Cookie and Chocolate Favors

I come from a traditional Italian family, where bomboniere, or favors are a ritual for weddings, showers and christenings. They're usually something for the kitchen or a little something that will never be used (and can sometimes be found at the Dollar Store!).
Instead of giving something that will collect dust or be thrown out, why not give a treat that will taste as good as it looks? Here are some pics of my cookie and truffle favors. They are customizable to theme, colour, and flavour and make a real statement to your next event!


This picture is an example of cookie favors for a baby shower. They can be wrapped individually in cellophane and tied with a satin ribbon. The cookies themselves are sugar cookies with fondant and royal icing.
These miniature wedding cakes are actually truffles! You can have them in white, milk or dark chocolate and fit perfectly in one of these boxes:
