Can you ladies help me out?

DD1's birthday is coming up in less than two weeks. We'll be having her party at a nearby orchard, and I've got it in my head to give little "Make your own cadied apple" kits as party favours. Did a little online digging and found this https://ohhappyday.com/2011/10/diy-caramel-apple-kit/ which seems perfect.

Except we don't have Justin's here. And I don't think I've ever seen any type of nut butter (that sounded dirrrrty, didn't it?) in small individual pouches like that before.

My question to you ladies: do you know of brands other than Justin's that would have nut butter in single serving pouches like that?  

I guess I could always do a Nutella packet  imagehttps://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Xp0BHoWBU3Y/TLdYQQRiMoI/AAAAAAAAANU/liYKlFhzdAM/s1600/Nutella30gSingle.jpg" border="0" />

 It's jut not as cute, though.

Edit: I don't know what I'm doing it wrong. Chrome just won't let me post my picture properly. Oh well.

    Thanks Crash, but Amazon Canada suck :(

    They do actually carry those very same pouches I'm looking for, but they're selling them for $60 for 15 units. Plus $10 shipping. And it says "ships in 6 to 10 days".  Ummm no. Not when I know Justin's sells them for $1 each. (I'd order from Justin's directly but shipping would be either too expensive - $70! - or too slow)

    do you know someone across the border who could order it and send it to you? 

    My friends up north do this all the time with stuff they can only get in the states. They buy it/or PayPal money to me and I buy it and then ship it to me and I send it up to them as a gift. 

    I do, but I'm worried it's going to cost an arm and a leg to then have it shipped to me on time for the party. But man, those prices are SO much better than the ones I saw on Amazon Canada, it just might be worth it...

  • I got them!

    USPS was super expensive (shipping with them was $40 without any guarantee I would get my package on time) but then I checked UPS and shipping is only $17, with a guaranteed Wednesday delivery if shipped on Monday - and I have a friend in NYC who will do it for me.

    On top of that, I got free 2-day shipping from Amazon so I don't have to pay any extra for my friend to receive my package this weekend.

    I say, paying a total of $42 for 30 of those pouches instead of $70 for 15 is sounding like a pretty darn good deal. lol 

    And Crash - That was my last resort option. I was hesitant to do it because I am not sure if Almond butter has to be refrigerated once it's opened, but now I don't have to worry about that. Yay! 

    On a side note: good thing it's a slow day in the office. I'd hate for work to get in the way of my party planning. lol

  • Sounds really cute. We have those Justin's packets at Target now. They are pricy but adorable. Glad you got it all figured out.
