There are so many ways to say thank you! But my favorite? Why, the favor, of course! It’s just a sweet little sentiment to say a non-verbal thank you. From the beginning, we knew that we wanted to do edible favors. With edible favors, guests rarely wait 30 seconds after sitting down to gobble the goodies. Here are my top contenders for edible favors:

Silver Jordan Almonds: I love that they fit our color scheme, are pretty inexpensive, and very yummy. The only downside is that they may be a little too traditional for me. Jordan almonds are probably the most standard edible wedding favor, and I don’t think I want standard. Coating them in silver does turn them into chic little nuts though, don’t you think?
Our second option is:

Mini Cookies: Either baked by me, or ordered from Mrs. Fields, who doesn’t love cookies? I’m certainly leaning on the Mrs. Fields side of this one. It’ll save me a lot of time and money, as I usually get a little too ambitious when I’m baking. I can already see myself, $500 later, wondering what other type of cookie I can come up with. It’s a disease. I’m convinced. And speaking of being overly ambitious, our third, final, and favorite option:

French Macarons: Ever since I came across Mrs. Perfume’s macaron post on the ’bee, I’ve been intrigued by those adorable, colorful, delicious looking desserts. Nevermind that I had never actually tasted one. That was until a few weeks ago, when the FI and I were on a weekend getaway and I spotted this great little shop called Le Macaron. I bought every single flavor they had, and now I’m obsessed. Once we got home, I started baking like a mad woman, into the wee hours of the night, trying to perfect this little pain in the a-star-star of a treat. 3 batches later, and I had finally found my niche (I’ll post my method later!). I love a challenge, and perfecting these temperamental little buggers was SO gratifying. But, as much as I love them, they are quite a bit of work and I’m not sure I’ll be prepared to handle the added stress in the days leading up to the wedding.
What do you think, should I take one for the team and whip these babies up for the wedding? Or should I go the easier (and less stressful) route of simply buying and repackaging the favors? Which edible favor would you prefer?
