Wholesale Dutch Novelty Candy: Chocolate Coins & More
Filter
Gold coins and a candy wristwatch, both from Holland. We stock 15 of these Dutch novelty SKUs, and a case costs somewhere from $28.59 to $59.12. Fort Knox and Gerrit make part of it. Crest of Holland and Peco make more, and Castle has a few. If you only look at two, look at the Milk Chocolate Gold Coins and the Candy Watch.
Dutch Novelty Candy: Coins, Wafers, and Shaped Chocolate
In Holland kids get chocolate coins at Sinterklaas and at other holidays too, so it figures the Dutch got good at coins. The odd shapes came along with them. Our five brands send over coins and wafers, plus chocolate molded into little tools and makeup kits. Letters as well. One of them is a wristwatch you can actually put on your wrist. We haven’t found much of this made at scale in the States, which is honestly why we keep the Dutch brands together on one page. You can get the coins and the wafers in the same order as the shaped chocolate and skip setting up five wholesale accounts to do it.
Nobody walks in needing a Candy Watch. Somebody sees it and laughs and buys it for a nephew. The chocolate tools and makeup minis work the same way, people buy them because they’re funny to look at. So this group mostly sells on impulse or as a gift, and we’d keep it up front where people can see it. In the candy aisle it kind of vanishes.
What’s in the Novelty Assortment
Milk Chocolate Gold Coins come in two sizes, 1.1 inch and 1.5 inch. They’re the coins this whole Dutch habit is about. Pink Its A Girl Milk Choc Coins and Blue Its A Boy Milk Choc Coins are the same coin in baby colors, and people buy them for showers and gender reveals. The Candy Watch is the odd one. You wear it. Satellite Wafers come regular or sour at 1.23oz to a bag. They’re light and crunchy, a nice break from all that chocolate. We think the 1.5 inch coin looks better in a gift bag, but that’s just us.
Then the shaped stuff. Milk Choc Mix Balls are round. Milk Chocolate Tennis Balls look like tennis balls, no surprise there. The minis are the fiddly ones. Mini Milk Chocolate Make-Up and Mini Milk Chocolate Tools are tiny detailed molds, and Mini Milk Chocolate ABCs does the same thing with letters. Kids are who they’re made for. Hobbyists get them too, and so do people making themed gift boxes. Birthday favors and holiday gifts can go in one order with us, which suits a shop whose novelty table changes through the year.
Built for Gifting and Display, Not Just the Candy Aisle
Where does it sell, then. Gift shops and party stores, mostly. Seasonal end-caps move it about as much as any candy aisle does. We think the shaped pieces look right next to greeting cards and gift wrap, and if you already sell party goods you’ve basically got the spot picked out. On a plain candy shelf a chocolate wrench just looks like candy. Next to the birthday cards it looks like a present, and that’s why anyone picks it up. A shop that already has a party aisle could just slide a few cases in there.
Who Buys Wholesale Dutch Novelty Candy
The Candy Watch and the ABC and tool minis go to party supply and gift shops a lot. So do the pink and blue coin sets, for showers and reveals. Seasonal retailers stock the Milk Chocolate Gold Coins heavily around the winter holidays, same as the old coin custom. Toy stores take the shaped chocolate. The small coins and wafers end up as party favors scattered on tables at events. Showers and holidays cover a lot of the year between them.
It’s handy that the occasions don’t overlap much. Gold coins are a winter thing. Pink and blue coins follow baby showers, and the minis and the watch are just gifts. If you carry the lot, your display can shift with the calendar without starting over each season. And it all comes from one place. Less work for you.
How to Order Wholesale Dutch Novelty Candy
No minimum here. Everything’s sold by the case, and you can start with one. You pay by secure card checkout at the listed prices, and approved wholesale accounts see account pricing. A party shop could try a case of the Candy Watch and one of the ABC minis and see what happens. A holiday store might go deep on the coins ahead of the season. For bigger volumes, ask us for a quote.
Our pick to start would be the Milk Chocolate Gold Coins with a case of Satellite Wafers. Give them some time on your shelf. If they move, add from the other brands. Coins are the easy sell in that pair, we think.
