The candy's colors and shapes show through every wrapper.

Individual wrapping

Each piece is wrapped on its own, ready to hand out or add to a favor.

Pre-cut sheets

Every sheet is the same size, with no cutting from a roll.

Three sizes

2.5 × 3.5, 3.5 × 5 or 5 × 5 inches, to match the candy you're serving.

Twist-end method

Wrap and twist; the listing says no tape or heat sealer is needed.

Built for batches

Packs of 300 or 600 make it simple to prepare many individual treats.
