We are sharing some simple and sweet Valentine's Day packaging ideas with you! Showcase a few homemade sweets along with some store bought confections to surprise your friends, family or your sweetheart! With a few of our pretty packaging supplies and some delectable treats you will have a pretty presentation that is sure to please all of the sweeties in your life!
You can find a variety of fun packaging supplies in our shop to make your Valentine's Day packaging easy! Mini candy bags, berry baskets, takeout cups and a box with a heart window are just perfect for a pretty Valentine's Day presentation. Add some bakers twine, gift tags and mini clothespins to complete the look.
Sometimes there is time to make homemade treats and sometimes there isn't. We've got you covered either way! Some of the packaging ideas we are sharing are simple but provide a sweet and classic look. It is amazing what a little bakers twine and a cute tags will do!
If you are short on time you can pick up some delicious Gabi and Lisette chocolates and soft caramels (that can be found at most Target stores) and package them up in a half pint berry basket with lid. Add some Valentine's Day bakers twine and one of our mini heart gift tags and you have an adorable presentation in no time! We found out that our mini 3" pie pans fit perfectly in the berry baskets! Want to make something yourself? A mini pie or a rich chocolate truffle pie topped with sprinkles would make a pretty presentation too!
Some fun ideas for kids would be filling our small white box with heart window with gumballs or a big cookie...or many minis. Tie some bakers twine around the box and tuck into place at the breakfast table as a sweet surprise! You could also place it on a pillow so they find it when they get home from school! If you are looking for a fun way to package up little candies or chocolates try using our mini candy bags. Close them with a mini clothespin and a mini tag, then add it to their lunchbox for an extra treat!
Have you ever made caramel popcorn? It is delicious and Shauna will be sharing her recipe next week! We've packed up her Maine Sea Salt Caramel Popcorn with Chocolate in our small red chevron takeout cups. You can personalize the cups with a sharpie by writing a sweet note or what is packed inside. Either way the cups make for a fun way to display your sweet treats! The cups are very sturdy so they would ship well too if you need to mail your Valentine's Day Sweets. Use them for packaging up spiced nuts, candies, chocolate bark, cookie dough and even ice cream.
We hope our simple and sweet (pun intended) Valentine's Day packaging ideas show you how you can easily turn store bought or homemade treats into a pretty presentation!
