In a stocking.

Answer 2

Depends on if you're buying it or making it. I make fudge every year, so I'm always trying to come up with new ways for presentation. I like to give friends a little something they can keep once the candy is gone. This year I poured it in mini loaf pans and included a knife. Another neat way for fudge is to pour it into metal cookie cutters, let it set, then wrap the whole thing in small plastic goodie bags, cutter and all. They get candy and a cookie cutter.
You can find some pretty glass jars or mugs and place it in those. Trays, tiers, and plates also work. How about pretty dessert dishes or condiment servers? Pile them high with candies and wrap them in plastic, and you have a gift that looks like it came from an expensive boutique. Hope these help.

Answer 3

Put the candy in beautiful Christmas stockings and tie a big red satin bow at the top pf the stocking.

Since it would be costly to fill the entire syocking to the top, add large nuts in their shells at the bottom and place some large tall candy canes on top of the candy with the bent part of the canes sticking up out of the stocking.

A large lollipop sticking out of the top would be cute too. You could add a gingerbread man.

For women only, you could buy some inexpensive cosmetic bags that are clear and fill them with colorful candy. They can actually use the cosmetic bags later. We women can't have too many of them.

You can probably find some small inexpensive evening bags for around $5.00 and fill those. That would be cool.
They come in silver, gold, sequined, beaded and even ostrich feathers. A lot of places sell them that cheap.

That would be an elegant presentation.For another type of presentation, you could buy some loaves of gingerbread or carrot bread. Hollow out the center to make an oblong bowl and fill them with candy. Wrap in colored plastic wrap and tie with ribbon and hang silk tassles from the tie. Stick a candy cane through the knot.

Sounds fun! Merry Christmas!

Answer 4

Get some old fashion brown lunch bags. Decorate each of these bags with christmas tree. Christmas items like oramennts

You can use marker, glitter, anything that would make the bags special for each person.

Then put some tissue paper in and put your candy inside then cover with tissue paper.

Let the peaks of the tissue stick out of the top of the bags.

People will love your art work and your candy

Answer 5

make it yourself and use a nice container with ribbon or bows. The dollar stores have a great selection of containers and decorating stuff. I go to wal mart and buy about 8 boxes of the wal mart brand cinnamon bread and at the dollar store I get a bunch of disposeable mini loaf pans. Each box makes about 4 mini loaves. I then wrap each one in pretty saran wrap and decorate with ribbon and a candy cane. Those are for the teachers and friends in my kids schools.

Answer 6

It's pretty obvious... well you have to make something cute like a sled which you can get at the rag shop and just give them the candy in there. But if its like for a friend and you want to wrap it... decorated cup and write YOU ARE SWEET ENOUGH FOR THIS!!!

but whatever you do try to put the candy in something you made people like that the most :)

Answer 7

My boyfriends brother is a huge fan of the Calgary Stampeders (Canadian Football) so I bought a mug and filled it up with small peanut butter cups. Also did a similar thing for my sister with funky coffee cups and mocha flavored chocolates. Also, I think filling a jar full of jelly beans or other really colorful candies and putting lots of ribbon around it looks nice.

Answer 8

in stead of creative think more on long the lines of excusesm because lets be honest if you are over the age of 7 you are going to be pretty annoyed that all you got is sweets when you can go and get them for a couple of quid down the local shop, however i fin that making a box out of cudboard really gives it a homely and sensative touch x

Answer 9

Grab a roll of plastic wrap and cut out a huge sqaure. The pour a bunch of those little pepermint thing on it in a circle. Wrap it and use twisty ties to tie the ends. It will look like you have one gaint tie-dyed candy.
