Arrived quickly, exactly as requested, and taste really good. My daughter was so excited for her party treats. Thanks!

I ordered the chocolate poker chips for my nieces wedding and she loved them. Scott was very helpful when I had a change in the layout. I received the chocolate when expected and in perfect condition even though it was 99 degrees the day they were delivered. Thank you!

Excellent service…the coins were there far sooner than I expected! I’m a chocolate snob and thought the coins were scrumptious. Loved having choices for imprints. We did a Cruise Ship Dinner and when pirates invaded, they brought their booty of chocolate coins to the guests. Made a great hit!
The frozen gel packs were super. Will DEFINITELY use your company again!

Why Do We Give Out Candy at Halloween?

Think of Halloween and your mind immediately goes to kids in Avengers costumes going door-to-door in pursuit of a scrumptious chocolate treat. Anything but the big orange peanut.

But the history of Halloween is a far cry from today’s modern celebration.

Halloween began as a religious holiday in the Middle Ages when it was called All Souls Day. On this deeply secular day, christians would go from village to village begging for “soul cake” in return for offering a prayer to the dead of the families they visited. Quite a difference from today’s experience of “give me a Kit Kat or I’ll egg your cat.”

The practice of children dressing up in costumes and going to door to door is a relatively modern one. It began in the late 1930’s and it wasn’t until the 1940’s that the present concept of Halloween became widespread in the U.S. Even then, candy wasn’t the definitive treat. As a matter of fact, the focus then was more on the “trick” than the “treat”. It was the one night of the year when kids’ (mostly young boys’) pranks were tolerated. The point was to be mischievous, not to collect treats.

In the 40’s and ’50’s doorbell-ringing ghosts and goblins were as likely to receive cookies, coins, nuts or small toys as they were to get candy.

During the late 1950’s candy manufacturers saw the rising popularity of Halloween and capitalized on the opportunity to expand their offerings. While Easter and Christmas had long been major holidays for the candy industry, Halloween’s growth gave them another rapidly rising demand for small, affordable candies. During this time, it became more and more expected that the handouts would be candy, culminating in the 1970’s when it became THE definitive Halloween treat.

Nowadays, Halloween doesn’t have any of the original religious connotations that were the impetus for the holiday in the first place. Instead, it’s morphed into a night of fun-size Snickers gobbled down by precocious tots dressed as Thor and Lady Gaga. I hear they’re dating actually.

The candy was delicious. The order was timely, as promised…Great customer service! The monogramed coins were used to decorate the tables for a wedding. They were a true conversation piece. Thanks for your prompt delivery, quality product, and excellent customer service.

Brandy McLin

We ordered some custom coins for our upcoming wedding. We were very pleased with how they turned out, how quickly they shipped, how easy they were to order and customize and most of all how good the chocolate is. Thank you!

Marcey

BEAUTIFUL and DELICIOUS!!!

Gaylen

We ordered the dark chocolate coins with our company logo for our year end meeting and they were a HUGE hit! Such a hit that they want to order them again for our next event. My only regret is that I didn’t stash more away to snack on later!

Kate

They turned out amazing and actually tasted great! I also loved that they were shipped with frozen gel packs so that they didn’t melt. Very thoughtful. Can’t wait to order more from y’all. Thank you!

I am using the coins to market a new IT tool that is being introduced into our company. The Foiled Again coins puts a new spin to the saying “word of mouth”. Yummy! There were issues with my Foiled Again order (airplane problems) so my delivery was behind schedule. Foiled Again took it on their shoulders to send my order via two day delivery therefore I received the coins on time. That is customer service! I will definitely be ordering more Foiled Again coins in the near future.

Carl

Scott and company have created a product that is not only appealing to the eye, but appealing to the pallet. In the future, I do plan to use Foiled Again! for my chocolate needs. They were on time in all steps of the way, with a fine product. Thanks!

Carol Dawson

I use my coins as incentives to get participation during training sessions. Foiled Again coins are affordable and have excellent customer service. True professionals all around.

Denise

My daughter (and all the rest of us) couldn’t be happier with the coins. They were beautiful and delicious!! Not to mention fantastic customer service. Thank you thank you.

Kim and Robert
