At the risk of sounding insensitive due to the recent events here in NY (which I am not...I am just trying to keep busy)Can anyone give me the email address for the bottles of syrup in the shape of a maple leaf? I remember not too long ago someone on the board had said they had gotton them and they were a great idea.
I am using small maple leaf shaped bottles of maple syrup as my wedding favors. However I would absolutely positively not recommend the vendor, Buffum Maple Products, that I got them from. First of all, I called to order them several months ago. I was told to call back in July so that I would get the freshest syrup. I called around the 3rd week of July and placed the order. When I had not gotten them 3 weeks ago, I called again and found out that nothing had been done. They promised me that they would be sent out on time for delivery before 9/12. On 9/6 I called them again and was told they would be sent out on 9/8. Still no favors. I called on 9/10 and was told they would be going out the next day. Well I was supposed to have them by 9/12. They were coming from Vermont and no way would they make it by regular mail. After telling them that they could send them overnight by Fedex or not at all, I was told they would be sent on 9/11 overnight at ther expense. Well...we all know what happened that day. Needless to say I didn't get them in 1 day. They came yesterday and we discovered that on the labels, which have our names and wedding date, my fiance's name was totally mispelled. So now we have had to make our own labels with the correct name. And I paid extra for them to take care of the labels. I know that there are several other websites that have the same product. You might want to do a search for maple syrup and find one there. Just don't use Buffum Maple Products.

Thanks for the info. I am sorry that happened to you. I am actually looking for a friend of mine...I have been married for almost 2 years now. Best wishes on your wedding!
Thanks....we are getting married on Sunday 9/23 so it has put a last minute rush on something that shouldn't have been a big deal. All has worked out though!!
