's names. Place the order by mid-December for comfortable dispatch.

Adult kids parties (the irony is the point)

Foam shrimp, sour cherries, and nostalgia mix.

Adults at parties want the sweets they had at school disco. Lean into it. Sour pencils, fizzy bubblegum bottles, foam strawberries.

FAQ

Things hosts ask us

+ Are these the same favours you do for weddings?

Same products, same pick & mix, same personalisation engine, different label tone. The wedding hub leans formal (Mr & Mrs · the date); the parties version leans playful (HEN ON TOUR · 50 AND FABULOUS · The Disco Dinner). The same Playfair-italic typography.

+ How much do party favours cost?

Sweet jars from £24.95 per jar at 25+. Sweet cones from £3.70 per cone at 30+. 4-piece fudge favour boxes from £5.50. Volume tiers at 50, 100 and 200 (5/10/15% off). For a smaller dinner party (under 25) the consumer single-jar price applies.

+ Can you do hen-do specific labels?

Yes. The two-line label takes everything from "TEAM BRIDE" to longer in-jokes (HEN OF THE YEAR · LISA WAS HERE · 2026). Coordinated cones for the after-party.

+ Do you do milestone-birthday parties?

Constantly. 30ths, 40ths, 50ths and 60ths are our second-biggest party category after hens. The 970ml jar with the age front-and-centre on the label reads as "occasion gift" rather than "office leaver". Pair with cones for any kids at the table.

+ How quickly can a party order ship?

Bulk party orders go on a 2-week production cycle (the same as wedding favours). Smaller orders are posted within 1 working day of your order.

+ Do you ship the favours to the venue?

Yes. Royal Mail tracked or DPD for larger volume. Hand delivery to Essex postcodes (CM/RM/SS). Tell us the venue address and event date at checkout and we time the dispatch.

+ What is the smallest order you do?

For bulk-priced party favours: 25 jars, 30 cones, 25 fudge boxes. Below that, you are buying individual products at the consumer rate; the medium 970ml jar from /build still gets a personalised label and ribbon, just without the 5%+ volume discount.

+ Do you do alcohol-pairing fudge boxes?

The artisan fudge range (salted caramel, dubai chocolate, banoffee, oreo, neapolitan ice cream and seven more) pairs naturally with espresso martinis at hens, port at dinner parties, fizz at hens. The 4-piece favour box is the standard portion, the 8-piece consumer box scales up.

+ Can the cones travel home in a handbag?

Yes. The cellophane is heat-sealed at the top, the contents are layered to minimise crush, and the cone width is sized to fit a standard tote or large handbag. Across two thousand cones shipped, fewer than ten have come back with structural damage.
