Truly Toffee was asked to create a toffee-filled party favor in pink for Clara’s first birthday party. After some searching to find the perfect color to match the day’s decor, Truly Toffee was able to create an elegantly wrapped 6 ounce party favor that turned out to be quite a hit! The favor was so well received that Clara’s mother was kind enough to send us a testimonial. Thank you Clara for allowing us to be a part of your special day, and thank you Mom for the wonderful testimonial:
“I can’t say enough about the great relationship I have had with Truly Toffee. My first experience with Truly Toffee was when they created favors for 70-80 guests at my daughter’s first birthday party. Their service was very responsive and professional and their product was of the finest quality. When I first contacted them about my event, they immediately came back with several attractive packaging proposals, as well as designs for the personalized enclosure card tied to each favor. The final product was assorted toffee wrapped in pink and brown polka dotted cellophane bag, tied with a coordinating ribbon and perfectly matching the color scheme of our event and exactly as I had specified. The owners themselves personally delivered the favors to our venue ahead of schedule and even offered to help set them out. We appreciated the personal service and could tell how much care and attention they give to their product and their customers. The toffee was delicious and our guests loved them. The flavors are unique and rich, and they don’t skimp on ingredients. So many of our guests came up to us afterward to compliment us on the toffee – everyone wanted more! With such a great response, I put in my next order for 40 favors for a bridal shower I was hosting. I was again impressed with Truly Toffee’s attention to service and presentation. They sent me another beautiful proposal for a pillow box packaging with a personalized enclosure card that matched the colors and design of our shower. The favors were another hit. I’m a very satisfied customer and look forward to giving out tins of Truly Toffee this Christmas to my coworkers.”
