Party Favor Poll::: Which one??

in June 2011 Moms

I know I want to give out something edible, so I came up with cotton candy. The birthday girl will be the youngest at the party by at least 2 years, so the favor is geared towards the bigger kids.

I found two options -- same price ($1/each). which should I get?

I'm leaning towards the bucket because I can decorate it with ribbon and a "thank you" tag... but the bag has more cotton candy in it (2 oz vs. 2.8 oz).

So, Option 1:

Or 2:

    have you tasted them both? I've had that bucket, my grocery store carries it, and I didn't really like the taste/texture of it. Not that a bunch of 6 year olds care, but ya know... :)

    They sort of taste the same (neither like real cotton candy but not horrid). Just make sure there is a lot of air in the bags if you go that route as the cotton cant tends to get hard the closer to the exp. date.   The buckets you have to make sure the candy is filled to the top, it starts to sink when it gets old.

    *Can you tell we eat a lot of candy at our house...LOL

    I like the bucket because the bag sometimes has yellow in it which is gross and just wrong. Seriously, lemon cotton candy? Who thought of that?

    I just noticed the lemon on the bag -- gross! I don't even think a kid would want yellow lemon-y cotton candy. I think I'll go for the buckets!

    i'm going with the bucket because it has a lid!  and if my kid were given cotton candy, i'd like to be able to put it away or contain it somehow.  Stick out tongue

    maybe include a moist towelette with each bucket?
