would you like this as a favor-BE HONEST

Original post by Espo22

Ok i want real honest opinions, i am not set on these at all. I was looking for fondue sets and found a bunch of wholesale places but none list the price you have to contact them to inquire bc depends on how many you get. The others ones are alot nicer but im worried what the cost will be, im calling a few places now to see.

I did see these in my search, unlike the others it doesnt have the serving set and its a bit more plain but still kinda cute.

Honest opinions,if you dont like it PLEASE say it. I want to get a general idea of what ppl think to see what my guests would really think.

Hopefully one of the other fondue sets i like better, the price won't be bad and i can get those but just in case

I am a huge fondue fan and I love it!!! I think it's such a cute idea and not everyone gives fondue favors so it's different. Go for it!


yeah i LOVE fondue too, well i especially love cheese fondue YUMMM but yeah i figure theres quite a few ppl who wont care for it. It can be cute bc you can also give the packaged fondue chocolate do a milk chocolate and a white chocolate packet

you can never go wrong with something edible. thats what im going with because nothing annoys me more than spending $$ on favors and people dont use them. for example we gave out the love coasters at my shower, i thought they were cute and figured people would actually use them until i was in my aunts car the other day and saw her favor on the side of the passenger side seat.

so edible and donation favor im going with.

since you did cupcakes maybe you can do box of chocolates or cookies wrapped real nice in your colors?

yeah i love edible favors, always great.

UGH im sorry but yeah honestly when it comes down to, just about every favor somebody wont use it and not like it. I see things that others love but i just have no use for it and vice versa. People do coffee type favors and i never drink coffee, people do wine themed favors and i dont drink wine, then if you buy something will it match the decor of their other stuff and some people are so particular about this. So you win some and you lose some lol

thats what im saying - no matter what you pick your going to have the same reaction - there is no favor that i can think of that every single guest would like and enjoy - its impossible to please everyone - hey, you want to know what - if i got a fondue set as a favor and i wasnt a fondue person i could always re-gift it and give to a friend or something no but seriously, like if FHs mom went to a wedding and got that as a favor i could totally picture her asking FH and I if we would want it b/c she would think it was cute for us.....i mean you couldnt do that with a cookie

SO true, i cant think of a favor everybody likes either, its impossible. HAHAHAHA re-gifting works, i dont drink wine but if i got a bottle of wine as a favor i would love it because i can just save it for company.

Even edible is hard but still think can be the best solution. Some people are allergic, others dont like certain things. Eh what can you do

Re: would you like this as a favor-BE HONEST

I really like it, I think it is very different. I do have to say that I personally love fondue, but I do have a small one and I have never used it (I had it for over 3 years)
But I do know a lot of people would use it and a lot wouldn't---I think you take a gamble no matter what favor you use
