Sweeten The Deal

June 12th, 2008 - Posted by Matthew Farmer

Sweeten Your Bottom Line with Candies and Confections

As a retailer, you’re always concerned about the bottom line. A sure-fire way to increase sales and offer customers something they’ll keep coming back for is by offering candies and confections. All the major food chains know that if you ask, “Would you like fries with that?” most people will say “yes.” So, why not incorporate that same selling technique with candies your customers can’t say “no” to? Who can resist a luscious handmade chocolate, an old fashioned piece of candy or a piece of homemade fudge (maybe even made right in your store!)? FGMarket will introduce you to the wholesale candies and confections suppliers who can make it happen.

Eye-Catching Novelty Candy Focuses On Present-day Trends

Novelty candy is a great way to focus in on trends in the market as well as your unique customer base.
Many people find inspiration in little everyday ways. A unique way to inspire your customers is with candy from Scripture Candy. Every piece of candy they sell comes with a scripture verse on it. They have pocket tin candy, gum pocket tins, cream rolls, holiday candy, lollipops and suckers, jelly beans, tubs of candy and chocolate–literally, something for everyone. These make great add-ons to gifts, flowers, gourmet baskets, balloons–or even for the giver’s own pocket!

Chocolate Candy Created With Novelty

Humor is always a great selling point, as Chocolate Crisis Center’s products prove. They offer the “ultimate alternative chocolate remedy” for those in a chocolate crisis. Their chocolate candies are dispensed in Daily Dose, Mega Dose and Over Dose bottles, depending on the severity of the chocolate crisis. Their unique flavors like Candy Apple Caramels, Tiramisu Cocoa Caramels, Chocolate Cinnamon Buzz Bombs and Chocolate Raspberry are sure to heal even the weakest chocoholic.
Gourmet coffee lovers will perk up when they see Acapella Gourmet Foods gourmet chocolate coffee bars in your store. They come in a variety of irresistible flavors like Espresso, Toffee Espresso, Cappuccino and Caramel Macchiato.
Peters Imports offers novelty body candy that inspires in a rather different way. Their Chocoholics Body Talk Tattoo Kit and Body Frosting are delectable and edible. The Body Frosting comes in Chocolate and Chocolate Wild Cherry flavors. They also make chocolates that kids will enjoy, like their Madelaine Chocolate Crayons, a variety of chocolate “insects”, and mesh bags of chocolate sports balls for soccer, basketball, baseball, football and golf, which make great party favors or team treats. They also offer boxed candy like Anastasia Coconut Patties, Key Lime Coconut Patties, and Bodgons Kahlua Candy Sticks.

Chocolat by Quintessential Chocolates offers exquisite, handmade, liquid filled chocolates your customers won’t be able to resist. They specialize in spirits, wine, coffee and fruits for the liquid centers in their chocolates. Their flavors include Kentucky Bourbon, Crème de Menthe, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cappuccino Coffee, Southern Pecan Coffee and Raspberry Chocolate, just to name a few.

A Candy Gift For All Tastes

If you have a customer base of dog lovers, dog bone shaped mints will be a hit with them. Blizzard’s Bones packages these peppermints in tins and promise an “exhilarating rescue from stale breath.”
Fruit candies are especially tempting when they come from the sunny orchards of the historic Shenandoah Valley and Millcroft Farms Company. They fill their apple candy with the finest apples and nuts available for a taste of old-fashioned goodness.

Old Fashioned Fudge A Tasty Reminder Of The Past

Nothing says old fashioned goodness like homemade fudge and Arndt’s Fudgery knows what that’s all about. They offer 75 flavors of fudge including vanilla fudge, sugar-free and low-carb varieties. Some of their special flavors include Oreo Cookie, Dreamsicle, Key Lime, Caramel Apple Pie and German Chocolate Cake just to name a few. They also make selling their confections a piece of cake with support items such as display cases, candy bags, fudge boxes, stainless steel spatulas and “Fresh Fudge” banners.
The fragrant smell and sweet taste of fudge will draw people in should you choose to make fudge right in your store. Yohay Baking Company provides fudge mix and the equipment to simply and easily make this delicious candy. Giving a tempting treat to customers is a great way to say “thanks”.

Bulk Up Future Profits With Candy & Candy Displays

Bulk candy from Tropical Foods is a great addition to your product line. Choose from favorites like rock candy, candy corn, jelly beans, hard candy, gummies, gumballs, and Jordan almonds among other varieties.
Candy Concepts specializes in wholesale candy displays, candy fixtures and containers for point of purchase retail stores. Their pre-filled candy displays are easy and make great use of space.

Offering sweets like chocolate candy, novelty candy, bulk candy and fudge can insure a steady stream of revenue for your business. Don’t miss out on this satisfying way of turning sweet treats into sweet profits. Let the wholesale candy suppliers at FGmarket help you take advantage of your customers sweet tooth.
