Planning a baby shower for a mom-to-be is a task you want to get just right. You’re celebrating one of life’s major milestones and you need bulk candy that measures up to the challenge.

Since pink and blue are the traditional baby shower colors, you’ll find a lot of pink and blue here, but we’ve added some non-traditional options too.

Over the last few years, gender reveal parties have become a popular adjunct to the baby shower. As a result of cell-free fetal DNA testing being available as early as ten weeks , parents may wish to share the sex of their child. A phenomenon fueled by social media and originating in the United States, the popularity of the parties are spreading to other parts of the world – including Australia, Canada, and the UK . Typically held earlier than baby showers, the invitees often include both men and women.

Pink and Blue Baby

If you like the idea of sharing the baby’s likely sex, there are  plenty of ways to heighten the fun. Keep guests guessing with Baby Reveal Buttermints with wrappers that say Team Pink, Team Blue, and Girl?Boy. Or try Blue and Pink Gummy Bottles.

Celebrate the bundle of joy with Baby Ruth, sweet chocolate and a reminder to savor the good stuff.

Ready to reveal the gender? These bubble gum cigars are an update on a tradition. Each box comes with 36 cigars printed with either “It’s a Boy” or “It’s a Girl.” Choose your color and peel back the blanket on this big secret.

If you prefer a chocolate treat for your gender reveal try It’s a Boy and It’s a Girl Hershey Kisses.

What’s cuter than baby fingers? Only adorable baby toes. These sweet blue foot pops and pink foot pops will hold you over until you can kiss those little baby feet in real life

Show your love for the new baby (and mom) with celebration Shimmer hearts in light pink or powder blue.

For a sophisticated baby shower treat, get pink Jordan almonds or blue Jordan almonds. They look lovely in a bowl at each table or package them in taffeta bags as a sweet party favor.

And while we’re on the subject of party favors, consider personalized candy bars. You can get any of your favorite candy bars including Hershey’s Milk Chocolate, Hershey’s Special Dark, Mr. Goodbar, Krackel Bar, Nestle’ Cruch Bar or Bit-O-Honey Bar with a customized wrapper that includes your text and even a photo on a festive background. It’s a personal gift your guests and the mom-to-be will love.

Non-Traditional Options for Baby Showers
