Your nugget treats are really cute. I love the topper you put on them. I have bought address labels with Santa faces or candy cane stripes before at Hobby Lobby, and they are the perfect size to wrap the candy in. Good luck at the festival.

I had watched so many videos trying to get the right measurements for the tray. All of them were too small for my nuggets. They were all at least 2 years old, so I was thinking they changed the size of the nuggets, shrink flation? Anywho, your measurements fit my nuggets PERFECTLY. Thank you so much for sharing and showing me a much faster way to make these.

I absolutely love your craft fair ideas! Although this one is not new I still like to see everyone's spin on a classic. I've tried these a few years in a row and have never had much luck with them. The first year I tried them I did them as a variety pack as you have done but so many people came up to my booth asking about them and more often than not I couldn't sell them because someone with a nut allergy came up and asked if they contained nuts. Since I mixed them with the almond ones I could not sell them to the people with allergies so in that sense it sort of hindered my sales. The next year I tried them again but made sure I kept all the different types together in one pack and made sure to mark which contained nuts. The second year was better than the first and I definitely sold more of the plain than the others but still it was never a good seller for me and I'm not sure why. I only used to mark mine at $2.00 although I can't quite remember how many I had in a pack maybe it was 5 or so. Either way I love to see videos of people trying different takes on them and it inspires me to try them again but food items are a risk for me since they cannot be stored away for next year as some other craft items can. Anyway enough of my ramblings, I wish you well on your upcoming craft fair and look forward to more of your craft fair videos. Good luck, thanks for the inspiration and take care.

I had the same problem my first year selling them. The 2nd year, I still did variety packs, but I also did some variety packs without the one containing nuts. That year I sold out halfway through the first day. I spent all night making twice as many for the 2nd day. It's funny how some things sell like crazy one year and not at all the next, or even from one craft fair to the next in the same year.

@@tonileigh8660 oh that's a great idea variety packs without nuts. I know so many crafters who sell out on these and I never sold very many. It makes me want to try them again, the only thing is I'm very cautious of perishable items as one year I made tons of candy items and I got stuck with them at the end I even gave some to friends and family and I still had many leftover.

@@twiztedlettesl I had a friend with a lot left over last year. They didn't sell much at all at her sale. After giving a lot away, she took the rest to a church she knew that was giving Christmas baskets to local families and they were so happy to get them. They asked her what it cost to make all of them and they gave her a receipt for a charitable donation to use at tax time. I don't think she used it, but she was happy, the church was happy and I'm sure the families who got them were too. A couple years ago I had a couple tables with nothing but food/candy type things and it almost all sold. I had those packs, chocolate and white covered pretzel sticks with and without sprinkles, cinnamon and spicy roasted pecans, about 6 flavors of truffles in 4 & 8 pk boxes, Hershey kiss trees and I'm sure there was something else but I can't remember what. If you make them again, I wish you good sales and a fun time.

@@tonileigh8660 that's a great idea to donate them to the church, maybe I will give them a try again and if they don't sell it would still give me happiness to give them to the church or the less fortunate. Thanks for the inspiration take care and God bless
