Mini Glass Candy Jar Favor (Candy Not Included)*
These miniature glass candy jar favors bring back childhood memories of regular visits to the candy shop. Each candy jar can include a delectable treat, chosen by you, so the favor tastes like your event as much as it looks like it. Candy is not included, which is exactly why hosts like them: you decide what goes inside, whether that is the pastel mints that match your colors, the sour candy your niece begged for, or something from the shop the two of you always walk past.
At 2.75" x 1.75" the jar is small enough for a place setting and steady enough for a buffet. Set a row of them beside the dessert table with a scoop and a sign, and guests fill their own on the way out; or fill them ahead, line them along the escort table, and let each jar hold a seat. Clear glass shows the color of whatever is inside, which is why a candy bar built on these jars photographs so well under string lights.
The mini glass candy jar is a great favor at birthday parties, wedding receptions, bridal and baby showers and any special occasion. It is a suitable gift for both the young and old and is a fun way to offer guests treats at your event. Long after the last handful is gone the jar stays useful on a desk or a shelf, holding paper clips, hair ties or spare change, which is more than most favors manage.
To add a special touch, personalize each jar to bear our thank you labels. You may have the bride's and groom's name or just a single name printed on each label according to the occasion, along with your date or a short line of thanks. The wording is printed on the label that goes on the jar, so your names sit right at eye level as guests reach for the candy.
Choose your quantity, add your label wording above, and let your guests help themselves.

Which one should I choose
Shoppers usually weigh the glass jar against the paper and pouch favors that hold the same handful of treats.
| Mini Glass Candy Jar Favor with personalized labels | Choose it when the favor should carry your names and date and stay useful on a desk long after the candy is gone. |
|---|---|
| Mini Glass Candy Jar Favor without labels | Choose it for a small party, or when you are under the 12-label minimum and the jars are being used for a self-serve candy buffet. |
| A paper favor box or candy bag | Choose it when weight and packing matter more than keeping the favor; it will not be refilled or reused. |
For a candy table where the favor should outlive the candy, the Mini Glass Candy Jar Favor with a printed label is the pick.
