Happy (nearly) Fall!

noreply@blogger.com (Candy Blast) — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 18:51:00 +0000

Happy Monday everyone!

Here in Knoxville TN the kids had their first day back at school. In my mind that means just one thing - fall is (nearly) here! While my AC is actually still cranking away in my mind it's already cool breezes and open windows. From a business stand point that means that we are nearing the end of needing ice packs to send chocolate bouquets, and that can only be a good thing :0)

We'ld love to send a big thank you to everyone that added those ice packs, chose air service to the far off reaches of California or Washington, and to everyone that sent a non-melting fruit candy bouquet to Arizona as no ice pack in the world can stand up to 115 degree heat!

You are fantastic customers and we salute you!

We look forward to the day when we can remove that ice pack check box, and open the $10.95 ground service back to all the states. In the mean time while we put up with these last few weeks of heat, please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Happy end of summer!

Did you all remember to move your clocks forward an hour? It will be nice when spring finally arrives with pretty flowers and warmer days.

Here at Candy Blast we have some exciting new things springing up for the new year. Look for fun new products coming soon, but in the mean time you can keep up with us on Twitter!

Visit our Twitter page at www.twitter.com/candyblast and see what we are up to. We will be using twitter to reach more of our lovely customers, and will be posting special coupons and contests exclusively to our twitter followers!

Never twittered before? Heard about it on tv but not sure how it works? Send me a quick e-mail and I'ld be glad to help you figure it out erin@candyblast.com

And now for the rest of February....

Before we knew it Valentine's was behind us and we have a little bit of February left to enjoy before we jump into planning our Easter gifts.

We hope you all had a fantastic Valentine's Day and would just like to take this moment to thank you, our wonderful Candy Blast customers, for another fantastic holiday. You seemed to really love our new baskets! The "My heart belongs to...." customizable bouquet sold out so fast! Next year we will definitely be ready for that one! The "Hook, Line, & Sinker" was also so popular we've decided to keep it around for a while.

As always we would love to hear from you! Let us know if you received a Valentine basket from us, if you wanted to receive one, or even if you looked on the web site but didn't quite see what you were looking for. All messages are quickly sent to the applicable members of the staff, either to let them know what a great job they are doing or to let us know what new items our customers are looking for. Please send any and all comments/questions/thoughts to me at erin@candyblast.com. I look forward to reading all of the messages, and you never know when I might send a coupon back out as a thanks for your time!

Enjoy the rest of your February everyone!

Our busiest time of the year is here!

It's November already!

noreply@blogger.com (Candy Blast) — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 20:12:00 +0000

It's hard to believe that October is past and Halloween is behind us! All of our ghosts and goblins flew out the door leaving plenty of room for snowflakes and Santa.

Interest in our Holiday bouquets seems to be earlier than ever this year, so we will be posting some of our customer favorites from the past years on our web site soon.

If you are in charge of organizing your companies holiday gifts and don't see exactly what you are looking for please feel free to either give us a call at 888-442-5278 or e-mail us at customerservice@candyblast.com and let us know what you are looking for. We are already helping several clients prepare their employee and client gifts, and we would love to work on yours as well. As we get closer to December we will have less time to create your custom holiday bouquet, so if you have some specific ideas in mind please contact us soon. If you do not have your client list finalized or budget approved yet, that's no problem either! We offer several bouquets that we can alter by changing the color or adding your company logo which we would be glad to create for you right until the first week of December.

An Exciting New Web Site on Monday!

noreply@blogger.com (Candy Blast) — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 21:30:00 +0000

Hello everyone!

We wanted to let you know about some exciting changes here at Candy Blast!

We have just finished taking wonderful new photos of our Candy Bouquets and we are really pleased with the way they turned out. Now you can see our great new bouquets as well as the fun changes we have made to some of your old favorites (New colors! More candy!).

These photos will look really great on our brand new web page! We have spent a lot of time making sure everything is just right, and we love the way it turned out.

We will be uploading it this weekend, so on Monday August 4th please take a moment to visit us at http://www.candyblast.com

Send us an e-mail and let us know what you think! We always love to hear from you.

You can reach us at customerservice@candyblast.com, and to thank you for your time we'll be happy to send you a coupon to use on your next order.

Those changes are the most obvious, but we have some fabulous things happening behind the scenes as well. We have really reached our limits in our current space, there is candy everywhere! So it's time to move to a new office. We have found a really wonderful space that will allow us to have more room for the builders, storage, shipping...everything! We really look forward to the extra space so that we can continue to offer you great new products. We have some exciting things up our sleeves and we just can't wait to make those ideas into realities for you!
