Spooktacular Fortune Cookie Halloween Treats


That's right. Halloween fortune cookies! Don't think fortune cookies fit in with the scariest season of the year? I certainly didn't until I saw these fun fortune cookies that come in pumpkin orange and witch hat black!

Whether you are having an adult only costume party or a kid friendly apple bobbing, this year Halloween won't be complete without some outrageously spooky fortune cookies. The best combo I've found is the Outrageous orange fortune cookies dipped in dark chocolate! After all what use is Halloween if you can't have chocolate.

All the cookies come individually wrapped so they are extra easy to hand out. And the best part is, you can personalize the fortune cookie messages! Try some fun Halloween jokes, spooktacular naughty adult humor, or just be creative and write whatever pops in your head.

If this doesn't quite fit what you are looking for, here are some other great favor ideas I have found.
1. Other Fun Candy Party Favors
2. Halloween Haystack Favor Bags
3. Family Fun and Party Planning

Fortune Cookies for Wedding Receptions


All you bride's out there looking for a new, fun, and unique wedding favor idea should read this. Melissa is now a raving fan of Fancy Fortune cookies! Here's what she had to say about the fortune cookie favors she used at her wedding reception - They were also fortune cookie gifts for the guests to take home!

Erin, the fortune cookies were a big hit at our wedding reception!

We ordered our fortune cookies with 5 funny marriage quotes. The cookies were then placed in small chinese take-out boxes that were given away as favors to our guests.
While on our honeymoon, we found a silver fortune cookie shaped box. We're going to keep one of each of the fortunes from the cookies in the box as a keepsake.

The service was fantastic! My questions prior to ordering were answered promptly, the cookies arrived on time, the fortunes were exactly what I ordered and the cookies were delicious!

Several people said that the cookies were the best fortune cookies they had tasted. We joked that we would keep a stash of your fortune cookies for when we order Chinese food in the future to replace the sub-par cookies provided by the restaurant.

I was very, very happy with my experience with Fancy Fortune Cookies! I can't think of anything you could have done better. I don't have pictures of the fortune cookies, unfortunately, but I do have pictures from the reception of the Chinese take-out boxes that the cookies were placed in.

I can't say enough how pleased I am with the cookies and the service provided.

Thank you!
Melissa S.


Here are the wedding fortunes from Melissa's fortune cookie favors.

I was married by a judge. I
should have asked for a jury.
~ Groucho Marx

Marriage is a three ring
circus: Engagement ring,
wedding ring, and suffering.

A wedding is a lot like a
funeral, except that you get
to smell your own flowers.

Marriage is nature's way of
keeping us from fighting
with strangers.

All marriages are happy. It's
the living together afterward
that causes all the trouble.
