Corporate Picnic Party Platters and Ideas for Planning

This is the time of year when many companies plan their corporate picnic or meeting events.  And for human resource representatives, managers and small business owners planning an unforgettable day for staff, clients and colleagues can be a challenging task, particularly when it comes to the food that will be served.  Dessert is always the course that so many people attending your event will look forward to.  We would like to mention some of the trends in chocolate and candy for corporate events, like picnics that are becoming smash hits and are being utilized to increase the corporate brand awareness, while at the same time, giving a unique spin on the typical dessert served.   We hope you enjoy these suggestions listed below of our favorite ways to incorporate chocolate into your corporate brand for any type of event you may be planning! 

1)            For some of our corporate clients a summer BBQ or picnic is a perfect time to show the fun side of their corporate brand with some party platters filled with great, assorted chocolates and business card bars with the corporate logo on them. Dessert platters with hand-dipped fruits and pretzels are a favorite and employees feel the team spirit immediately when they discover your corporate logo is on the platter!

2)            Don’t let your guests leave empty handed.  Make sure you have plenty of logo branded chocolate lollipops so that each attendee, whether they are employees or customers can take home a small gift of your appreciation.   

3)            Planning a gift basket giveaway or door prize is another fun way to create excitement and foster the team spirit.  Choose a corporate branded gift basket that not only gives a beautiful presentation, the person who walks away with it have your company logo and they will be delighted to find the wonderful array of chocolates and candies along with those logos too!

4)            Corporate awards programs are another great way to garner some team spirit and create motivation in your employees, especially when the program is part of the picnic event. Along with a certificate or trophy, give your employees something they will definitely appreciate – corporate chocolate bars!  We can make the bars with your logo and even custom design the wrappings with your corporate event date and title.

These are just a few of the ways Suzi’s Sweet Shoppe has been helping local companies with their branding and outreach efforts.  If your company is planning an event and needs help with dessert party platters, favors, gifts or giveaways, be sure to contact us today.
