Candy Makes Recognition Events Sweeter

Andy Warhol may have been correct when he said everyone would get to be famous for 15 minutes. Or at least he was close. It seems that almost every professional, volunteer, teacher, healthcare worker, librarian or basic employee has a special day or week when they get recognized for their contributions to their organization, community or country.

While compensation is always appreciated, a pat on the back is often just as important. Throwing a party, luncheon or dinner to recognize individuals who have gone above and beyond the call of duty is appreciated and it builds morale.

So what kind of party should you throw. Should you buy balloons and streamers? Serve pizza and ice cream? Sure. The more fun the better - it's a happy occasion!

Speaking of fun, what's more fun then candy? Chocolate bars, lollipops, mints and cookies make tasteful and tasty treats that make your celebration even more festive. Do you know that you can get candy and chocolate treats with special messages to honor your staff? There are specially engraved and wrapped chocolate bars, lollipops with imprinted sticks, shaped chocolates and much more.

So many important recognition events will be here in the coming months such as National Volunteer Week, Teacher Appreciation Week, Nurses Week, EMS Week, Safety Month and Nursing Home Week. And many companies have their own special employee appreciation events. Decorate your celebration event with delicious chocolates and candies and watch the smiles.
